No details of the girl’s injuries have yet been released.































































































People being paid to breed is the problem as now, more and more ‘unsuitable’ have children for the lifestyle it gives ‘them’ not caring or loving the child.
Drugs, drink, or ‘mental health’ will ensure a short pathetic sentence to carry on their useless state funded breeding programme though.
Seriously, people should have to have a licence before having children – 5 simple qualifications 1) have a job 2) have own home 3) no substance abuse 4) eighteen and over 5) most importantly married and have to stay married until youngest child is 18.
This is not really the way forward I have no qualifications. But have a very good job. Rent my house private. Not married but been with my girlfriend 7 years. We have a 1 year old and she is the most important person in my life and would never do anything like this. Definitely don’t need qualifications to be a decent person.
Unfortunately the most important person in your life, your daughter, is technically and legally a bastard. Not the best start in life is it?
Aren’t you charming. My abusive father left us when I was young, oh and both my married parents worked and owned their own house. Later my mother became a functioning alcoholic, not the best start in life is it?
Who in their right mind injuries a year old baby!!!
