Mother admits to putting 2 year old in oven

[Adam Jensen]

God, people who can't be decent parents shouldn't be parents. This is why I'm for abortion/birth control/adoption/abstinence/all the works. If you can't be a parent, don't be a fucking parent.

Ether that or high on some mind altering drug. Of course some people are just evil. But in this case, I would vote mental illness.

I'd say having a heavy evil streak is a mental illness in itself. If she were a sadist, I highly doubt the kid would have lived as old as 2. Best telling is if there were other signs of abuse, very little is explained so far.

The small silver lining I see in this is the child is still alive and won't have to remember much of that twisted parent. Hope he/she is moved to a caring family.

Yea, what the fuck entire state of people who obviously held several meetings to discuss the conspiracy of collectively burning a child together as a group.

There may be some elements of mental illness and/or drug abuse. Unfortunately, it was a two year old ... known as the Terrible Twos or as the Chinese say "at that age even the dog doesn't love them". This wouldn't be the first time someone tried to do away with a kid with the idea that the evidence can be fed to the dogs or the rats. She may not have had the nerve to smother or knife the kid, but perhaps thought it would die quietly in the oven.

Edit:

High Overlord Saurfang says: I think it was the sounds of the draenei children that unnerved most of them... You never forget...
High Overlord Saurfang says: Have you ever been to Jaggedswine Farm? When the swine are of age for the slaughter... It's that sound. The sound of the swine being killed... It resonates the loudest. Those are hard times for us older veterans.
Garrosh Hellscream says: But surely you cannot think that those children were born into innocence? They would have grown up and taken arms against us!
High Overlord Saurfang shakes his head.
High Overlord Saurfang says: I am not speaking solely of the children of our enemies...
High Overlord Saurfang pauses.
High Overlord Saurfang says: I won't let you take us down that dark path again, young Hellscream. I'll kill you myself before that day comes...
Saurfang turns away and looks at the map instead.
Garrosh Hellscream says: How have you managed to survive for so long, Saurfang? Not fallen victim to your own memories?
Saurfang turns around for a moment to answer.
High Overlord Saurfang says: I don't eat pork...

I wonder what her defense would be...?

"She just liked to sleep in the oven, kids ay?"

Oh no, it looks like Floridan waters have reached Texas... Let's see how long it takes for them to get here.

Mental illness?

Single mother. She's probably exhausted on top of anything else there might be. Not trying to excuse her but, yeah.

[Vinictus]

This comes to mind

thats taking the saying "a bun in the oven" a little too far.

[Sandraudiga]

Just put her down.

How do you get severe body burns but not mild/severe airway burns and suffocate in this context?

It actually takes air a while to heat up, as it's a strong insulator (the insulatory material in fiberglass is actually the air pockets, not the plastic) and most of the hot air in an oven will escape when the door opens. By contrast, it only takes a few seconds to receive second-degree burns from contact with hot metal, let alone proximity to the heating elements. Clearly, she either didn't have the will to go through with it and turned herself in, or the neighbors heard the racket the kid was making and stopped her (but that would be odd since she was the only adult present when the cops showed up).

Yeah. Some feel that way. Thankfully however we executed Ted Bundy and a few more like him. But we should not be executing or sending to prison for a long time those with a mental illness.

The topic is harmless because it isn't called "Mother admits that 2 year old was tasty".

A match made in White Trash heaven

[Ciddy]

Uh....yeah, there is obviously something very wrong with this lady. I hope she's not allowed to be unsupervised anywhere near the kid again for a very long time.

[Blueobelisk]

The article doesn't explain why she did it though. I'm very curious.

What's the difference between a pizza and a toddler?
