A flame that isn't hot will not cause recoil. We need to UP THE PAIN FACTOR on bad choices. Then we will see new behavior to avoid the pain.

At the present time we encourage burned babies in ovens because we support single moms, recreational sex, drug use, and irresponsible absent fathers. We actually PAY PEOPLE MONEY to encourage these things because we take survival behavior off the table.

There would be few out of wedlock babies and broken families if going that route meant you really truly starved. It's called reality. Welfare is evasion of reality. Not to mention theft from good people to support the bad people.

And this goes for all people in every neighborhood in every state and every community, race, color, religion, sexual orientation, disability, and any other irrational subdivision one wishes to invent to support their equivocations.


No need to preach to me I have never birthed a child out of wedlock nor received welfare so take your holier than though wagon on down the road.

Your silly post offered a teaching opportunity, so I took it.

Oh dear God that poor baby. And the "mother" has an older child that wasn't in the home, and is pregnant by the boyfriend. No words.

We certainly learned a lot about the dark side of humanity in your post.

There are no "parents", the "mother"(I use that term loosely) was out with her boyfriend. Horrible story, but there are no parents, that is problem.

Don't be so hard on yourself, your reaction can lead to introspection, and that may lead you to self-improvement.

Mom of the week is 7 months pregnant with her current boyfriend. Sad.

This article is incredibly poorly written. It's as if news organizations no longer have proofreaders or editors.

I am even starting to see this. I am not one for questioning articles, but lately some are misspelled words and leaving out important parts that tie a story together. Must be that expensive college education these people are getting.
