WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. - A woman accused of strangling her daughter on a college campus apartment in Purchase, N.Y., told police she did it because the daughter was "disrespectful all the time," according to court papers made public Thursday.

killing your kids is not discipline, its a complete absence of discipline.

This is not discipline. Discipline seeks to correct behavior. This is elmination of a percieved problem by a sick person.

I pray the mom never regains her senses because then she'll realize what she's done. I'm convinced you have to be crazy to kill your own child.

Yes and why was the mother there at a college apartment? She could have just gone back to her own home. It's more like she chased the daughter down for the reason of starting up problems with her.
