Cripes! Something like this probably happens more often than we know
Mom Charged With Killing Girl With Bleach: "A woman angry with her 12-year-old daughter for having sex forced the girl to drink bleach and sat on her until the child died, a police detective said. The girl's 9-year-old brother was forced to watch the attack, Detective Warren Cotton testified Thursday in a preliminary hearing for Tunisia Archie, 31."
This made me so incredibly sad. There's a part of me that really and truly hopes that the mom was a drug user. Should I say "mom" in this case? It's clear she wasn't a real "mom." Maybe I should be kind and say "birth mother." Actually, "egg layer" came to mind first. Then I thought something so bad I immediately blotted it out of my mind.
Lord, I'm sure you, in your mercy, have already accepted this child into Heaven. Please be with the remaining child. Comfort him for his loss and the mental scars he will likely bear the rest of his life. I also ask that you extend your love to Ms. Archie that she might ask your forgiveness.
