WTF is wrong with people? Srsly.

A 28-year-old woman in my state "did not know she was pregnant" (yeah, RIGHT. She has 3 other kids) - gave birth to a baby girl in the bathtub, and promptly drowned it. She then wrapped it up and took her 3 other kids out to a dumpster somewhere to dispose of the body.

I can see how maybe a teenager might not know she's pregnant. Irregular periods are common... if she's on the heavy side I suppose it wouldn't be a really noticeable weight gain... teenagers are more able to live in fantasyland... blah blah. But this lady? No. She's just evil. Sorry.

Yes I can say that without knowing the whole story, because it's my journal :P

Usually, only animal abuse stories get me so riled up.

I knoooooow. I feel sorry for those other 3 kids. Dad is still in the picture, at least.

Oh my God!!!!!
Regardless of whether or not she knew she was knocked up, why kill the kid???

so sad, and sick to make the other kids help!!

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Well, the article didn't say whether or not the other kids knew what she was throwing away... I certainly hope not!

Why kill the kid? Because it's the obvious solution if you only want 3 kids, not 4. *shudders* Yeah, I mean, there's not gazillions of people out there who want to ADOPT kids or anything.

Shit, there are people who will PAY you, plus all your expenses, to adopt your offspring. :(

A tragedy on all sides.

As if not knowing you're pregnant is a good excuse to murder your child and leave it in a dumpster. -_- Some people really are wastes of flesh. I lightsaber her so hard!

I guess the logic is "temporary insanity"? "OMG I was so shocked I had a kid that I had to drown it!"

You should zock her next time she gets in the tub.

[hourglassfull.livejournal.com]

She isn't worth that. I'll have one of my minions take care of her.

I don't understand how anyone can kill babies. Sure there not always cute but their helpless & human beings.& there are lots of people who want to adopt.
