HOW MUCH IS THE LIFE OF A CHILD WORTH TO YOU?  \n\nRead Love's 360 page, which includes a Newspaper Article, depicting the horrendous tragity the Smith Family has suffered.  \n\nTHEN PLEASE HELP;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;\n\nAgain, please, make a seperate email address and 360 page for Mr. Smith, and the story of the Family, and Darius.  People are still looking at Your personal information, and loosing sight of why they are there, to read about the life lost of a beautiful six year old boy.  The entire site and 360 page needs to be dedicated to Buddha.  Since the two of You do not have a Comupter, why not go to a Large Electronic Store, or if You have   a Wal-Mart, go there, and talk to Them about Your mission, and see if They might be willing to donate a Computer to Your cause.  That will help You greatly, You will need a printer as well.  Wal-Mart is usually very good about helping out.  Don't take no for an answer, negotiate.  Go personally and have a meeting face, to face, it is harder to say no that way.  Just hand them the Newspaper Article, and sit there while They read it.  Make sure You have an appointment first, don't just walk in.  Make sure that You have written down the two areas You are working towards.  Stronger Laws for the Serious Harm and or Death of a Person, due to the Negligence of a Drunk Driver, behind the wheel of a Motor Vehicle.  And the fact that You want the Person responsible, for this horrible Crime, to spend more time behind bars, than two Years.  You feel that the life of a Child, and the injured bodies, and crushed dreams of two more, deserve more than, as stated in the Newspaper Article, high privledge status, by the inmate.   Inmate#37191.  \n\nStay at it, and God Bless\n\nAnd for those who do not read this tragic story, that could happen to anyone, God forbid,  How much do You think the Life of a Child should be worth.  It is hard to get over soemthing while You are still in the midst of it.  Open Your Hearts.

the legal system has seriously failed this child, and besides the murder ... \n\nI, personally, would react by taking my child and running, far, far away. Screw the judge that put my child in a pedifile's hands! You have a moral obligation to protect your children, and that rates above and beyond any court decision. \n\ndepends on how you feel about being a kidnapper?

It is nothing new.  It has being going on since time immoreal.  It effects all classes of society, all professions, all religions, the rich and the poor, the young and the old.  It is a curse.  It ruins more people's lives than any other form of abuse.  The do-gooders claim that the perverts are ill and need treatment.  They pay far more attention to them than they do to the victims.  Pedophiles are manipulative, clever and use tactics that can only be imagined.  I will not give any details but suffice is to say that they use language, threats and intimidation on their child victims.  The vast majority of men who have been indecently assaulted when young, seldom if ever tell anyone about their experience.  Most women also keep it 'secret' only informing their husbands when things go wrong much later in life.  Consequently the perverts appear to be 'getting away with it'.  I have worked in law enforcement and everytime the issue of capital punishment arrises (UK), I honestly and sincerely advocate the death penalty for anyone committing a serious sexual offence on a child under the age of ten.  I really mean it.  In my experience, and in many documented cases, they are incapable of being 'cured' of their sick and evil habits.  If an animal was to do what some of these people do to their young, they would be 'put down' immediately. Some of the true stories that I was told by young and indeed elderly people about their experiences as much as fifty years ago would make the strongest of stomachs, retch.  Teachers, doctors, judges, police officers, solicitors, and any other group of people you can imagine are preying on the young of society in every country of the world.  It is a sad, sad state of affairs when we cannot protect them.

I am extremely sorry to hear your story and you have my hearfelt sympathy.  I can only imagine the deep pain of hurting you must go through everyday.  I really feel for you and I hear and support what you are saying about paying more attention to your kids and looking out for any early 'warning signs'.  I can't really advise you on anything you're asking for but I just wanted to write and wish you well, may God help you in whatever you do.

Is this the arsehole who suffocated his daughter to teach his wife a lesson for having an affair? The man should never see the light of day again. I think they should bring back hanging for twisted little sh*ts like him. Anyone who harms or kills a child should be dealt with using the most severe punishment available. There's no excuse for it whatsoever.

Good.  It was a horrible idea to have it in the first place, and kudos to all the women and men that fought so hard to get it overturned.  I have a feeling if it would have allowed it with cases of rape, incest, and the mother's life in danger, it wouldn't have been overturned, but that is the extreme right's fault for assuming everyone is as radical as them.  So it is a great day!

~~ACTUAL AUSTRALIAN COURT DOCKET 1265-\nCASE OF THE PREGNANT LADY~~\n\n A lady about 8 months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed the man opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to another seat.\n\n This time the smile turned into a grin, so she moved again. The man seemed more amused when On the fourth move, the man burst out laughing, she complained to the Driver and he had the man arrested.\n\nThe case came up in court. The judge asked the Man (about 20 years old) what he had to say for himself. \n\nThe man replied, "Well your Honor, it was like this: When the lady got on the bus, I couldn't help but notice her condition. She sat under a sweets sign that said: "The Double Mint Twins are Coming" and I grinned. Then she moved and sat under a sign That said: "Logan's Liniment will \nreduce the swelling", and I had to smile. Then She placed herself under a deodorant sign that said, "William's Big Stick Did the Trick", and I could hardly contain myself. BUT, your Honor, when she moved the fourth time and sat under a sign that said, "Goodyear Rubber could have prevented this Accident"...I just lost it."\n\n~~"CASE DISMISSED!!"~~

Wake up to yourselves, FOOLS!

Most of the bad things that have happened to me have happened in my childhood.  Being abused by my mom's boyfriend when I was 12, being sent to foster homes, her marrying him after she was told about it, not meeting by biological father until I was 13.  Since I've become an adult my middle child was diagnosed with a rare liver cancer at two weeks old.  She was given 8 rounds of chemotherapy and had 80% of her liver removed when she was 7 months old.  I was on stand-by as a donor because they weren't sure they'd get it all.  Although in the darkest hours it's hard to think God was really there, but He was and I'm stronger for it.  My daughter is a thriving "terrible" healthy 2 year old and I have a 8 month old son and a 5 year old son who are healthy too.  It's easy to lose perspective and be negative, but good things are just around the bend.

Abusing a child for reporting sexual abuse.\n\nWhat kind of message does that send?\n\nHe should have to at least do supervised community service.  Something positive for the community and a learning experience for him.  \n\nFace it, the molester probably won't get much jail time.  It's infuriating, but true.\n\nHe definitely doesn't need to counsel anymore!\n\nIf he is sincere, but horribly misguided, maybe he could be rehabilitated in some way.  Sadly some people are in the ministry who just have no business being there and it's a cover for their maladjustment.\n\n\nThat poor girl!  Personally, I don't think her mother is without fault in this, either.  She probably gave him permission.

As sad as it sounds, yes the uncle will more than likely be charged with child abuse or endangerment. My friend was done like that. Her kids beat her up and if she tried to protect herself they called the law or social services. She has battery charges against her and the kids were taken. She only disciplined them not abused them. The way the laws are today any kid can hollar child abuse and get by with it and the parents pay no matter what goes on. How's that for the gov't getting involved. Things should go back to when parents took kids out to the woodshed and a lot of things would be better. I know cause i was raised that way.

I believe the reason no one else has answered is the same as my reason, but I figured I may as well tell you.  I do not like to answer questions that expect me to "hit the blue line" before I do.  I have been burned by viruses (virii?) too many times, and too many times simply found that the next thing wanted was my contact information.  Then spam comes spewing out my email inbox like the owl post to Harry Potter in the first movie!\n\nI love kids, and hate to think of them being abused, but I know that such a tear-jerker cause can be exploited shamelessly by people who are far more interested in their own agenda.  I do not want to fall victim to those types anymore than I want kids to fall victim to any abuser.\n\nThere are also sensitive issues about false claims of abuse during heated divorce cases, people who consider the term "child abuse" a convenient buzz word every time a parent disciplines a child, however mildly, etc.  There are people who would force parents to surrender their rights to their children to "security," as our federal government has asked us to surrender our right to privacy to "security."  There are people who would shut down a day-care center on charges of abuse, when what they really want is to gain control over the children themselves.\n\nIt's a mean, mean world out there, and I hope you are sincere.  I'm not convinced this is the way to go about what you are trying to do (I hope) to help the kids themselves.

Did she leave on her own, as a father of 4 I realize you may never know the answer if she decided to strike out on her own. I think if an abduction were involved it would be easier but reality not to many get involved for someone doing things on their own. I myself was involved looking for a 12 yr old girl named Cora Jones in WI who was a victim of a serial killer. Believe me I understand and wish the best for every person young or old in this complex world. I'd love to help if I could.

Do I think it's wrong ?  No.  I think a child exposed to many cultures and places is a good thing .  I think a child cared for is always a good thing no matter where they might be at the moment.  I think a child feels home is more about the stability of the key adults in their life then about location.  I think it's great that Brad and Angelia are using their resources to help children who may otherwise have very bleek futures, it's commendable.  I also think everyone is angry with them for hurting Jenifer who was like Princess Diana "down to earth" a common soul.  I think for this reason attempts are made to make them the union of Sodom and Gommorah.  The reality is those buying tickets to the firestorm from heaven may as well get in the refund line.  It's not happening.  I think traveling with children is the least of the worries for this couple.  Now let's get outraged about B.Spears and her baby in her lap not buckled in.  Here are two people caring for kids who wouldn't have many options apart from them and maybe they will marry, maybe the won't but they've both stepped up to plate for other peoples children.  That's more then many do for their own children.

I believe that some one (well, specifically a newspaper journalist) has done some checking and found (from court records, one assumes) that child murder has stayed more or less constant (and very low) over the past 50 years or so. That statistic implies that children are as safe now as ever they were, but the public  _perception_,  due to a few high profile cases, and publicised heavily by the media,   is that every child is in danger from every adult male - which is a gross insult to 99.9 percent of men.  Such a view has resulted in a lost and bewildered child in a shopping mall being ignored by males in case they are accused of molestation; in fewer men going in for primary school teaching (hence male role models are reduced); and a fall off in men and (women for that matter)  taking leadership positions in youth organisations, from cadets to scouts, guides etc., for fear of being accused of misconduct.\nIt comes to something when an adult of the 'tribe' can not comfort a small member of the tribe who has, for example,  fallen over, or is  in distress for some reason.  I recall as small boy walking into a bus stop post,  badly cutting my head.  A man came over to help, put his handkerchief on my bleeding scalp, held my hand and walked me home.  My mother was so grateful that some one had cared enough to help her son.  Today, that man no doubt would have left me alone  in case he was viewed as a paedophile.   What a sorry state our society has entered.
