[QUOTE="Star*, post: 283678, member: 4964"] TM - thank you so much for your reply. My own Mother was abused in her home and had NO ONE - not one single person to tell her anything positive about herself or her life. She turned out the be the best Mother ever. When I tell her about the things that Dude does to me/others - she shakes her head and says repeatedly - "We all have choices." and leaves it at that. So I know where you are coming from. My Mom told me stories that were just brutal. I'm every so thankful she chose to be the kind of person she is with her children. WHen I bring things like this to her attention - she votes death penalty saying he had a choice. SHe makes NO excuses for monsters like this. She makes no excuses for her grandson's behavior either. She says he knows right from wrong - he chooses wrong 90% of the time - it gets him in trouble and then he's sorry - but she belives he's really only sorry he got caught. She may be right. If I had been on the jury - for the man who was so violent to his child killing her - I would have had a hard time putting him to death - BECAUSE- I think he deserved to live the rest of his life, every day, behind bars, without the possibility of parole. To kill him - let's him off easy from a life that didn't seem to be much as a child, wasn't anything as a teen, and in his early 20's caused him to abuse and kill his own child. I don't think he ever learned how to love or be loved. I would have a hard time putting a man to death for that. EVEN THOUGH - he admitted guilt 110%. The case yesterday was a man who kicked his 3 year old in the head and stomach over potty training issues. He's ALSO from a sordid background and is being held in jail on 100,000.00 bond. The paper reports that he did ask in court several times about how the baby was. People here are outraged. My comment was that if he was having trouble with issues over potty training and kicked a 3 year old in the head making her severely retarded - now she's going to have potty training issues for the rest of her life. So the question du'jor ladies - Would this baby - be better off had the father killed it - KNOWING it's going to be severely mentally retarted, blind, deaf & have numerous complications to health for the rest of her life? Woudl you give him the death penalty if you could for his act? Or should he spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole. He admits to being guilty - and has been charged with endangerment of a child. Sure didn't seem like much for what he did. [/QUOTE]
