those babies, they are innocent
These past two weeks of reading news stories about innocent babies’ futures being put on the line has really made me wonder what’s with some parents.
First there’s the octo-mom and her 14 kids, some of whom may end up or have ended up with ADHD, autism, cerebral palsy and who knows what other learning disabilities common in multiple births. I feel sorry for the poor babies who have to live with lifelong disabilities through no fault of their own.
Then there’s the latest news about a 13-year-old fathering a baby girl with his 15-year-old girlfriend? Gosh, now this really takes the cake! Who’s to blame, the teens or their parents? Either way, the poor baby’s future is again at stake here.

oh i didn’t know that the multiple births babies may have those problems
poor thing. i just don’t get it why the mother wants so many children despite reading about her reasons. *shake head*
and the 13-year old boy? now there’s news saying that he may not be the father because the girlfriend was seeing other boys too at that time
@mommy to chumsy

Ya, if you ask me, he looks like he’s too young to have fathered the child. I wonder if he’s even reached puberty
