i am in TOTAL SHOCK!!! how could anyone think of hurting a child, especially their own child. i understand the reason for this would obviously lead to the parent being upset and yes, saddened, but to actually kill her..... well that is just totally unthinkable. and for her to force the younger child to watch this, well, i guess the mother is seriously unstable. what i am thinking is (A) how would a child of 12 know what sex is, and why would she be sexually active, unless she had seen it with her own eyes, and (B) what affect is this going to have on the young boy when he grows up?? is this in any way going to lead to the boy thinking that this is normal behaviour, and that this is what he should do to his children?? does any parent who does something like this, ever think of what it will do to the children when they grow up??? i really dont think so??? what do you all think??
