I'm BEYOND angry about this. BEYOND angry. A black woman left her kids in the closet with food, drink, and entertainment while she went to work; THEY ARE ALIVE, and she faces 15 years in prison. This chick "forgets" her child, the kid DIES (a horrible death), and doesn't even get
charged. BS. All day long it's BS. You can call it race, you can call it class, I call it BS. She forgot. Ok. How do you work in a SCHOOL and forget about a CHILD? I can't go 8 hours without thinking about my manfriend and he's GROWN. So how you forget about your child? Do people seriously drop their kids off at daycare and then don't think about them until it's time to pick them up? Stopping to get donuts threw you off your routine? So you never stopped to get gas? You've just never stopped in the morning? But you stopped to get donuts and then forget you had just put a kid in the car BEFORE you stopped to get the donuts. It's BS.
If it's not, I need for ONE GreekChat mother to tell me about the time she just forgot all about her child.
And when did forgetting stuff get you off the hook? If I get stopped for speeding, can I say I forgot I what the speed limit was? Can I walk out of a store without paying and say I was so overwhelmed with work I just forgot to pay? Can someone just leave their kid at home and say they forgot to take the child to daycare? When did "I forgot" become a valid EXCUSE?
