It also pains me and makes me furious to no end when children come in and they have been abused. I also took care of two newborns today, one of which we didnt think was going to make it because they were born addicted meth. I also consider that abuse. One baby, the mother had left the hospital on friday and she hasnt been seen since. That baby doesnt even have a name  They should shoot the mother when they find her. |
I know how you feel! It just breaks my heart in a million pieces to have to remove them from a house because they have burns on them from where their parents have punished them with a lit cigarette. When they get in the back of the ambulance, they are just so helpless. It's painful to think someone would do that to a child that can't defend theirself or chose what happens to them. Heartbreaking. I agree with you that children being born addicts is also a form of abuse. Most of those cases don't end well or last long.
