I think we all unfortunately realize that there are people out there doing this everyday with kids of that age or younger. I don't give a crap if it is or isn't considered neglect by law because anyone who is a good parent knows that it's neglect. And they wonder why their kids are:

  • Pregnant at age 12.
  • On a missing child posting at the local grocery store.
  • Drug addicts.
  • Failing school.
  • In Jail.
  • Dead.
