I wonder how this kind of news article affects children today. When I was a kid, there were no detailed reports of mothers either killing their children or being suspects in the deaths of their children. Now, when I read such ominous news I have a hard time conceiving of a mother killing her baby but apparently, today’s children will not have the luxury of growing up with that ‘bias’ or ‘blindspot’. *sigh*
Well, I don't believe kids actually read the news...now or then. Did you?
I guess you would first need to define kid
“When I was a kid, there were no detailed reports of mothers either killing their children or being suspects in the deaths of their children.”

When I was in about Jr. High there was a case of it. A four year old was murdered and police could never determine if the mother or “mommy’s boyfriend” did it. This was in the 80’s so this was shocking. No one would believe this “mother” would just let him hurt her baby! In fact it came out in trial that he was beating not only the four year old but her two year old son and her as well. She got up once with the two year old to stop him from beating the four year old and he yelled at her to “sit down” and she did! The girls body was thrown in the Kanawha river and never found. She got the worst of it in the trial when in fact after all I know after reading about “mommy new boyfriend” on Free Republic I truly believe he did it! She was just a retard.
