So are some adults, and dropping a seven year old off at an airport, no matter what the woman was dealing with, and expecting him to just survive and take care of himself was also evil.
I actually used to teach a kid who was definitely evil, and I won’t teach anymore because he really made me sort of jaded, so I definitely do NOT think that all kids are angels. Snort. Not even close. But this woman made what she claims was an intolerable situation into a criminal (or at least amazingly unethical) one.
And really, isn’t passing judgement on people a main part of being a Freeper? :)
From the AP:
Speaking from the home in Shelbyville that she shares with her daughter, Nancy Hansen said a social worker checked on the boy in January and reported to Russian authorities that there were no problems. But after that, the grandmother said incidents of hitting, kicking, spitting began to escalate, along with threats.
“He drew a picture of our house burning down and he’ll tell anybody that he’s going to burn our house down with us in it,” she told The Associated Press in a phone interview. “It got to be where you feared for your safety. It was terrible.”

This hardly sounds like an evil kid. Sounds more like a kid trying to deal with a bunch of stuff. An angry kid without coping skills and without sufficient language skills taken to a new country. Kicking and hitting and one picture. All of which occurred in the last 3 months. Hardly sociopathic behavior.
