I am so glad that everyone who posts here is Perfect!

Beeeecause this place would absolutely implode if something horrific were to happen to any of you. I mean, just picture all the finger pointing and name calling that would go on during your most trying hour...

How about a little empathy and compassion?  No one is perfect, people make mistakes... and there are evil people that prey on others.  I hope none of you ever has a mis-step and are taken advantage of or hurt..

    Wow, where did this come from?  And I can tell you right now, that I'm far from perfect.  I won't even come close.  All I can ask is that my kids are happy, well-adjusted, and are productive members of society.  If that happens, then I will feel I've done a good job.  Most of the other stuff is too small to sweat.

    I promise I feel empathy and compassion in my heart, but I would never display such weaknesses on the board.

    Listen, I'm not- and never will- say I'm perfect. But I do take certain things very seriously. Maybe it's because I live outside a city that has crime. Maybe it's because 50984035 million times a week another story just like the one below is posted. I don't know. But I absolutely do not take chances like leaving my car on and my child in it when I'm not.

    It doesn't take a perfect mom to know that this can lead to bad situations. Taking a chance that nothing will happen is not a bet I'd like to wager.

    Now is not the time to sit back and call this woman names or point fingers.  I cannot imagine the pain she is going through... Honestly I get nauseated thinking about it.  I would hate if something horrific happened to me and people just sat back in their high and mighty judgy chairs saying what a shittty mom I am..

    What's done is done... the ridicule isn't going to help... Your prayers will though!

    AMEN!

    I try to stay away from the judgefests, because I've been around the child rearing block a time or two.  Some of the things that are judged the most here make my eyes roll right out of my head.

    Pumpkin, I would hope that you know me well enough by now to know that I am one of the most compassionate people here. However, I don't know this woman. Of course I sympathize with her! Of course my heart breaks for her! But that doesn't mean I agree with her bad judgment. If I knew her, I would absolutely be comforting and supportive. But I don't. I know her and her situation by an article.

    You can still pray!!!!  :)  I know you mean no harm.. but dang it's a real person - who was honestly probably massively sleep deprived.  She screwed up, she knows that.  No one needs to beat it into her head. 

    It was a great thing to point out to help others for sure, but I cannot judge her.  I just can't.... not with the pain that I know she's in.
