[QUOTE="Lil, post: 646706, member: 17309"] I agree with Albatross...that just broke my heart to read. I remember once when my son was very young...I suddenly realized I understood why someone would beat a child. I remember vividly sitting in a rocker at about 3 a.m. and he wouldn't stop crying and I was soooooo tired and I actually wondered, for just the briefest moment, if it is possible to smother someone with a pillow long enough to make them pass out, but not do any actual damage. :people_crybaby: Obviously, I didn't do it. But I realized later, a little less self-control, a little more drinking or drugs, a little more stress, I could be that person who snapped. Even though I was not that person, I was a much better parent after Jabber was in the picture. But the kind of cruelty in that statement..."I'm not reading this :censored2:", I don't understand that. I don't understand a mother who would hurt a child like that. I don't understand MWM's mother, the things she's disclosed, to be cold and unloving toward your own child. Here we are...all of us with children who have caused us no small amount of pain, who have said cruel things to us, who have stolen and lied and broken our hearts...and I doubt any of us would ever consider saying such things to them.
