David · 10-06-2003, 05:03 PM

that 2 yr old girl that was left alone in her apartment for 19 days?? She was so hungry that she crawled to the pantree and ate raw pasta. She lived though

(i dont think that its a big national story right now. But I know it is something that got talked about on CNN and stuff.... so someone might know what im talking about)

Well it was in Jacksonville, where I live... and they're gonna be on Dr. Phil today (whenever that's on)... and I just found out that that girl was left in the apartment complex just 5-7 minutes away from me....

I just thought that was interesting. lol. Have you guys heard about this?? Cuz its all over the local news here, and they've been invited to some national shows....

I haven't heard about it, but it makes me sick. The thought of that poor baby eating raw pasta makes me want to take a fistful of raw spaghetti and slam it into the eyes of whomever was responsible for her care.

yeah me too. The Mom went to jail and the Dad wasnt allowed to see the kid, so the kid was left alone.

gosh..

It sounds like there's enough blame to go around. The parents are dirtbags. That goes without saying.
However, the state should have made sure her child was being taken care of during her incarceration. The poor baby slipped through the cracks.

I read about that, they need to lock the mother up and throw away the key.

-*Leah*- · 10-06-2003, 05:56 PM

Yes, I heard about that. Its so sad, and the person responsible for that, should be put in prison for the rest of their life.

The Modfather · 10-06-2003, 05:58 PM

Yeah, I heard this. At least she's alive!!

They did lock up the mother....before they even found the girl!!

Hollow · 10-06-2003, 06:00 PM

Smart girl. if those damn people cant take care of their baby then maybe they shouldnt be parents.

Unwanted Angel · 10-06-2003, 06:03 PM

No, i hadn't heard about that. It really pisses me off tho. I think someone should beat the crap out of that childs mother!

Lucylover22 · 10-06-2003, 06:04 PM

Shows that parents don't watch their kids anymore...

TJL · 10-06-2003, 06:07 PM

It amazes me that so many kind, loving and caring people cannot have kids, yet complete idiots can...

Brian Damage · 10-06-2003, 06:22 PM

As long as that little girl is ok, that's what's important.

PZelda · 10-06-2003, 06:50 PM

I did. The toddler also lived off ketchup packets and when authorities found her, she was in the tub (no water in it, I am assuming) watching cartoons...What a smart little tot! I'm glad the kid's OK now but the parents should be locked up.

Liza · 10-06-2003, 06:58 PM

I hadn't heard about that.

Poor thing. Thank God she's okay.
