I hope they take that baby away from mom and she never sees it again. Even if grandma has custody right now, mom doesn't deserve to see this child until she's had tons of therapy, parenting classes and a good spell in rehab.

As for the stillborn baby, those parents need to sue that hospital for every penny they've got. How traumatic this whole experience must've been for them!

Outrageous. I have always been disgusted by any adult that would drink to excess and then try to handle an infant. I have seen it too many times and you just want to grab the child away from them and ask them what the hell were they thinking?
Even the Mr. did this once after coming home from dinner with a colleague and after I rattled him for it, he never did it again.

Isn't it so ironic that there are such great people out there who would make great parents, are great people and are dying for children and they arent able to have them ? Idiots like this shouldn't be able to have them. Its just so unfair. Poor baby-I hope Grandma is better to her than her "mother"

unbelievable about the baby in jerusalem. If it had been in the US and Obama was in charge, he would not have let the baby breathe, but smothered the baby., Look at his history of voting the most eerily frightening pro life ballots ever. He is pro third term abortions and anti providing those children born living in third term abortions and assistance at all. Please don't delete this. google his record on abortion and be very concerned the cold blooded monster the liberal press is trying to get you to elect.

Hey gabby
No, I don't think you're feeding the trolls. While it's an extreme opinion, that's just what it is, an opinion. If it bothers you, try to ignore it. :)

So sad the baby in Jerusalem died.

Oops: I see above I posted on the wrong thread. The wrong blog actually. :) my bad.

The hospital caused so much heartache for this poor family.My heart aches for them.

Re the views i expressed, they are not mine, but Barack Obamas. I am sorry that shocks you but that just proves how little you know!

jj is NOT me, by the way. I know some of you refer to me that way. Just wanted to clear that up. I don't want to be associated with those extremist, propaganda-laden views that jj is spouting off.
