I have never in my life seen such horrific and inhumane behavior.

Many a times we believe that it is only a man, who knows nothing about childbirth and a mother's love, that could commit such disturbing acts.

I never thought a woman could do something like that. Is it in our (women) nature to do something like this?

I was so heartbroken when saw the torture that this baby was going through. At the time, when I watched the video clip, I was in a court room full of attorneys, court officials and police officers.

I thought to myself it is up to us as to stop this nonsensical behavior. I will be following this woman’s case to see the outcome thereof.

If this woman pleads insanity and succeeds, I will surely be convinced that there is no such thing as justice.

I am a mother, I felt that toddler’s pain, mostly emotional than physical. For a moment I regretted watching the video because that it haunted me throughout the whole day.

How can we protect our children? How are we going to be able to trust our nannies?

It hurts to know that these kinds of people exist in our society.

God help us.
