"The mother felt like she had no other choice"?? Are you kidding me? This idiot knew exactly what she was doing. There are plenty of choices. Who's really at fault here? Was it the guy who got her pregnant or was it hers for having the sex? If you are not going to take care of your kids, then you should'nt have any..NOT ONE!! She deserves the death penalty, anyone who kills a child to make their life better doesn't deserve to have a second chance with anything. You say this little boy that she has will grow up and know that his mother was murdered for her wrong doing..I say Good! First off, it will teach him what happens when you are stupid, and second there are worse things that could of happened to him being in the care of this crazy women! So just be happy that he will get to continue his life and make his own choices, hopefully they will be better choices than what his mother made!
