Court Case Closed On Mother Of Baby Killed By Puppy
I agree that others were in the home at the time, however I have always seen the parents to be the ones that are held accountable in the eyes of the law. I also think the mother of the young lady in this case could have used a little help as well. Seems to me if the family was helping in raiseing this child, then the family should have given the teen mom a little more guidance in the situation. Woke her up, put the baby in her room, put the dog out, or heck even fed the dog probaly would have helped. I hope the young lady gets help and her life is better in her days to come.

Court Case Closed On Mother Of Baby Killed By Puppy
Trust me I am far from ever being an angel, and I have made a few bad choices in my lifetime so far, and I am sure to make a few more. However I do not believe in your fate, I believe God makes my path, and I know with him I will always walk in the light, no matter what. I agree this girl for that is what she is a young girl still in mature statue, was decided in court, but I stand by that she still needs help, punishment is not for you or I to say, but helping is..and this girl needs it bad. Her choices ended up with a baby being EATEN by a dog, a puppy at that! The pain that child must have went through! Can you not picture a baby 2 months old, screaming with every bite, and getting weaker by the blood loss. Helpless, while his MOTHER lays in the other room?? She made the choices she made, and now she needs to learn how to better live her life and make better un-selfish choices! She needs help, rehab, something, so she will grow and change her life and be a better. (Sunday Nov 1 | post #154)

Thirteen Deaths Now Attributed To Swine Flu In Oklahoma
So a parenting class will help me figure out if my child is worth the risk that may come along with a brand new shot that may or may not harm my child in years to come? I will look into that, and I am guessing you will be the parent sitting next to me in that class right? I just thought you would be, seems you are so willing to take anyone telling you something is safe to take, and line your children up to have this shot. Just for the record, my children have never had the flu vacine, and they have never had the flu. Wash your hands, and stop picking your nose and I am guessing you and your family will be ok as well....Just guessing. (Oct 28, 2009 | post #15)

It has nothing to do with luck my dear. Nothing has been wasted on me, or you for that matter. God loves us all the same. Period. You are so sure this young mom only fell asleep and did nothing wrong! I am so sorry for you. You make it seem like she is an angel. I am sorry, but her choices in life had a horrible outcome for the baby. I have never condemned this girl. I stand by my opinon and say this girl needs HELP. Help from a program or somthing that can help her! She needs something, you do not just sleep though a screaming baby, I just do not belive that. I have my newphew staying with me and I can tell you when he cries I hear him! I hear him when the door is shut, and I am in my room with the door shut! You listen for your children, even when you have been up all night. That is part of being a MOM! You made a choice to be a mother, so she should have made better choices to keep that baby safe. She needs more help than the system gave her, so this does not happen again in her life. Patterns of bad choices tend to repeat in young people's lives, she needs help. (Oct 28, 2009 | post #120)
Teens Nabbed After Tulsa Bar Robbery Overnight
Teens robbing, teens killing, teens always in the news. Where are their parents? And why are these children not supervised in their lives? Try them as adults, they are ready to do adult crimes, they should be ready to do adult time. This is getting out of control. (Oct 28, 2009 | post #9)

thank you for this information. I will pass it on to my family. I am glad I am not the only person in the Tulsa area worried if this shot is the way to go for my family. I am just not sure we all know enough about the side effects yet. Blessings (Oct 25, 2009 | post #9)
Court Case Closed On Mother Of Baby Killed By Puppy
I have my douts about a shot that we do not really know the affects yet. There is a huge difference between being aware of risks for my kids and getting drunk or useing drugs which is a choice by the way, and leaving my 2 mo old baby in a swing for a puppy to mawl so badly he dies. I am not perfect, however every day we make choices for our kids, this young mother made her choice to put herself first, and to leave that baby alone, to not care at the moment it happened. She made her choice to have the baby, to keep the baby, to try to raise the baby by herself. With that choice, she should have made a better choice before choosing drugs and drinking at 17 yrs old! I am not condeming her, I feel for her, loosing a child is the hardest thing in the world, and one day she may feel the pain of what she did. But she still needed help, as you put it, she was not raised well. So don't you think a program or rehab would have helped her at least a little? No you just think putting her back into the same world she came out of is good enough, after all, she did so well the first time around with her family's help. (Oct 25, 2009 | post #86)

well tickets were in my head for my husband and myself, however the cheapest tickets were $80 and the best are $995! I loved them when I was younger, so I told my husband yes we would go, but now at the cost...I think I would rather have a new pair of shoes...LOL (Oct 24, 2009 | post #98)

Court Case Closed On Mother Of Baby Killed By Puppy
I try to have compassion for everyone, and I understand how a mother of a 2 month old can be over whelming at times. I had my first child at 17, I CHOOSE to raise him, and I have been there for 17 yrs now. I have other children, and when you choose to be a mom you make the choice to keep that child safe, always to do your very best to raise it right and to protect it. This mother choose to have a child at 17, to keep it, and then to neglect it by choice. She will grow up in the next few yrs, and she may come to accountabilty one day all on her own, but until then, she needs help. She needs someone to step in and give her the guidance she never seemed to get at home from her mother. And a program would have done that, she got off to easy and that is not justice for the baby.
