The worst parents in the world.
From KYMA Arizona:
Four Phoenix boys are behind bars. They are young, only between 9 and 14 years old, but allegedly committed a heinous crime. Police say the four boys raped an 8-year-old girl last week.
The boys allegedly lured the girl into an empty storage shed July 16th, offering her gum. There they restrained the young girl and sexually assaulted her.
In a devastating twist, the girl’s parents disowned her. Police say the parents blamed her for the attack and said she brought shame to the family.
The girl is in custody of Child Protective Services.
Being a parent of two children, the thought of this action by 9 - 14 year olds sickens me, but what makes it worse is the callous attitude of these parents. This child has just gone through a horrifying ordeal and their response is, what, TO DISOWN HER?
As much as the kids should be rehabilitated so they never commit this kind of crime again, I would personally like to see some measure of authority beat the living shit out of these parents. Now, I’m aware of certain idiotic cultural issues that certain groups have regarding shame on a family. I don’t really have any sympathy for these cultural issues. Pakistan men sometimes kill their wives for leaving their house on their own and “shaming” a family in doing so. This has less to do with culture than it has to do with dramatically insecure and immature people who have no idea how to face complex problems.
What this girl needs is parents who can comfort her. What she gets instead are two pieces of shit that, in the long run, she’s probably better off without. Here’s hoping she finds a good foster home with people who actually care about her well being over their own petty self-image.
Fuck these two parents. I hope they rot in hell.
