Son, this is gonna hurt you alot more than it's going to hurt me.

He's defective, get your money back.

The state is going to be taking care of him in a few years anyway, what's a couple of extra years.

We could just extend the limits of abortion about 12 years.

The kid sounds muslim.

Confabulat: We could just extend the limits of abortion about 12 years.

All Pete wants for Chrimmus is a Repeat!

This was greenied about a week, ago, but eh, it's an interesting story.

My take: Reactive attachment disorder = permanently damaged. He's too old to be fixed. People who put him up for adoption engaged in fraud and are weasels.

leaving a note "sorry you have to die"

On the positive side, he was considerate enough to leave a note.

St_Francis_P: leaving a note "sorry you have to die"

On the positive side, he was considerate enough to leave a note.

and he obviously felt bad about what he had to do.

Sounds like the movie The Orphan.

What she said.

I'm a little foggy today, but wasn't it Oklahoma that had the 'drop your unwanted kids off here' program?


/drop the little farker off

Yea, I'm ashamed it took me so long into the movie to figure out the twist at the end. But I like the movie the Bad Seed better. Sure it's an old black and white film but it's really good. The scene where the girl burns the guy up is really evil.

The book scared the crap out of me when I read it when I was young. I didn't know about the movie until years later (it was a Broadway show before that.)

Book also had a better ending--the wife tried to kill herself and daughter. The wife died, the daughter lived. At the end of the book, the husband is telling the daughter how much he adores her, and how happy he is that she's alive. Mom, of course, was evil, because she tried to kill her own daughter.

To this day, when I see evil little sh*ts, I think, "the bad seed."

there is a documentary running on msnbc right now where the parents let the state take the child. harsh perhaps but taking the kid back into the home doesn't sound to safe for the adoptive parents.

i know a couple that planned to adopt a problem kid but, like this kid, he just had too many problems. they opted out of the adoption.

and yeah the state will low ball the problems.

I was channel surfing a while back, and they had one of those two-way interviews, where the anchor sits in the middle between two sides.

Anyway, one person was a woman from a parent's rights organization or something, the other was Director of Health and Human Services of Oklahoma - a guy who should know EVERYTHING about this case, since it's his decision that was in dispute.

So.... when it comes time for the director to talk, he goes on about how these people get assistance and so forth, but then admits he knows NOTHING about this particular situation. WTF? The kid tried to KILL his adoptive parents, and he knows nothing about it? Did it even occur to him, before going on national TV, to I dunno, maybe REVIEW THE FACTS? Of course, he should have done this before deciding the parents needed to keep their potential killer, too.

Call it that; the kids'll think it's cute.

The original headline was terrific. Put it back please
