A mother and grandparents were arrested after a neighbor reported to the police that she saw the boy and that he looked like a human skeleton.  The boy reportedly only weight 25 pounds.

A Florida mother has been accused of beating and branding her children, ages 5 and 7.  Kayla Oxenham was charged with felony child abuse on Tuesday.

I don't think I will ever understand the evil that dwells inside of some people.  Especially, when that evil destroys a small child.  A 5-year old boy was found inside a closet beaten and malnourished and still in a diaper.  He was found by his 16-year old brother who apparently doesn't live in the household.

Alexandria Hill, 2, was placed into foster care after CPS removed her from her parents home for neglectful supervision.  Her father asked for her to be moved to another foster home, after finding bruises, and her bag covered in mold and CPS then moved Alexandria to her last home.  Little did Joshua Hill know that those would be the lasts days she was alive.   Alexandria was taken off life support

It makes me angry when I see a child being disrespectful to an adult, but I would never go and get physical with that kid.  A Dollar General employee felt different.  A DG employee was arrested and charged with two felonies after spanking a child with a belt.

This borders on a thin line when it comes to child abuse.  A father forces his 4-year old to run around in the snow in just his underwear and a pair of shoes.  Apparently, this was done to "toughen him up." Really, a 4-year old practically naked in the snow.  This video is disturbing.
