Seven texas children abandoned in a Nigerian orphanage

Seven Texas children were discovered abandoned in a Nigerian orphanage. They were ravaged by disease and malnutrition and brought back to the state.

The children ranged in age for 8 to 16 aparently their mother left them there when she went to Nigeria to visit a friend of her fiance.

If in fact she is guilty I don;t think the laws are strong enough to deal with her, they should bring back tougher punishment-boiling in oil perhaps.

Sorry Ester,
I had a few small letter where it should have been caps. Here is the correct link.

This makes me think of the missing children thread that is running here somewhere, I'll link it up...

Makes me wonder how many other "American" children are all around the world... missing that is...

Here's the link from CNN

I personally am disgusted with how inconsiderate this world is becoming. How dare a person adopt a "child or children" and then neglect them by leaving them in a foreign country. I really am starting to believe we actually live in "Hell". Why adopt children if you are not going to cherish every moment you have with them especially after knowing all they have probably gone through in Foster Homes or just by knowing their biological parents have given them up. I personally think this women and her Fiance should be prosecuted under "Human Law" this means they should be placed somewhere where they should have to live in the same manner they had left these children to live in.

Im disgusted......

I think there are people in this world who think of children as possesions, like a car or house would be. When they find out how much work is involved in the actual raising of the children, they change thier petty little minds, and since they can't give them back, they search for other ways to get rid of them.
