Awful - I heard it this morning. So saddening & tragic.

You are correct and I am sorry you had to experience the stupid first hand.

a lot of so-called adults think it is ever so clever and funny to abuse children. my ex’s cousin once did a ‘magic’ trick in which he ended up with some money I had given my daughter. he stuffed it in his pocket and the family laughed. my daughter didn’t (she cried when he wouldn’t give her her money back), and neither did I.

I was pilloried by the family, and he wasn’t allowed in my house again....but the kid got her money back.

btw all progressive democrats

Just out. It was the daughter of a South Bend police officer:

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (WNDU, AP) - A South Bend police officer's 1-year-old daughter died after falling 11 stories from a cruise ship docked in Puerto Rico.

Police said Monday that the toddler's grandfather told officers he lost his grip while holding her outside a window on the Freedom of the Seas. He was identified as Salvatorre Anello.

The incident occurred Sunday afternoon at the Panamerican dock in the capital of San Juan.

I’ve never understood the “humor” people find in deliberately causing a child distress. I’m not talking about telling a child “no” about something knowing that they’ll be upset to be thwarted; I’m talking about doing things to make yourself and other people laugh. I think it’s cruel and mean-spirited, damaging to the children, and unfortunately in some cases dangerous.

I’ll bet the grandfather is a democrat...

Was he doing his Michael Jackson impression?

If I am looking at the correct You Tube Page for him, it doesn't appear he is.

I’m with you and I consider it emotional abuse. Making someone, anyone cry then saying “awww you just can’t take a joke” is definitely abuse.

Do we believe God will forgive him?

And I’m guessing booze/drugs is involved.

Update: Video shows Grandfather new the window was open.
