1) "Most women of this ilk are employed as CNAs, LPNs, or RNs."

2) "No most CNA's, LPN's and RN's are dedicated & do an often thankless job."

Statement 2 does nothing to refute statement 1. Logically, I am not sure what that is called... sort of like begging the question, but different. Like, if I were to say "most balls are round" and you reply, "no, most footballs are oblong".

Well actually most mothers caring for an adult child with CP and/or quadriplegia would not be working because as caregiver it is a full time job in itself. But whatever.

Hey, you can’t fault her entirely. She did leave him some leaves and a blanket to keep him warm. /sarc

This is sick.

Did not go to the link, but I saw video last night of the police spokesman who is quoted in the excerpt. He said that there were relatives who would have been happy to take care of the disabled man.

Or, at a minimum, sentence her to be tied up in the cold, wet woods and leave her there for good with a copy of "Mommy Dearest" next to her on a pile of soggy leaves.

Don't forget the soggy blanket. She needs to not stay warm somehow!

The nerve of having a Bible with him. Assuming she put it with him, and he didn’t carry it himself.

Someone who just drop-kicks him to the curb when he’s inconvenient. How Christian or Jewish is that?

If Philly has had weather as we have here near Baltimore, which I believe they do, this week was HORRIBLE for rain. Well, we got lucky that it wasn’t worse, but it threatened every day from Tuesday all the way through Friday.

That poor guy probably got soaked, alright.

"Was there a SSI check involved designated for his care perhaps?"

I'd bet there was. And that is probably the reason she would not give custody to her aunts,

She’s probably done this multiple times before but this time she got caught.

Singing and dancing and being a sports star are lots of fun - dealing with the nitty-gritty of the real grown-up world, not so much......
