I just can't believe this one.

First of all who in their right mind asks a ten year old to baby sit? Second most responsible parents would keep their ten year old's meds out of reach and give it to them at proper time.

Sounds like an adult did this and the child is the patsy.

The ten yo was the kid of the babysitter, not the sitter.

First of all who in their right mind asks a ten year old to baby sit?

From the article: charged with killing an infant entrusted to her mother's care

They didn't, the mom of the 10-year-old was the babysitter. Misleading headline.

Two separate issues here...a 10 year old kid *killing* a child and a 10 year old kid being *charged* with killing a kid.I'll leave the first part alone and,regarding the second part,all I can say is that 10 year olds can't be held legally,or morally,responsible for such acts in the same way,or to the same degree,that an adult can.Assuming this girl did,in fact,do it she should be committed to some facility...a hospital,perhaps....perhaps until she's 18 or even 21.Is the kid a budding psychopath? Maybe,but at this age there's no way to be sure.Might she commit violent or anti social acts as an adult if given the chance? Maybe,but we can't be sure at this stage.
