A 4-year-old boy died Wednesday, days after he was burned while under the care of his mother's boyfriend, Miami Gardens police said.

According to a police report, Khalil Jabali, 23, was watching his girlfriend's three children Sunday while she was at work when the woman's son was burned by hot water that had been boiled in the microwave.

Police said Jabali called his girlfriend to tell her that the boy had wet his bed and was burned by hot water he had left in the bathroom when her younger child started crying.

Explaining that he had boiled water in the microwave so he could wash the boy's wet clothes, Jabali told police he left a bowl of hot water on the bathroom sink while he was in another room checking on the other child. When he returned to the bathroom, Jabali said he found the boy on the floor moaning and his skin peeling off.

The boy's mother left work and, along with Jabali, took her son to Jackson North Medical Center. He was then transferred to the burn unit at Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center.

Police said the boy had burns to 15 percent of his body.

The boy also had other injuries, including bleeding around the brain and the chest cavity and broken ribs, authorities said.

So true.

I'd go a step further.

In a healthy society, the words "mom" and "boyfriend" would never be used together.

“Mothers” have killed their children more than 60 million times since 1973. “Mama’s Boyfrien’” doesn’t even come close.

I concede your point but I think it takes a special kind of animal to look directly into the face and eyes of a child and murder that child. (And no, I am not excusing those who abort their babies.)

It does. People who do that are exceptionally vile. The question at hand, though, was not the vileness of the killer but the amount of killing various categories of killers do. From conception to birth, "mommy" is a greater threat to a child's life than "mommy's boyfriend" is to a child from birth to big enough for effective self defense. Even so, the original point that genetically unrelated boyfriends (and girlfriends) are a serious threat to children, especially in some socioeconomic groups, is valid

......”Collectively, as a nation, we have kicked Him out of everything and virtually spit in His face for all the blessings and protection He has afforded us over the centuries...And what with the dem party recently voting God out, well, He’ll give us what *we* want, a world without Him or His involvement.”......

Amos speaks of this....”Behold! The days are coming,” declares the Lord GOD, “when I will send a famine on the land — not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD. People will stagger from sea to sea and roam from north to east, seeking the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.”

Even in the churches today we find as Isaiah had spoken.....”These people draw near to Me with their mouths and honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. Their worship of Me is but rules taught by men.”

I agree. It is beyond astounding today the number of family members taking each others lives today. From children to adults there is no sense of the sanctity of life rather a self-centeredness that is very destructive in families.
