If this is true, the parents should be executed.
Sick..and the perps should be executed. That being said, I'm guessing the article is slanted against foreign adoption because Russia is having a heck of a problem with an aging population.
Pravda? Check out http://www.weeklyworldnews.com/... it is more reliable.
Not did these people kill their own, but indirectly doomed thousands of russian/easter european children to "life" in a system that makes our Child Protective Services look like Disneyworld.
God forgive me, but I hope they rot in Hell.
It seems plausible that the boy's condition and death are due to his cystic fibrosis, which is mentioned as only an afterthought in this article, yet would be very relevant to charges of starvation, as it affects digestion.
Even if some of these horrible incidents are true, the article seems to be written to agitate Russian nationalism against the US as if all future adoptions are to be suspected. It smells of Pravda...
Well then, all they need to do is get the kid's pediatrician to come forward and tell what what they were trying to do to help this poor boy.
Meanwhile, doctors clearly stated that the boy had died an ultimate stage of emaciation.
Ooooh, sorry. That's gonna leave a mark. Only one thing left to say!
As opposed to the thousands of Russian kids dying from starvation in Russia, or from other abuses beyond the perverted imagination of these people.
Sounds like these SOB so-called parents deserve to ride the lightning. Probably quote some pseudoscience pablum / weirdo diet religion to justify their abuse. A$$holes.
A little bit of clarification, although I am no apologist for the Sun, the recent article about this boy's death was written after the coroner decided on the legal cause of death - manslaughter, as opposed to accidental.
"the pious teachers at a Sunday school"?
I can't speak to the truth of this. But we do have friends trying to adopt from Russia. Two American families were FALSELY accused of child abuse before they even left for home with their kids. There seem to be some folks in Russia that don't want Americans adopting their orphans. That's all I know.
My understanding is that rickets is a disease of malnutrition.
As with other things like this, the horrid things is not that these cases don't get covered in the news, but that they happen at all.
Just today there was much exalting that the NYC murder rate is so low. It's down to about 500 murders a year, but that still means that, averaged out, nearly 2 people are murdered every single day in NYC, a city with 3 daily papers. Five now, if you count the 2 free ones. Most of those murders don't make the paper, but the poor victims are still dead.
Attachment disorder run amuck. Lord have mercy.
