Horrible Mothers

Horrible mothers are appearing more and more in our society. Recently very disturbing stories of what these mothers do to their children have been appearing n the media. As I was watching CNN and Nancy Grace, about two days ago, they were discussing a very alarming story about a five year old girl who goes by the name Shaniya Davis. Shaniya was found dead in North Carolina due to the decisions of her mother. Her mother begged her father to allow Shaniya to live with her mom. The mother then sold Shaniya to other men for sex. This story disturbed me and my family, and I’m sure many others, so much that I had to make blog discussing bad mothers particularly this one. How could a mother, of all people, sell her own daughter for sex at such a young age? How horrible and heartless of a mother would you have to be to bear a child for nine months only to sell her for child prostitution? I never thought I would ever hear of a mother doing this, but it did. Sadly, this is not the only story of a mother mistreating their child, but it is the most disturbing case. Many stories are out there of mothers abandoning their children at early ages, as early as pre-birth abortion. A case like Shaniya’s has not occurred, and the worst is that it was planned. I think a mother is the most important person to someone, as mine is to me, and I believe a mother should be in their child’s life as that’s all they have in the world. I am glad I have a loving mother and we have such a great bond, I don’t know what I would do without her. Mothers need to be in their children’s life and I don’t understand why they wouldn’t want to be, do you?
