    His father is remorseful? For what.......getting arrested? He beat the boy for two months. May God have mercy on him and may the jury not.

    How can people like this be allowed to live? I believe in "An eye for an eye" and the boys other side of the family should have their turn with him.

    That's what "prison justice" is all about.

    This guy will be a human pin cushion in the "Big House".

    I can only imagine the terror that poor boy must have been enduring at the hands of someone he likely looked to as his protector.

    Seven years old.

    He should have been playing in the park, watching clouds, going for ice cream, watching Saturday cartoons, riding his bike, not being terrorized, battered and getting his head smashed in.

    Animals treat their young better.

    Some days make me wonder why God doesn't just hit "reset".

    OMG! What a tragic story for this little boy!!

    Why the heck did the father petition for summer custody of him if all he wanted to do is abuse him. He deserve everything the law dishes out to him (and more)....and, hopefully, will get his just rewards here on earth and after he dies.

    This just sickens and angers me!!!
     
    Baack Thanks this.

    Because God gives us free will. That means the father had the free choice to do right as a loving father or to sin and do evil. He chose the sin. I truly believe that with each blow that man gave, God's heart was wounded. He never promised we wouldn't have sorrow or pain but He promised He'd never leave us. I believe He was with that child and that the child is with Him now.

    I know it doesn't change the horror nor the pain that boy went through but I do believe it's why we're God's children and not His slaves.
