Dude, where was your brain (irresponsible parenthood)

TLK · Jun 23rd, 2009, 03:16 PM

1. A young woman who was standing aside with her father watching the protests was shot by...

2. Few years ago, a father in Lahore, while visiting the zoo with his family, climbed the outer fence with his toddler son and took his son closer to the Bear cage. Bear brought his hand out and slapped the kid to death.

Case in point is, as sad as these incidents are, I think that fathers should be punished. I mean yes, the terrorist killed the Iranian girl, but that was not a circus dude, what were you doing out there with your innocent daughter at that time.

That boils my blood when I see the idiot parents (often brainless fathers) risking (and sometimes loosing) the life of their kids in the name of thrill seeking.

In the first case I would say that Since Mosawi told his supporters to be peaceful during that rally , that is what the father was counting on protesters being peaceful and Iranian government not doing anything against peaceful demonstrators.

In the second case, yes, this guy was an idiot but his son paid with his life for the idiocy of his father .

Sometimes its just unfortunate, we cannot fully blame them, no one does it with intension.

Just 2 days ago, a father in Belgium forgat his baby in the car in a parking lot and went to work, in the evening the mom went to the car to get something out and saw that her child was dead. The baby died of heat.

^ um ..ok ..why did I read that?

No one does stupidities with intentions Sadia, but the one who does is still the one who is responsible.

TLK if you are taking about Nada the 27 years old Iranian girl then I believe she and her teacher were among the protestors and she died for her cause.

nikki u are soo right.

I agree that there is a certain amount of carelessness involved, though in the end we like to get sabr by thinking it was kismat and all....like I saw a 6-7 year old hit by a truck in gujranwala cantt on his way back from school. They were all-kids group coming back from school, not accompanied by a 'single' adult. Maybe they thought cantts are safe or maybe they were too busy!... in any case an innocent life was lost.

Because it happens a lot as we think!

Sometimes ppl forget their kids while shopping, stress factor plays a great role.

I went and googled the story of that belgium 6 month old baby. It was actually his mom, she brought other 2 elder kids to school and had to hurry to the laundary to her work and forgat to bring the youngest to the next nursery, she was in lots of stress coz of work and kids.

Do you know in Pak, there have been a lot of cases where kids died coz they fell into open gutters in streets and they drowned. In some cases the parents only found out about their kid when the body surfaced after few days (Astaghfirullah).

The gutters are never cleaned by the municipality ppl in the whole year, forget about monthly or quaterly cleaning. Mostly these gutters are open and without proper covering/lids. They are enough deep to take in a 2-3yrs old kid very easily. Thats too horrible and sad on the part of Govt ofcourse but the ppl living in those streets should be considerate about it too. After all its dangerous for them and their kids, 100% their loss. Govt cant bring their kid back if God forbid something such happens.

In pakistan its like Apni Madad Aap and tawakal on Allah. You cannot expect anything from Govt.
