Four-year-old passes away after being forced to drink whisky
It is heartbreaking to think how awful this must have been for the little girl...
We all know that parenting can be difficult, but in some cases, people aren't worthy of being parents.
This is one such case, in our opinion.
We understand that it can be mentally and physically draining to raise a child, but if you are not mentally stable, then best you reach out for help instead of taking out your mental instability on an innocent child...
A grandmother in Louisiana, USA, forced her four-year-old grandchild to drink a bottle of whisky. And that too, in the presence of the child's mother...
"According to WAFB citing an arrest warrant, both women were upset at the child because she may have drunk out of the bottle that was sitting on the counter. The warrant alleges that's when the grandmother told the toddler to drink the rest of the bottle while on her knees in a hallway." (Business Insider)
It is believed that the child died of acute alcohol poisoning.
We are no experts on the matter, but that old school, orthodox way of thinking and punishing children is long gone. It doesn't teach children anything, it damages them and results in adults with mental health issues.
