I pit the woman who threw her baby off a 4 story parking structure!!

http://newsfeedresearcher.com/data/articles_n35/police-orange-baby.html

The mother had post-partum depression, and the baby had to wear a helmet to fix his twisted neck and flat head. She was unhappy with this, and threw him off the parking structure, AND get this…went in to have her parking validated (read from another source, Huffington Post), then left. There are no words. The baby survived one day, but died today. The pain the baby must have felt. :mad:

Sure, but where’s the challenge in pitting someone like that? Pit someone a little less obviously wrong, and it’s a real challenge!

I’m surprised the baby survived that fall. My daughter had a helmet for the same reasons. Twisted Neck (actually the muscles on one side are shorter then the other (torticollis) and flat head (plagiocephaly). The fact that my daughter had this is what prompted me to tell Bearflag to take his little one into the doctor to get checked out since she had the same symptoms, which obviously turned out to be something totally different.

Killing babies is bad.

I’m glad to see someone is finally taking a stand against this sort of thing. Throwing infants off buildings is wrong and I don’t care who hears me say it.

I don’t know guys, the bastards just whine and drain society’s limited resources. I say kill the fuckers.

However, this scenario was deplorable, what about the poor people on ground level who may have gotten hit, or worse, had baby splattered all over them?

Are bad. I can’t tell you how many killing babies I’ve had to fight off in the last few days. Headshots seem to work, which is good, because of their disproportionately large heads.

You should try throwing them off parking structures.

While of course I don’t know the true details of this event anymore than any of the rest of us do, it seems unlikely that a Mom was just “unhappy” that her child had torticolliis and positional plagiocephaly so killed him. Not impossible mind you, but it seems more likely that she has postpartum psychosis (not postpartum depression).

For those seriously interested, here is an article about postpartum psychosis and infantacide. Seven months out is a bit late for that though. While postpartum mental illnesses are very common (about 15% of women in the first three months have clinically significant mental illness, more often anxiety disorder and OCD than pure depression), postpartum psychosis is very uncommon, more like 1 to 2/1000. Women who have postpartum psychosis are at substantial risk to kill their babies; 4% do. Depressed women often have intrusive thoughts that may include thoughts of harming their babies but they are upset by it (“ego-dystonic”) and do not act; those with psychosis feel taken over and act (“ego-syntonic”) and do not really understand the consequences of their actions. It is sometimes considered a psychotic presentation of bipolar disorder triggered by postpartum hormonal shifts and those with a personal or family history of bipolar disorder are at greater risk. If a new Mom has a both a personal history of bipolar disorder and a family history of postpartum psychosis her risk of postpartum psychosis is 74%. It usually presents by 2 weeks postpartum as opposed to other postpartum mental illnesses (anxiety, OCD, depression …) that are more often around 1 to 2 months postpartum.

Again, I do not know if this woman had postpartum psychosis or not, and if so how she was being treated … or not treated. Perhaps details will come out over the next few days. I do know however that it is easy to miss: a mom with postpartum psychosis may not often volunteer the information that she is hearing voices that tell her to do things or offer up her delusions without prompting.

Uh, I don’t think so: It took the baby mentioned in the OP two days to die.

Maybe she thought she was a Spartan.

Be careful, OP. That’s a controversial position you’re taking…

Look for a taller parking structure.

Down with this sort of thing!

In her defense, that baby was being kind of a dick.

Throwing babies off multi-story car parks. That is wrong on so many different levels.

Joke stolen from Tim Vine. Though he’s a good choice to steal from, because he’s so funny.

Meanwhile, I concur that killing babies is a poor way to behave. I discourage it.

Careful now.

Come back with a Mini or on it?
