Society often approves it though. All she has to do is talk about how she felt trapped in a mundane existence, and she is lauded as a free spirit who broke free to live her best life.


There's a young Mother with three children
Got a stable income and a faithful husband, too
She's searchin' for her life's meanin'
So she says to her shrink, "I'm leavin' home soon!"
Just decided that she couldn't take it anymore
Didn't look back, she just snuck out the back door-

What is wrong with this picture?
We applaud this behavior
Admire how she breaks away
Oh, it's so clearly cloudy, in the land of the grey

You know, this post annoyed me more than I thought it would. Just for your information, I know you’re a man and don’t really get these things, but a sane mother ain’t never leaving a child behind. If she does, then it’s something going on in her head which ain’t good and proper psychiatric care is the natural next step.

It's not just a song lyric. I personally know some mothers who have done exactly that, for exactly that stated reason.

Believe you me, I wish I was wrong and you were right.

No no no. You hang them on the fence railing, still alive, and let them die over the next few days. Then you leave their corpses there as a warning to the rest.
Think I read about that in Leviticus. Or was that Numbers?

Being selfish is really in style right now, and getting more popular every week it seems.

My own mother had an affair and divorced my father, just because she "wanted to be free."

My daughter is fine, thank you!
I was meaning nightwister's daughter.
You can't leave babies alone by themselves that is criminal.

madeline mccanns parents did that, not just madeleine but her twin siblings while they were wining and dining at a resort and didn't have a nanny or a listening service. 3 year old Madeleine disappeared and to this day nobody knows where she is.
