The Baby P story is as horrific as they come. The broken back is just awful. I remember hearing that they thought that injury likely came about by being brought down on an adult's knee.

How sick do you have to be to even contemplate shit like that, let alone carry it out?

or "The Outrage Thread".

With regards to Baby P - Some people just shouldn't be allowed to have children in the first place if they're incapable of bringing them up. Many moons ago I was in a band and the Hammond player went as far as saying if you wanted kids you should have to apply for a licence and then be assessed on your suitability to have kids. Once you had passed the requisite requirements, you could crack on. Hey presto, no jakey kids, no more mini crime waves, and no more Baby P situations.

Don't know if I'd subscribe to this - wee bit Big Brother and obviously for that reason it would never happen. Anyone else agree with this or something along these lines?

And I know it was wrong of me to laugh - but the dog story was funny as.

Don't get me started on today's parents...

Would be fathers should have to sit an aptitude test before being allowed to use their cock. If you fail it three times, you get your nuts chopped off just in case.

(Would be mothers, similar test - 3 strikes and it gets sewn up)

It's getting that way.

This will clearly never happen, but fuck me it would get rid of so many problems... (I'm sure it would conjure a complete new set of problems of its own though)

Yup, social work departments would see their caseloads halved.

That's not really a problem given the hours social workers I know work (in excess of 60 hour weeks on fairly regular occasion).
