Two cases with similarities caught my eye.

First one is super funny to me, because the parents abandoned the 7 yr boy to scare him in a forest and now the boy is completely missing. I know poor kid's life is at stake, but if he got eaten by bears or wolves, it would even be funnier! Serves as a good lesson for future parents not to do this as punishment! And I hope the bill for the search party is sent to their doorsteps.
I remember when I was young, when my parents throw me out of the house and lock the gates on me, or my teachers throw me out of the classroom. I would disappear too. I'd just walk out and away which sets the adults on a panic and then they will follow you and yell at you to come back.
It's like, okay, I'm gonna take a walk!
I think it's the dumbest punishment. Considering I got bang down by a car when I was 8. Let a kid wander, things happen.
And then this one.

A beautiful majestic gorilla has to die thanks to a mom not holding the hands of her 4 yr old and keeping him close to her! Seriously, poor gorilla. Unnecessary death! Dude was happily in his little hareem with 2 females, and like free food all day. It's suppose to be safe and he got shot!
Good Lord. Couldn't help but comment on this.
If you really believe this way, you need psychiatric help. This is sociopathic. Deep black hole for a soul.
In regards to the first story. Suggesting it would be funny that a child be eaten by wild animals and suffer and pay from the stupidity of those parents is sickening. That would be a case of cruel and unusual punishment. Parents knowing leaving their child terrorized in a dangerous area even for a minute is criminal. They purposely did it. A 7 year old is developed mentally enough to have fear and understand abandonment. That poor child. What sane parent would knowingly do that? No wonder there are so many sociopaths in the world.
Second story. Who visits the zoo? Families with young children, mostly. 4 year olds have not developed mentally enough to know fear. It only takes looking away for two seconds and an accident can happen. Specially for a very curious agile kid. The fact is there should be in no way an entry for a child to get to an animal like that. I remember taking my kids to the zoo thinking, wow these barriers are not enough, and not high enough. I could have got in if I wanted but I am an adult and know what will happen. A child they don't know, all they know is " I want to pet the monkey"
People want to change the parents for an accident? Unlike the first story they didn't throw their child to the wolves. The responsibility lays with the zoo, who show these dangerous animals and are responsible for making sure these kind of things don't happen. If a child can get in, a 17 year old gorilla could probably get out if he wanted.
I wonder how long you would laugh if you had slipped into the enclosure and we all watched him drag you all over. We decided to save the gorilla and not you? Because you should have been more responsible.
I feel bad for the gorilla too. Human error although unintentional killed him. The first responsibility was the zoo.
People are nuts, truly insane. And karma is a bitch.
Bravo!!!!!
