Should you be able to shove a gun in your kids

And regarding the punk father that put a gun in his son's mouth - WTF?!! People should have to pass an IQ test, and parenting test, before they're allowed to have children.

I agree with you 100% - just look at all the hoops people have to jump through to prove that they are "worthy" for adoption, but there are no tests or requirements for some of these assholes to have children.

Sickest thing I ever saw... my parents were foster parents when I was a kid - we had new children living in our house almost every week. Sometimes they stay a little longer than others and you get attached. One little girl's parents both lost custody several times because it had been proven they were molesting/beating the little girl - but the state kept giving her back to them. The last time we saw her she cried, kicked and held on to the door jam when the social worker took her from our home back to her parents... I'll never forget that look on her face, I was 8 years old - she was about 5... we learned months later that they had finally killed her... the parents were in and out of jail and got their other children returned to them almost right away.

People like this - and this father who stuck a gun in his son's mouth - just make me sick.
