im dedicating this thread to you katie
you could never speak to defend yourself.
those of us who can comuincate take it for granted.
those of us who have parents that love us take it for granted.
we all take our lives for granted.
iv seen your pictures and looking at your sweet smile melts my heart.
i even feel guilty i wasnt there to take you away from that monster they called your mother.
somtimes i think about what iv gone thru and im thankful for every breath i take.
since you could never talk to share your story,im sharing it for you.

who did this woman think she was?
to take someones life just because they were diffrent?
because she was a "burden"??!
pepole like karen mccarron are a burden to this world.
why should we keep feeding them and giving them shelter?

That was absolutely sick. I have no other words for it, but sadly it still happens.

good article,where did all this happen

The mother was sentenced to 36 years so she didn't get a light sentence. So not all parents get off easily or get light sentences when they kill their disabled kids.

Because we are better (more ethical) than them.

I can understand the wish to make them pay for their crime, or to simply dispose of people that are a danger to society. But if we did that, we would make the same horrible decision they did (albeit for different and probably better reasons). We have to be better people than murderers in order to set a standard by which we can judge them.

wow, just wow. Someone should have called Child Protective Services on that woman long before that happened...

this happens too much. its the result of autism speak's pr no doubt. brainwashing parents against autistic kids.

What a miserable shame.

Of course, once upon a not-so-long-ago time I looked at my Aspie self and saw a person that needed to die, looked at my probably Aspie son and saw a little monstrosity with no future but rejection and misery.

Because that's what I was told.

We are beautiful. We deserve to spin around in the sunshine and screech and laugh like loons.

Katie should be there too.

What a sad society.

What a miserable shame.

I would have taken that precious child for myself had I been there.


Instead of people like Karen McCarron (an "upstanding citizen, a doctor"), they get called to investigate people like me... just because I'm bipolar.

Amen. A-fucking-men.

Not all, but the record is not impressive.



Because that is the ethically correct thing to do. I do not want to live in a civilization that simply slaughters or starves its outcasts and criminals.

Best comment in this thread. Hating on this women won't bring that child back. Something could have actually been done.

The question now is, how can we stop tragedies like this from occurring again? There's got to be something that can be done... what drove her to such extreme lengths? Is there some way of catching people who are in denial about their inability to cope before they crack?

If it would in any way prevent stuff like this from occurring, I'd condone the establishment of anonymous drop-off centers for parents who feel the need to abandon their children, even though I fear it would merely result in an increase in the number of children who are abandoned.

There has to be something which would put this to an end...

She got 36 years, big deal. If Katie had been NT her mom mighta gotten life, or death, depending on what state the crime was committed in. But then, Casey Anthony got off better than Karen, so maybe it's not totally judged on the child's "disability".
