So if you've been too busy today to check out the news then you probably don't know that they think they have found the body of little Caylee Anthony! Yep...that's right, they think they have found her. According to what I saw tonight on Nancy Grace, a worker found a garbage bag on the side of the road about a 1/2 mile from the Anthony home and when he opened it a small child-size skull fell out. They are still doing DNA tests to confirm that it is or isn't little Caylee.This absolutely makes me S I C K !!! I cannot and will not EVER understand hurting or killing your own child. And for what? Just so you could party more?! C'mon! I've been following this story since the beginning and at first thought, 'well...maybe someone did take her. Maybe she is telling the truth and this is like some weird movie that has too many twists and turns.' But after seeing many news stories and reading numerous articles I stopped believing everything that spewed from this mother's (and I say "mother" loosely) mouth. She has told lie after lie and I find it despicable. I've been hoping in the back of my mind for some time now that they would find her alive and that maybe, just maybe, she sold her or gave her up for a weird private out of the county adoption or something. I didn't want to think of her as 100% dead, lying in a ditch somewhere. But if this is Caylee then I hope her family can somehow find comfort in the fact that she is not being abused somewhere by some unknown person(s). She is in a better place and is receiving her angel wings. I really hope they fry that "mother"! (Sorry, I know that's harsh but she killed her baby!) What do you think about this case?
Tonight I took the kids to Wal-Mart to get some more art supplies to make the infamous gumball machine (that I will post this weekend) and I heard a little girl screaming. Not anything abnormal seeing as how children constantly throw fits in stores when they don't get what they want; mine have done it hundreds of times. But when I walked down the isle that had the Christmas bags I saw her and the things the mother was saying to her not only shocked me but also shocked my kids! So as I entered the isle I smiled at the mother as to say, "Been there done that." And then I smiled at the screaming little girl.
Mother: (On her cell phone with someone) "Don't ever have kids!"
Child: SCREAMING and crying.
Mother: "You know all those gifts under the tree? You're not getting one of them!"
(Yeah, that's a great way to get her to stop screaming!)
Child: SCREAMING and crying still!
Mother: "Yeah, you better move! Don't come near me or I'll kill you!"
Child: Still screaming but now harder!
Can you imagine?! What kind of mother says something like that to their kid? Not only that but in front of people in a store. AND in front of other small children! My kids were SHOCKED! I just wanted so badly to go over and give that little girl a huge hug! I wanted to scoop her up into my arms and tell her that it would be ok. Of course all that AFTER I called CPS on the beyotch! As we walked through the rest of the store I could still hear her screaming and could still hear the mother saying bad, mean things to her.
Ok now I know that kids can get you to loose your temper and it's embarrassing when they do it in a store; believe me I know. BUT what in the world would make her think that saying these things to her child would make her stop? When my kids do that I either tell them to stop or they will be going to their room when we get home or calmly ask them what the problem is and try to negotiate a deal to make things better.
Example:
Child: "I want that toy!"
Parent: "No, you can't have that toy. You're not being very nice right now."
Child: Screaming and crying
Parent: "Listen, if you stop crying right now then maybe if you're good next time we come to the store you can get something."
Usually, and I say usually, the screaming and/or crying stops. And if it doesn't then that's when I pack them up and we leave. But never, NEVER, under ANY circumstances would I EVER tell my kid that if they didn't shut up and/or stay away from me that I would "kill" them!!! E V E R !!! I honestly didn't know what to do. I didn't want to overstep my bounds but I also felt incredibly guilty that I didn't say anything. What would you have done?

This story just breaks my heart- how can one do this to a child- i am getting the goosebumps just thinking about it. what confuses me is the grandmother who changed her views. and did the mother really think that supposedly conducting her own search for a month was okay? my heart aches for that beautful little girl.
about the woman inthe store- i would have walked on by her and said ' wow thats some great parenting skills- what a nice thing to say to your child."(saraastically) so the mother would feel guilt and realize what she just said.
Ive seen a mother slap her daughter who was between 2-3 yrs old inthe corner of one of the aisles at safeway-as if to hide from allthe shoppers all becasue she wanted a box of fruit snacks and the mom said no- i couldnt believe she would strike a toddler over that- at that age, toddlers dont really know better- in thsi case the mother didnt know any better.
Ugh. I *KNEW* Caylee's mom was lying from day 1. I did not believe a word that came out of that girl's mouth. I mean, who doesn't tell their family for a MONTH that their child is missing?? And I dont' understand how her parents can just stand behind her. I mean, I know you're supposed to love and support your children, but if they kill their CHILD are you just supposed to stand there and say "I support my daughter"? The whole thing makes me SO sad. I heard the news story and I just wanted to pick up my daughter and hug her....
