When there are so many people who would give these abused children a loving home, it annoys me intensly that parents like these are given their children back. If BabyP had been put up for adoption instead of being left with his parents there would have been hundreds of couples desperate to have him.

I have had a maternal instinct by-pass and have never wanted children, but I would love to get my hands on some of these people. It amazes me that there are laws to remove animals from unfit homes, but children are left at home to be murdered.
