Usually I don’t come across this many articles on the subject in one day. The simple fact is, women can’t be trusted with their own children. Not unless they are under the authority of a man with an interest in the child living.
Hog-tie mum Rebecca Mae Haliday pregnant again
A FORMER Caboolture woman jailed in 2003 for the sickening “hog-tying” death of her 18-month-old daughter has revealed she is going to be a mother again.
Haliday and her former boyfriend Daniel Ronald Green, now 30, were both jailed for six years for the manslaughter of her youngest child Beanca Newman, who died in 2001 in their caravan home, north of Brisbane.
She also had a son, two-and-a-half, at the time of Beanca’s death.
The pair admitted Beanca was tied up with rolled bedsheets night after night for weeks to teach her “that bedtime was bedtime”.
Haliday, then 20, did not take part in the restraining process but was conjointly charged because she consented to it. She told police that in the final weeks she believed the restraints were strengthened, as Green “hogtied” together Beanca’s separately bound hands and feet.
The toddler eventually died in her sleep from a combination of pneumonia and asphyxia.
Notice that they sidestep the question of who the biological father was, even though it’s obvious it wasn’t the abusive boyfriend; they say that “she” had two children, and that the surviving child is now being raised by his paternal grandmother.
News of Haliday’s pregnancy follows a spate of shocking child neglect cases around the country which have prompted the Federal Government to announce plans for a national strategy to tackle the issue.
A “national strategy”. How about a natural strategy? Like, you know, FATHERS?
New partners often fatal ‘fathers’
FOUR out of eight children whose deaths were reviewed by a special Queensland government committee, died at the hands of their mothers’ new partners….
While all eight who died from assault were killed by relatives, most were slain by their mothers’ new boyfriends….
Domestic violence expert Elspeth McInnes said research showed that father figures – particularly stepfathers or other non-biological figures – posed the biggest threat to children.
Gosh! Imagine that!
“This is why you need a strong community around families noticing when this sort of violence is occurring.”
No, this is why you need fathers, to protect their children from whatever scumbags their mother feels like fucking.
Other child death statistics recently released by the Commission for Children and Young People showed that of the 11 children who died from assault in 2007-08, 10 were killed by a parent or step-parent.
