That Really Yanks My Chain

Last night on the news I see this picture of a girl come on screen.  She has just been arrested.  She has bags under her eyes that are darkened, she looks drunk/stoned.  What was she arrested for you might ask?  Going out drinking all day and leaving her 9 month old twins home alone.  Aka...child neglect two counts cause their twin babies.  So, the kids are with their grandma and the chick will appear in court, she will probably do herself a little jail time but, then if she jumps through a couple hoops she will get another shot at being a "mom". 
  This REALLY pisses me off.  It is mothers like this that should be locked up forever and take out their womanhood so they can't have anymore kids.  I have multiple friends that are unable to have children that would make wonderful parents.  A classmate that because of a battle with childhood cancer, can not have kids.   I hear him amd his wife are working at their foster parenting license.  Good! They are great people.  It would be hard to do though because in situations like this idiot mother, you could just get attached to these babies and BOOM they could be gone again. 
  A couple other friends looked into full adoption.  Their credit and every aspect of their lives gets examined.  Is that really worth it?  They even ask for bank statements!  I'm pretty sure no one asked for my credit score or account balances when I got pregnant.  Now I realize we want the best for these children but, money doesn't buy love.  A thorough background check seems to be more important to me.  I guess the point I'm getting at is that, maybe after these mothers screw up that badly, with children that young, we have to think how much joy those kids still could bring some people in this world.  Yes, they went to their Grandma in this case which is wonderful, keep children in their families when possible.  Yet, if not possible, let them get placed with a family that can wrap their arms around them and help them forget about their dead beat mother that abandoned them.
