I don't even know what to say. I am so angry for that mom. What the fuck are people thinking? What if there wasn't a camera in that laundry mat? How often would she do stupid shit like that to this other woman's child? What a skank.

I feel awful for that kid and his parents, what a scary situation or that kid to be in.
I always wonder though why one of the first things people do in situations like this is go on national television. I don't see how that makes the situation better in any way at all for this child.
I commented in a thread on one of our local news station's Facebook pages yesterday where over 95% of the people sounding off wanted the "dad" put in jail for child abuse.
This happened in Camden, which means it was close enough for it to appear on my local new this morning. Even the mother said that there was nothing criminal and she doesn't think criminal charges are warranted. That doesn't mean she isn't going to sue for something, she just acknowledges that they weren't trying to hurt the kid.

Well, as long as they weren't *trying* to terrify or drown her child...
