I heard this on the news today and just jaw on floor. Getting kidnapped would be traumatizing enough as it is, but to then find out it was all fake??? OMG. Great lesson - we'll horrendously lie to you!!!
This is appalling. I am sitting here with my mouth hanging open. That poor child. My DS1 is 5, I can't imagine anyone doing this to him, or saying those awful things to him. That boy will be traumatized for life.
I just can't wrap my head around one, let alone FOUR, grown adults thinking this is okay to do?! Like, WTAF?
THEY TOLD HIM HE WOULD BE SOLD INTO SEXUAL SLAVERY!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK?
Not that ANY of this is o.k., but as I read, with each thing that they did.... jaw opened wider and wider. They took his pants off too! AND THEY THINK THEY DID NOTHING WRONG!!!!!!!!
How can a parent do that to their child?!! He's 6 years old and they're mad because he's FUCKING FRIENDLY?!!! THIS IS NOT HOW YOU FUCKING TEACH A CHILD ABOUT "STRANGER DANGER!!!!!"
That poor child. There's nothing wrong with nice. We need more nice people. Jesus, what they did is fucking disgusting. I can't imagine what other poor parenting decisions they have made. I hate people.
That poor child is never going to be "too nice" to anyone ever again. That poor, terrified baby.
I hope the relatives he's living with now are a lot more...anything. Normal, loving, centered, affectionate...just anything and everything this poor baby will need in his life.
