At least they were born.
I dont know at what point people stopped taking parenting seriously.
Is this kind of thing occurring more often or are we just hearing about it more?

I would say fathers not sticking around to parent their kids is part of the problem.
If a mother will leave her young kids home alone all night I'm guessing that skank doesn't plan anything. lol

No empathy from me on this one.

I just don't assume because the father is not parenting his children that the kids were not once wanted and loved.

I have seen couples start out as good parents then IDK what happens but they just go bad and think parenting is a job they can just quit, blow off. IDK if it is drugs, immaturity, or what.

No empathy from my end either. No excuse, but I hold both parents responsible for their kids wellbeing. At least make an effort.

that's nice of you to think that but the mother i am talking about had an 8 yr old, 7 yr old and 3 yr old by age 25 and is living in a poor neighborhood. Who would want that?
