Police probe death of boy whose parents are in Iraq
Source: Chicago Tribune
Calumet City Police are investigating the death of a 4-year-old boy who was found unresponsive in his bed by a man taking care of him while his parents are serving in Iraq, authorities said.
It should be illegal to take BOTH parents from kids and send them BOTH halfway around the world into combat. It shouldn't matter if they are divorced or not.
for everyone found there must be several more that haven't surfaced yet. What horrible suffering. A 23 year old male babysitter just couldn't be equipped for the mental stress of caring for young kids, who are not his own. So many of our local tragedies are a young male boyfriend left to care for a small child. What's is so terrible is that kids can survive bad beatings over and over and NOT die. Why do they have to be dead or broken before someone steps in. God Damn!
