...AS PUNISHMENT FOR WETTING HIS BED.  I mean, really?  Seriously?  I can see not letting him drink water like, an hour before bed to see if that's the problem, but FIVE F*****G DAYS?!  And making him stand in a room with no air conditioning by the window in the sun...WHEN IT'S 100 DEGREES OUTSIDE?  People.  Are.  Sick.  They need to be charged with murder.

:eek: That.....is insane.

Sometimes I think people should have to take a parenting test before being allowed to breed.

I completely agree.  Things like this just shouldn't happen, and some people just shouldn't breed to begin with.

Can we allow the death penalty for people like this?  Please.  If you are a person that can torture your own child to death, you are not going to contribute to the good of society.

I agree entirely.  People like this shouldn't be allowed to live.  In cases like this, I'm all for "eye for an eye", but then again, I'm one to hold grudges...

Definitely and the judge should max out their sentence when they are convicted.

The should not only be convicted of murder, but of torture...I sincerely wish the death penalty on these people.  I'm thoroughly disgusted.  I'm ashamed to share the same species with these people.

No it would be the end  of  children  dieing  needlessly at the hands  of  screwed up parents! Who in their  bloody right mind  does that to a  child? Who cares if he wet the  bed, you  change the  sheets, wash the  peed on ones and  oh here's a  thought  take the  child to a Dr. to see if there is a medical  reason  they are still  wetting the bed at the age of  10! Sometimes kids  just  wet the bed  beyond  potty training  for various reasons either  medical  or  physiological denying a child   a basic necessity  of  life, especially during  100 degree  weather is NOT  acceptable at  all.  Never  mind the death penalty, toss them  in general population with  a stick note attached to  their fore heads  detailing  what they  do to a defenseless child.:ninja:

Kid was probably wetting the bed at age 10 because his parents were horrors to live with..  

I like the idea of sending them to prison with a note stapled to them saying what they did.

I like that, too.  They're the kind of people that are eventually beaten to death by other inmates.

No kidding.  It may sound kinda dark approving of that outcome, but no way in hell was that probably the first beating that child took..

Not to mention the other two boys there!  I can't imagine how much trauma they're going through right now, especially his twin!  The poor thing wanted to help, but knew he'd be punished too if he was caught.  It's awful that things like this happen in the world...
