I don't get gob smacked by much but how odd is this.
A mother from Birmingham has been given a suspended jail sentence. She was found guilty of 6 counts of 'Wilful Abandonment'
Why?
She has 6 children starting from 3 years old to 14 and told the teenage son she was 'Going to the supermarket' She actually went to Australia 'To be with her boyfriend, for 6 weeks'!!!!!!!!!
The poor lad rang his grandparents and they alerted the police.
I appreciate jailing her would probably have no sensible impact and their is a family to consider but hells bells I can't help but think she didn't show much consideration to her family.
I apologise if at a later date more is known and compassion should be shown but at this stage I really am thinking what on earth was she thinking.
Shall we reboot our cartoons thread again? 😁
