I too witnessed a 2 year old child being held up by one arm by his grandmother and being hit repeatedly with a shoe by his grandfather. When I asked why he was hitting the baby, he said the baby was "malo". Apparently this goes on a lot as that child is always crying! I know who they are, but do not want to say on the message board. I will write you privately Patti, to see if it is the same area of town. When I asked some locals about child safety, they said it was costubre(sp?) (custom). I think it occurs because the child was unwanted and the grandparents take it out on him. A good reason for birth control for the 15 year olds! Please let them know that you are listening. The child cannot protect himself. |
