A four and five year old boy and girl have been killed and a 6mth old has been stabbed and fighting for their life. This happened last night in the UK. Their parents have been arrested for this. How could some one do something like this? Kill a child, especially their own child. I have a 2yr old child and I cant imagine ever even thinking of doing something like this. I know sometimes it can get stressful and hard but killing him would never ever enter my head. Hopefully the baby pulls through it. Fingers crossed.

Wow that is so heart breaking. I can not imagine trying to harm my children. What in the world is the world coming to when parents kill their kids and kids kill their parents? I know things like this have been going on for a long time but it is still heart breaking each time you hear about this happening.

I know it happens too often but it still breaks your heart when you hear of 3 little kids under the age of 5 who could not defend themselves against these two adults who they should have trusted with their lives.

How awful not heard about it will watch the news later, how could anyone do that to a little child, I dont know how anyone can to it to anybody but a little child that cannot defend themselves what an awful world we live in.

HI there Phone Volts! That's really brutal and scary. I hope that the baby will make it and will be normal after. It will be really hard for the baby though, when he became aware of what happened. Having parents like that and losing siblings like that. I cannot imagine the pain that he will carry throughout his life. I know what you mean. I cannot even spank my son. I even feel guilty when I shout at him.

This is so sad, how could any parent do such a vile thing to their own kids. Sure we all get stressed at some time but to kill, no, no,no.I hope that poor little six month old baby makes it. I willpray that it doesn't die. this is just awful.

The parents are the main suspects? That is so freaky! Why would anyone do that? Aren't parents supposed to have that innate emotion to protect their children? And to think that *both* parents were arrested for this - what was that all about? a tag team? Thanks for the comment on my discussion.
