Mother admonished over road row

19 January, 2009

An Edinburgh mother-of-nine who let her five-year-old daughter play unsupervised on a busy road has been admonished after admitting neglect.

The 31-year-old said the girl went out with her eight-year-old brother in a bid to play with him and his friends.

But after she became detached from the group, two police officers found her playing alone on a busy road last July.

The mother pleaded guilty to a charge of child neglect at Edinburgh Sheriff Court just as her trial was to start.

Now social workers will look into the case after a sheriff admonished the woman, who cannot be named, and referred the matter to the children’s panel.

The 37-year-old father had a not guilty plea to the same charge accepted by the Crown.

The court heard how two constables who had been out on routine patrol had found the girl playing alone on a road in the Saughton Mains area of Edinburgh in the early evening.

Following investigations they arrived at the girl’s nearby home and questioned the parents.

Representing the woman, solicitor Steven Donald said: “The girl has a brother who is eight and some boys came to the door to ask if he could go out to play.

“The little girl went with them but they did not want to play with her and she was left behind.”

Sheriff Kenneth Maciver said he was sympathetic to the pressures of a large family but insisted the woman had to take better care of her children.

He said: “I can understand how this can happen but it is a young age for your daughter to be out alone on a rat-run that is heavily used by traffic.”

The child was unharmed during the incident.

This article does not mention where this woman’s other seven children were (I cannot imagine being 31 years old with 9 children total; she must not believe in using birth control in any shape or form.) It doesn’t sound like the 31 year old mother keeps an eye on her kids at all if the girl was playing in the middle of the road, and not a cul de sac, either. The authorities should have released the mother’s name anyways, along with the father’s name. In addition to the names mentioned, the woman also being permanently sterilized so she can’t be breeding more stupidity than necessary. It’s time these breeders be held up as an example to the rest of human society. They are not being parents by a long shot and the only thing they are proving to the world is that their private parts work (here, nobody cares about that.) As the saying goes, “Give it a rest.” The double entendre aside, this couple deserves to have the state take all of their kids away from them and stuck in foster homes, until they can be placed in proper homes with real parents and not breeders.
