I WONDER WHICH WAS THE GOOD TWIN AND WHICH WAS THE BAD TWIN...WISH THIS STORY HAD MORE INFORMATION.
Ungrateful Kids - they forgot who gave them birth. They were BOTH old enough to know their frail dying mother was too sick to speak yet alone to feed herself. Those girls don't look like they've been starving. They deserve prison punishment for this cruelty. I hope the image of their mother begging for help haunts them forever.
DIRTBAGS
i went to elementary and middle school with those girls and regret to say they were my friends back then they were always mean and running the streets and ended up having lots of babies, glad to say i stopped my friendship with them years ago. this is disgustusing!
bet no one knows the mother was a drug junky. does that change anyones mind?
WELL THESE GIRLS WERE TOO YOUNG TO BE TAKING CARE OF THEIR MOTHER SO FULL CRULE PUNISHMENT SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN.THEY ALSO HAVE AN OLDER SISTER WHAT ABOUT HER!I BELIEVE THESE GIRLS SHOULD OF ATLEAST ASKED FOR HELP!BUT YES I AGREE THE MOTHER DID USE DRUG WITHIN HER TIME!NO ONE TRULEY KNOWS WHAT HAPPENS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS!SO TRUTHFULLY THESES GIRLS MAY DESERVE ALIL TIME BUT THEN RECIEVE JUSTICE!THEY ARE TWO YOUNG LADIES MOTHERS INFACT SO FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE TO BE JUDGING SHUT UP!THESE GIRLS HAD MAYBE TRIED THERE BEST BUT YOU MAY NEVER KNOW IF THE MOTHER TRULEY DID NOT WANT TOO RECIEVE THE HELP, SO INCLOSING MY STATEMENT THESE TWO YOUNG MOTHERS,DUAGHTERS OF A DRUG ABUSER DESERVE THERE RIGHTS TO BE FREE!!!!
To "Anonymous" from 5/19/09...wow, ever heard of a dictionary? Did you even finish elementary school, because your grammar (rather lack of it), is absolutely appalling. As for these 2 girls, yes nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors, but IF it were my mother...I'd give her the best care possible within my means & IF I could no longer handle the situation, I would ask for help. Makes me wonder what kind of care they give their own children. They'd be better off in jail & those kids would be better off in foster care. That's my opinion & to those who don't like it...well, I really could give a sh*t!
