Another case was an LEO coleague who had to leave that profession lest he'd lost his mind or ended up behind bars. He told an abuse/molestation case where the perp dad said nonchalantly that that's what daughters are for. Those and other cases haunted me to this day 
Point is, there just many parents here who see children as means to fulfill their wants. These are no stereotype in-breeders mountain people either. They are doctors, principal, minister, judge, etc. I never see people the same way again. |
That is very true to my limited experience as well. When people ask me why I am no longer a police officer....I start to tell them....then just answer: "Hug your kids".

Iraq was never lost and Afghanistan was never quite the easy good war. Those in the media too often pile on and follow the polls rather than offer independent analysis. Campaign rhetoric and politics are one thing - the responsibility of governance is quite another.
