We should all be activists for this cause. This, Milton, should be our highest priority--the protection and well-being of our children. Thank you. Congratulations! Anaya

Congratulations! I couldn't agree with you more! The suffering of the innocent, especially babies, animals, and children is despicable! Excellent job in bringing it to light through poetry! Much love...Meghan

The fires of hell await those who abuse innocent children and babies. We had a couple of cases recently where the children were horrifically abused and died, and it was the parents who were the abusers. Tom

It's hard to believe that some parents can treat their children so cruelly. It literally makes me sick!
