Good morning! Another bad day, I guess. Starting right off with an article in the LA Times about Anthony Avalos, poor little soul.
Has this been posted? LAT won't let me read.
The horrific death of Anthony Avalos and the many missed chances to save him
I cannot understand how people can sexually abuse a child, or want to, or even think about it. The enormous meanness of soul of these people who abused and killed Anthony is overwhelming.
This is one of the days that I'm sorry I ever laid sight on this wonderful site. It's hard to know about, harder to forget, impossible, really. And I can't stay away.
PS this is about Anthony, not me, yes, I know, it was also hard for him to be abused and to die. What can be done to make parents FEAR the results of their actions enough to STOP? And to get help for the child if not themselves?
Do child abusers change after a go-round with the CFS? Any of them? Does that really help, or should parents' rights be terminated before death occurs? So many people say they would have taken a child rather than let them be killed by parents, would they actually step up? Give these children a fresh start and a chance for life?
There was no help for Anthony Avalos, poor little guy.

@teedie2, glad you're with us on this sad, sad thread.
Our sweet Anthony, with his positive attitude and eagerness to please -- at least that's the way it seemed with his favorite teacher -- probably would have turned out to be a very special person. We will never know. At least now, he won't go to sleep in pain, fear, and hunger every night.
We have seen cases of domestic cruelty as it pertains to husband/wife, etc. Often, when the male adult is the abuser of the female adult, it is a matter of control. It is often coupled with the male's humiliation at the workplace. He feels he is under-employed, not given respect, underpaid, etc. Certainly this could be the case sometimes. So he comes home where he will get respect, one way or another -- belittling the spouse, complaining about the meal, the messiness of the house, and the errands she didn't get done that day, etc. So the shows it physically because he can. Revenge, but against the wrong person. Power.
That's often how it is with the abuse of children -- because he/she/they can. A power trip. Some children are more stubborn or mischievous or rebellious; some are the ones who are afraid, or "sissy," or they cry too much, or they are "stupid," etc., etc. It's a toss-up which type they select for the harsh and cruel treatment that sometimes leads to death or permanent disability.
"Yes, you little cry-baby, I am somebody, and I had a bad day."
It's often as simple as that.
It's because they can.

Thank you for responding, borndem. It's just too much right now. Too many innocents, and too much lost potential. Yes, Anthony did seem to have a lot of potential, according to the teacher, and it's been trashed, we will never know what he might have achieved, had he been allowed to live. Like so many others.
