peggyd: Both those stories were in the Wash Post ... and seemed local. Did you read them online?
I read another sad story today: a father left his "newly adopted" 21-month-old son in his SUV yesterday, for "most of the day" with tragic results. He was supposed to drop him off at daycare but went to work instead. I suspect he forgot, not being in the routine.
I was holding my breath waiting to read what country the boy was adopted from: Russia. The Russians will be all over this & it'll be another reason to not allow international adoptions. Very sad for the family. Poor father must feel horrible.

barb: Yes - I go to the Washington Post for my comics and sometimes stick around for other things. I am sorry to hear about this really awful story. It is unbearable.
