It's so sad to hear and to know that there is still so much physical and mental abuse out there! And SO young too! Makes you wonder what kind of upbringing they've( the abuser) has had! Although, that is NO excuse! The most important point here, that I would like to make, is the innocent and helpless children that get caught up in these situations. I do hope this young offender gets, not only jail time, but some counselling too!! We need to try to avoid repeat offenders, by getting them help early!!! That's my opinion anyway!!
