Do you ever think that some people ought to get licenses to qualify for parenthood before they give birth?
Here's one recent news story that might cause you to think so.
One Tempe, Arizona mother wasn't about to let anything as "unimportant" as her 5-year-old kid stop her from going out to party at a local night spot. "Mother-from-Hell" -Marquita Renee Martin- decided that it was perfectly okay to leave her precious son- a toddler- home at their apartment by himself from 10 p.m. until well after 3 a.m., while she grooved away the wee hours at a club, without a passing thought of the little tyke.
Concerned cops came on the scene, after a neighbor, who was, obviously, far more concerned about Martin's child than she was, called them because she was worried about the wee darling. According to reports, the police discovered the frightened boy, who was crying and cowering under a blanket. Fortunately, he wasn't hurt, but probably traumatized beyond belief. Imagine the surprise of the "Good Time Gal" when she arrived back at her apartment, only to be arrested and charged with felony child abuse.
Believe it or not, Martin was released "on her own recognizance." For the sake of her poor kid, let's hope this was a wake-up call for this negligent matriarch
