5 Minutes Free Writing - Poor Thing!
Good morning all, doing my 5 minutes free writing with prompt - Poor Thing! Hope you enjoy the story.
Yesterday we were given an update on a murder case that shocked the nation. The last accused in a case where by a 4 years old girl was murdered by her mother together with her then boyfriend.
Such a cruel thing to happen, the 4 years old is a little poor thing, she don't choose her parents from the perspective of science.
Her parents divorced shortly after she was born, she was raised by her grandma till she moved in with her mother. As the case detail is quite disturbing, I would skip the details. But I guessed her mother probably wasn't quite ready to be a parent.
Not forgetting the fact they divorced, maybe the parents didn't part way on good terms. Her presence could have triggered certain reminder of her father to her mother, who would by now her ex husband.
So this incident tells us the importance of parenting, we should enter parenthood when we are ready, as nurturing a life is a great responsibility and not something that allows one to give up mid way the journey. And the little one has no choice and ability.
