A Cincinnati woman allegedly beat her 5-year-old son for not doing his homework quickly enough.
According to WLWT, the NBC affiliate in Cincinnati, 27-year-old Bianca Anderson stands accused of whipping her son with a belt Aug. 25. The boy had just started kindergarten at Roll Hill Elementary.
A teacher at the school tells the station she noticed the boy was bruised, and upon closer examination, found massive bruises on his back.
The boy allegedly told the teacher his mother was responsible for what police reports call "severe bruises." Police tell the station the beatings apparently began because the boy was not doing his homework quickly enough.
Anderson told a judge Sept. 20 that she is working with the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services and voluntarily taking anger management classes.
WLWT reports she was released on her own recognizance.

Parents File Suit After Hospital Mistakenly Declares Child Dead
The parents of an 8-year-old boy have sued a Chicago hospital, alleging doctors pronounced their son dead though he was still alive.
The lawsuit, filed this week, accuses Mercy Hospital and Medical Center of negligence. It says doctors refused to listen to relatives of Jaylen Dorsey when they insisted the Chicago boy's eyes and body were still moving.
The suit says nearly five hours passed before staff agreed to perform a cardiac ultrasound that showed Jaylen's heart was beating.

Ange said...Anger management! What she afraid she may lose her child! Someone should hit her w/ a belt. I still believe what you do to others should be done to you, people may think twice about what they do and the consequences. We’re supposed to be a role model for your children they are fragile at this age, some people don’t deserve to have children. Especially when there are so many people out there who can’t and want them!

pat said...Ew! That is a man! I despise so called parents who hit their children and call it 'discipline'. Picking on those weaker than you is nothing but bullying! And abuse! My own mom, who I have forgiven for my own sake, used to rip my homework into pieces before my eyes and make me do it over and over if it wasn't neat enough and then smack and berate me. Turns out she had a mentally ill mom who beat her with a whip! Disgusting. I plan to stop the cycle when I have kids.

Someone needs to beat her with belt- so she can experience how that child must have felt.

Thank goodness he started kindergarten and the abuse was discovered. Hopefully he's out of harms way now.

janie said...I felt sick when I read this. You have to know this isn't the first time she did this to the child, only the first time she got caught!!!! Take that child away from her and kudos to the teacher!!!!

whisper said...Well SURE. Don't you know that you should just release people who beat their children without any consequences just because they go " O I'm sorry" and take a class? In a couple of weeks they will give that baby back so that she can finish killing him and then they will go "O, we had no idea she would do that!!!" What crap that system is.

Linda Miller said...Released on her own recognizance!!!!!????? What a joke! What recognizance! Her a%*#% should be sitting in jail awaiting trial. That would be a loud shout out to any one who even thinks of harming their children in the way she did.

Mark said...And some idiot let her out? Give that woman the belt and the book. Sorry excuse for using up oxygen. But then again, you can't put her in jail, she will only get out on extended early release. God help us all.

fred said...The sad truth is that if he is taken away from her for good, it will be hard to find a home for him because of the abuse, people will be afraid he'll be difficult or violent himself. Maybe someone should give him karate lessons so he can stay with her and kick her ass, or do the world a favor and kill her.

Bill said...But wait... the article didn't say what happened to the child. Is he being returned to Maniac Mom? Family member? Child Protective Services?

Boo said...So you beat your 5year old son b/c he's not doing his homework quick enough, WTF! She wasn't satisfied that he was doing his homework period. At least he WAS doing his homework. But you know I believe she has been beating on this little boy for a while. My heart goes out to this little boy. I hope they beat her azz in jail the way she beat her child. Reading stories like this makes me go home and hug my son. Peace!

CL said...I agree, there's no reason to hit a child, but just being satisfied that he's even doing his homeowrk has led to the rest of the world surpassing the US in education.

Kitty59 said...Don't let her have her son back. Once that starts, it NEVER stops. IF the physical abuse decreases, the verbal/mental abuse will take over (so no one can see the bruises). He's better off with Grandparents or other relatives who will only allow supervised visits with the abusive nut case!!

kenhp1 said...I can't believe they let her go. to use a belt and put bruises all over his back. How sick!!! This woman needs to be whipped herself.
The kid is in kindergartin for god sakes. And they let her go.
She should be sterilized. I hope she does some time with Mothers who love and miss their kids. Let her suffer the same fate as her son....

Jayo said...Yes indeed, you can be sure this child has been beaten prior to this last event. It will take a good bit of time and effort to get him on the road to recovery. This mother will most probably not be the person that can make amends. This kind of abuse is what could led to gang and/or other undesirable activities.
