She must not be a very good stripper if they're living in a motel room littered with trash and vomit. Yuck - poor kids!

Based on that mug shot, I'd pay her to keep her clothes ON.

Sterilization is called for.

Whats with the "piles of vomit"? At first glance I thought the Dad was just playing video games and not watching the kids, which is bad enough, but when I read that both the mother and father were not even in the building...I'm always amazed at stories like this. Makes me feel like Mother of The Year.

Farmer Bob....them bringing future spawn onto the planet is obviously a bad idea, but sterilization doesn't nothing for the ones that are already here~

Send the kids off to a good adoption agency...people will pay a lot of money these days for a nice mixed breed. ooops, was that wrong?

In other news, the power authority noted that Fantasy Dolls has now paid it's electric bill and the lights will be turned back on soon....so the lovely misses will be out of a job.

Someone posted under the original story that it must be stupid parent day.

Every day is Stupid Parent Day for this pair.

I really think you should have to pass a test, or *something*. Squeeze out a puppy, pass the test or they go directly to the agency. I'm sick to blanking DEATH of reading these stories!!

These 2 are definite candidates for the next Volcanic Drop.

Their children would be better off without them.

Posted by: Anna | May 5, 2008 2:04:46 PM

Sterilization will not help the 2 kids they already have but as she is still in childbearing years it could still be a positive to tie up her tubes & snip out his.

Yea, like this is unusual behavior for this demographic...as if their behavior at chucky cheese or any other public place isn't bad enough.

Typical...

AT LEAST THEY DIDN'T HAVE 300 DEAD CATS IN THEIR FREEZER.

Sheesh, cut them a break. I'm sure they neglected the kids as best they could!

Cherie, even as a fatty i didn't try to hide the fact i didn't have a jawline. you just end up drawing attention to it.

Posted by: boynamedsue | May 5, 2008 2:46:23 PM

At least the vomit was in nice piles.

The story is incomplete. It doesn't say which video game they were playing.

Sterilize? Hell these two should be duct taped in burlap and thrown in the river (TO DROWN). Nice mugshot dude. You look rediculous.
