Children inherently rely on their parents for rearing and guidance. That's why I find it particularly sad when orphans get violated, or when children are abused by their own parents.
Such are the tragedies, in the recent events of a father who threw all children over a bridge killing them all after altercation with the mother; and the four children who were killed by the mother.
Should the parent(s) be excused if s/he is found to be insane, as in the case of Andrea Yates? I have reservation condemning Yates since she's obviously very sick. My heart aches for the children who are harmed or killed.
As to the incident of the father killer, I do not have sympathy for him who is a supposedly drug addict and who violates the whole family. He's fit to get death sentence, four times over.
