They'll never get that much. People are probably bidding just to bid.

I don't agree with the public humiliation of any child....especially children that appear to be this young.

The kids were being kids. Sure, something got destroyed in the process but from the sound of it, this damage did not happen within a 5 minute time span. It sounds as though the children may have been left unattended and not being checked on.

Punish the children....great! Take the money from their piggybanks to go towards the damage, take away their toys and make them do chores to 'compensate' for the damage that they did. But this goes beyond a good 'lesson-learned' punishment as far as I'm concerned. The only thing humiliation teaches children is that there are cruel and heartless people in the world.....and one of those people should not be your own parent.

I hope this mother rethinks her tact in this situation and takes responsibility for her part in the damage to her tub. Any mother worth her salt knows that when children are giggling & having a good time in a bathroom without taking a bath....usually means that they're up to something and need to be checked on.

I think it's been pulled again. When you click on their ebay name it doesn't show any current auctions.

I would have just sold the toys without posting the kids pictures all over the internet.

Does look like them.

I looked through the brides (who is a college graduate) wedding photos and read her
photo captions - she is not a very respectful person

I have nothing to do today, so I have been following this developing web drama.

The mothers picture, home address & work name have surfaced. Distorted images of the poor children are all over the internet, dressed as Hitler, jailbirds, holding cocaine & bombs & dildos, wearing signs about anal sex.



Poor kids.

That's terrible. I feel so badly for the kids. They're going to be teased horribly at school if any classmates see it.

Dont agree with what the parents did..

However..I find it hilarious that people are calling the parents abusers and saying things about how the children look in the pictures...about them being lost and tortured and so on...peoples hearts are breaking for these 2 boys.

But when people send in pictures to Ellen of their kids crying or throwing a fit..or screaming in fear because a parent is tricking them or scaring them with something..people think it just hilarious and adorable.

I don't watch Ellen so I have no idea what you are talking about.

What pisses me off the most is this parent took their children's picture at their most vurnable state, then plastered it on the internet.

Think about the last time you were heartbroken over something you had no control over. Then the person that is supposed to protect you and cherish you takes a picture and posts it on the web for the world to see.

They may just be little boys now but as we all know you post it you own. And these boys will have to own it forever and they had no say!

I couldn't imagine doing that to my child or anyone I cared about for that matter.

I was a terrible thing to do. I agree 100%. But to me its the same thing when people send in pics to Americas Funniest Home Videos of their kids screaming in fear of something..or when they are being punished for something and they are crying and saying something (that usually is cute at the time but you can still tell the child is upset)..Or the Ellens photos. Every parent makes a bad choice at least once in their parenting time. I doubt this parent thought it would turn into what it has.

Kids need to learn responsibility. Selling their toys and telling them why she was selling their toys should have been enough. She shouldn't have posted their picture on the internet. They are old enough to learn that actions have consequences. If they threw a baseball into the neighbor's window, they would have to pay for it, same thing, IMO.
I do the same. Keep leaving it laying all over it goes away. Then later date it comes back. Responsibility has become much better!


If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.
