unfortunately, they dump their children too. a representative of the Baptist Children's Home in St. Louis was at our church and i was complaining about people dumping their animals. he said the home gets more than you would think that were taken on a picnic or some other outing. parents said "oh, i forgot something. you stay here and i will be right back>" never came back. did leave note pinned on child's clothes asking that they be taken to children's home. how traumatic can that be to a 5 or 6 year old. like i said, until we change the hearts of men, these things will continue. animals are more honest. you know which ones you can and cannot trust. dorlis ---- Alice hanson <alicehans...@msn.com> wrote: > > Oh, this just makes me cry!!
