I just got home from worked and watched this program on television about feral children. It was pretty interesting, these were children who, in some cases, were raised by dogs. The damaging effects of this was they became wild and inhuman, unable to speak. These were children that were victims of extreme neglect. What I found interesting about the program was that what ALL the cases had in common, was that these children were abandoned by their mothers. No mention of a father in any of the cases, I've seen. One girl told her story about how her mother wanted a boy, but instead got a girl... so the mother put her in a dog kennel. She was breast fed by the dogs she was with, and the dogs would share their scraps of food, and that's how she survived. It was the most horrifying and sickening abuse I've ever heard of.

By God, what a sad, sad state of affairs these poor children must have endured

It's horrific, truly.

This is actually a clip of the program I saw.

Some of these stories turn out not to be true.

Just remember the case in Cambodia about a 'wild girl' missing for decades...living among wild animals ...but there are not so many 'wild' animals there anymore.

However after serious medical examinations the story was more or less a fake. She went missing, but only for a few years and was living with dogs, chicken and other domestic animals together somewhere out in the fields.

And it is always a 'little helpless girl' without father who is missing....
some newspapers make a good story out of that and some people living in the Western world really believe that...

Well, the program I saw wasn't a Tarzan story. There are real children that are neglected and then exhibit animal-like behavior.

I drive a taxi in a 'disadvantaged' area of Sydney Australia

there are whole villages of welfare housing with 100% welfare dependant households headed by single mothers receiving chronic welfare cheques from the Federal Government - going back three generations

momma can scratch her arse and that is about all except for having half a dozen kids with various itinerant fathers

each child gets benefits and goes to their local 'disadvantaged' school

that is how they live

drug dealing, theft

I always wonder if they will rob me or actually pay the fare

the kids are feral and I have seen 12 to 13 boys drinking beer in the parks near their "homes" others actually injecting near their local swimming pool

there are girls about 15 or 16 pushing prams with babies some maybe 18 months to 2 years old - do some arithmetic allowing for the gestation period as to what age she fell pregnant !!!!!

however the Federal Government pays each $A 5000 for each child

as I drive past the local parks they throw rocks at the taxi and the local bus company refused to run their buses there any without a police escort

the 'parents' have thyeri kids alonside them when they go to the local methadone clinic which the junkies trade for 'speed '

you see the role of the father is simply a sperm donor momma doesn't respect him or need him to bring home the bacon she respects only the Centrelink security benefits where all her details are kept on a data base

ain't feminitism productive of good fruit

Blimey, Sydney is just like England with more sunshine then.
