Poor little boy deserved a better mum and a certain insensitive admin with his comments on here. :(

Inappropriate or not, children cannot choose their parents, but early signs would suggest that that little bastid poor sods life is pretty much doomed... In which case he might have been better off freed from this existence. Obviously I would hope that it will go on to great things, but unfortunately the reality is likely to be the opposite  :'(

I would like to think that was the gist of TBs rather abrupt post rather than the way it reads...

That's as maybe - however, I'd really like to hear it from the admin directly rather than somebody else's interpretation of what he might have meant.  :-X

What have her family done to deserve that?

Well, they did produce and presumably raise her. In the event that they are decent folk who don't deserve that, I would be happy to shoot her in front of my family.  :y :D

Just thank God she took no innocent persons life, have not read the article but in my opinion she should receive a ban for life, probably the worst bit of driving I have ever seen.

I dare say some of you will have seen this already but.......holy shit  :o

Coventry drink-drive mum jailed for Peterborough crash

Jeez, I'd read about it but hadn't seen the video.  :o 
It says she was going to a 'wake', it was very nearly her own.  :o  Very lucky that the outcome wasn't much worse.

I witnessed a driver do almost the same thing in a Saab 9000 about 6 months ago. Not due to alcohol - not sure what happened but he was in his senior years with a few chronic medical conditions, so could have blacked out. Just didn't appear to register the fact that there was a roundabout ahead. :-\

He was talking and seemed OK by the time the paramedics took him away so hopefully made a full recovery. I doubt his SAAB did.

He missed a large tree on the roundabout by a few inches. Impact with that would have changed the outcome for the worst.

The best outcome for the young lad would be to be raised by someone a bit more responsible instead, IMHO, but that's probably not going to happen.

Probably not. More likely seen as part of the "mass cull"
