Is our society so feral that children are disposed of 2 make an empty, pathological lifestyle more convenient?

Do you mean Casey Anthony? I believe she's guilty and they've proven her to be a pathological liar already.Her defense team is a joke, their grasping at straws, it's ridiculous.No I don't think her generation of people are all like her, she's one of a kind and that's why this trial is in the media so heavy duty.

This is just a distraction from real issues like hunger and poverty in America and homeless with nothing being done about it.Many people here will not even have air conditioners or money for food. Unemployment benefits have run out and this is a recipe for disaster.The large corporations have out out sourced American jobs. High tech jobs are given to younger people.Many young people do not understand that the customer pays their salary. And they give away lots of free food to friends.

Depends on the individual I'd say. As an ordinary - average human being myself, I feel and think, her family is as guilty as she is. By looking at her mom and dad were not very good role models to her. How responsible (sarcastically saying) they brought her up. Look at the case, I mean the court questioned them how they buried their pets one by one. The woman her dad had an affair with sold her story to media. Casey lived with her parents and none of her parents questioned their daughter for whereabouts of their young grandchild for a month of her disappearance! Invisible nanny, yeah right. I won't be surprised if they too are involved in the murder of the young toddler...Such dysfunctional family!!!

Hmmm, not typical, but representative.

Our grandparents would never believe that a mother would kill her child. 30 years ago this case would not even get into a court.

My teenaged niece would do something like that if she was having PMS.
