Preteen siblings kidnap infant to avenge anger
Monday, July 9th, 2007
Two sisters 12 and 10 had to appear before the a Garfield District Court for a charge that says that they had kidnapped 1 year old Brandon and also demanded ransom worth $200.000 from his mother Sheila Wells.
Now what went so wrong that the girls went to the extent of stealthily entering into Sheila’s home at 5.30 am and came out kidnapping her son. There’s no clue as to what’s the reason behind apart from the fact that once the mother banned the younger girl from entering her home as she didn’t behave properly.
When caught red-handed by Sheila, the elder girl confessed that it was the 10 year old’s idea to plan up the whole thing. After being arrested the two will be taken to the
Community
Intervention
Center for juveniles.
No doubts what the girls did is definitely worth being pardoned, but still just think what forced the girls to take the step? It was Sheila’s act of admonishing her and closing her doors to her that left an adverse effect on her mind, to avenge which she planned the whole thing. The girl’s age is not good enough to think about the pros and cons of the situation…so the right way to deal with kids of this age to use tact rather than anger and humiliation and that is what Sheila should have done.Via: Parenting-Weblog
