So its not that they Just were not qualified, They were ALSO REALLY STUPID. or maybe they were selfish and did not care. I Cant say for sure. ALL I can say is they DID deserve to be punished. As Breast-Feeding, or Formula from Bottles given to them by the hospital, as they said the hospital Gave them formula, Its STILL the same and the baby would have been Fed and Would not have starved.

      This! ^
      Not only could she have been suffering from postpartum, she could have been dealing with trauma from the birth, complete isolation, lack of sleep because she had an unsupportive husband, she had a baby crying all the time, along self-doubt and guilt over her inability to get the baby to feed/latch correctly, and she was not getting appropriate support from health professionals.
      It’s not easy for every mother. Some babies find it difficult to latch - I know as my daughter struggled and had to have a ‘snipped tongue’ procedure at the age of 3 weeks.
      What really let this baby and the mother down was that a health professional or a doctor wasn’t able to intervene to show her how to feed correctly, under direct tuition, or to make the call that the baby wasn’t breastfeeding and needed formula, which would once again be fed under supervision.

      It was known at the time. Have you ever read “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman? It’s from 1892 and discussed it. There are other accounts of PPD from long before that. I’d say everyone in the psych field was well-aware by the time, but the Andrea Yates case in 1993 made the general public familiar with it. That’s probably why she only got manslaughter in the second degree and 3 years in this episode. Mitigating factors, she still needs to be held accountable for her gross negligence.

    Breast may be 'best,' but she should have taken the hint that her child needed more to eat when she was given the formula as supplementary measure. Many new mothers have difficulty producing milk. It's not an uncommon condition. The father/husband not calling the police, inexcusable at best.

    It's true that the father could've done something. He pushed her to have that child and left her with it. If person that is depressed can't even take care of themselves, how on earth can a woman that has had her freedom robbed from her by a vile man and a child meant to be able to take care of a child? I assume that she is not taking care of herself either. She seems to be relying on people and is simply mentally removed from the situation. Having a child is not something simple.

All that "I don't know" sounds more to me like "I don't care" because even if one does not know, one tries their damndest to find out, not sit in the chair and watch tv at a loud volume. Why did she not reach out to family and friends if she did need help? She just gave up after a nurse gave her wrong advice. If she REALLY did not want a kid with the guy, why not just leave him?

      She didn't actively murder him. Baby died from neglect. He starved. Both of them were the parents and responsible for his well being.

      He could've fed his son. He didn't. He was the baby's parent, too. When a baby dies of neglect in a home with two parents, both are guilty. Taking care of a baby isn't just the mother's job.

      The baby wasn't shaken or beaten. He died slowly over weeks from malnutrition and starvation. Anyone could have fed that baby and yes that includes the man (father of the baby)

      He wasn't the whole problem. But he was part of it.
