How TF do you look at piles of documented cases of child neglect by their parents and be like "Yep these people are totally fit to raise this child."
@@sonofsalt4079 He shouldn't be a Judge any more. This error in judgement is so huge it is enough all on its own.
good question.
They're FAR too Trusting!
That judge should be removed from his position
People are absolutely willing to look the other way as soon as you play the religion-card. It's insane. Even taxes and CPS.
That judge was genuinely evil for making him go back to his biological parents. Imagine how much happier the poor kid wouldve been if he got to stay with his REAL family that loved him.
He should lode his job and be behind bars
I think this is illegal in South Korea to deny healthcare of underage children after a girl died of cancer because religious parents refused threatment, this got into national news and they were forced to give her threatment, but removed her from it and died, reportedly she didn't look at anyone in her last days
I wouldn't say Evil.
I would say that He was too hopeful in Humans, without knowing the Family too Well.
@@enderkatze6129”what are they gonna do, withhold medication they just watched him almost die. Thad be insane”
Ya it would be insane BECAUSE THEY ARE INSANE!!!
Right?! He applied a logic and ‘benefit of the doubt’ that should never be applied to an abuser smh
Honestly the fact that they fought so hard to have him no matter how sick they saw him get in their own hands is just proof to me that they WANTED to torture and murder a child, and were reluctant to have that chance taken from them. There is no other reason to fight so hard just to cause death. They knew what they were doing and they loved every minute of it.
Thats the thing I dont get about these cases. I dont want to look after children, so I havent made any. If it happens by accident, and they get taken away by government, why would i fight to get them back?
Don't ascribe malice to what can be explain with pure idiocy.
They were fanatics. That's it. No education, no care, just blind fanaticism.
"God will do this, God will do that. Everything is God's Will and if anyone tries to get in the way of God's Will, well, they MUST be the Devil."
And even more ironically, at no point do they stop to think "why the fuck would God take care of MY kid over everyone else's".
no it's malice, it's one thing to assume the best of people with no or little info. But they've PROVEN that they actively enjoy torturing childing.
Your reasoning is exactly why people like the judge enable the abuse, it's dangerous to think that way@@lyravain6304
@@lyravain6304no. No religious belief is stronger than the reasonable concern of your child's health. They were told repeatedly exactly what they needed to do, they proved they were capable, but unwilling. Do not conflate faith with ignorance. There is no humane reason for this outcome.
If one believes in God, they should have the notion that healthcare was, by default, a product of God's will. They moved provinces just to continue torturing this poor boy. They calculated exactly how to neglect him, then brought their church over to show them the corpse. And the church told them to call the police. If the church they go to agrees with modern medicine, it wasn't an idea planted in their heads. They did this.
@@blakewhite3131 religious people need to be able to tell the difference from delusion and reality. It’s a real danger that causes instances like these.
Judge Gary Cohen has Alex's blood on his hands. Why would you return this child back to his parents, when they've already shown such little disregard to his wellbeing. Unbelievable!
My daughter is a nurse at a national Children's hospital. She is looking for a new job. Even when the abuse is obvious, documented, and repetitive ~ social services continues to give horribly abused children BACK to their abusers. 🤬
The whole world has gone to 💩!
@@Stacey0909 Terrible! Though this was a judges decision. Not an overworked and underpaid social worker under a lot of pressure.
@@julieelliott5807yeah way to defend social services 😒 social workers only make shit worst. I don’t give a damn if they’re overwork and underplayed none of that explains why they over and over again return abused children back to their abusers
That is exactly what I said in my head. The judge played just as much as a role in his death as his parents did. He should be serving time in jail! Who goes against the doctors, teachers, social workers, and foster mom’s judgment and sides with the parents!?
in USA at least the version of it i was born in - beaurocracy and paperwork and doing things the way the system wants is more important then people getting there medicines. i have no doubt the usa court system will be happy to keep doing the exact thing they aloud to happen to this poor boy
Religion should not be a valid excuse for denying medical care to a CHILD. This is horrifying.
Nothing should be a valid excuse for denying medical care to a child.
Religion and prayers are a pretext, for some, the church is a kind of machine for washing sins...once absolved, they can start their vices again..
I agree with you, but you have to think of it this way. If your beliefs are set then you'll refuse care for your child.
I think it's screwed up, but if I believed God didn't want my child to get a tetanus shot then I'll damned if they'll get one.
@@fishypaste Then you'd be an idiot. The purpose of life as set by God is to live and spread. If your child gets tetanus... they'll be doing neither.
I mean even Jesus ran around healing people. Priests and nuns throughout history have been known to be healers.
So, even if you are a devout religious person. What exactly would make someone think God doesn't want people to get medical treatment when all the evidence points to the contrary.
@@Tina-ik6dq Yeah which is why being "born again" is bullshit. You can only be baptized once and doing it again means nothing. What DOES mean something is if one is TRULY repentant and tries to do better by others and themselves.
The daughter of his foster mom recalling that he loved Halloween and they had to make accommodations for his diabetes but still let him enjoy the holiday shows that they gave that little boy (and his diagnosis)1000x more love and care than his "parents" ever did.
Amen🦋⚘️🍀🙏🏽☯️
1000 X 0 is still zero. The foster mom cared about that child infinitely more than his abusers ever did.
I blame it all in that judge who moved Alex back to his "parents". Saying "they must've learned their lesson" and judging them by his own standards was a horrible mistake. Actions against neglect should be more strict with fewer second chances, especially against severe cases like starving a 3 yo kid. Poor baby was failed by his parents and the law.
Me too, I blame the f°°°°g judge he should go jail to.God bless the little angel
The judge who naively returned this poor child to his parents was unbelievably, totally unbelievably ignorant. He basically sent the child to his death.
I wonder if that Judge ever faced any consequences for his decision, but I suppose not. Sick world.
judges have way too much power as it is. And being able to do what they did to Alex...disgusting. The judge should have been on trial. Way too much evidence against the parents to have allowed that.
if the child was black or brown he would have been put into state care and be allowed to live while creating a cash cow for an agency or non brown/black foster family somewhere. child protection in north america is tainted by racism and colonial capitalism.
As someone who is a victim of medical neglect via parents due to "religious reasons" this story hits hard. I'm sure that had I had any sort of severe condition like diabetes, my parents would've let me die. I can only imagine the suffering Alex must have gone through, largely due to the repeated incompetence of the justice system.
I'm sorry you had parents like that. That is not fair or right
What's fucked up about this case is that the pastor came to trial and outright said "they're lying, we don't do that." So it wasn't religious at all. They just let the child suffer because it was more convenient for them.
@@jackblack3718thats the pastor lying. Religious people are like that.
@@mrtophat12 idk man. The only religious sect I know that forbids modern medicine is Christian Science and some very small, rare pockets of evangelicals. All of which are shrinking and failing because what they say is demonstrably flawed. There's like a 1-100 chance the mom was lying, or adding her own "spin" on her pastor's teaching.
@@mrtophat12 He's not lying. Yes, religious people are like that and some of them are the biggest monsters to ever walk on Earth, but the truth is the religion itself doesn't teach such things. Those evil abominations just use the religion as an excuse.
37 lbs at 15 is absolutely unimaginable. That poor soul suffered through his whole life. Truly heartbreaking.
He in heaven now. Where he will not be harm anymore he is in god hands I hope he have justice
37 is actually fucking crazy. Im 13 and 115 pounds god damn😭🙏🏻
Seriously, that's the weight of a two year old
Thinking about it, all that weight would have been just his bone--weight. He was practically a skeleton. How he was treated enrages me. I am sick to my soul.
I just started the video, and haven't got to that part yet. But 37 pounds is insane.
Edit: I got to the part. I'm not sure if I can continue the video :(
How on earth was he ever allowed to be with his parents after so many near death experiences?!?!?! This case is absolutely infuriating and heartbreaking.
Because the system will always favor children being with their blood-related parents over people that actually give them a good life. It's part of the US's failed system I've realized over the years. The state will always give children back to their parents no matter what, it's why you'll find kids in completely disheveled homes, starved, abused, and dirty even when CPS has visited that house multiple times and taken those kids away, they always end up back there due to their parents wanting them and the state wanting kids to stay with birth parents
The system failed him just as much as his parents
But if one of his parents failed a drug test for so much as marijuana that kid would be yanked out of their custody at the speed of light, and it would take them at least a year to regain custody.
In my experience telling the social workers "I'm a good christian mother trying my best" is social worker repellent. Or at least it worked for my mother. Also helps to not be indigenous as the agencies seem to mostly care about tearing apart indigenous families
@@Viranical Look at Ruby Franke. She abused and starved her kids and filmed it and posted it all over TH-cam as "content" for YEARS and got away with it until recently. Her two youngest almost died. They saw a wealthy white woman in a nice house, in a upscale neighborhood, and they figured she couldn't possibly be a monster and a child abuser neglecting her kids. They were SO wrong! She's Mormon and the state of Utah has some of the most lax laws regarding child abuse.
Minorities and the low income are targeted and terrorized by CPS, while the upper middle class and upper class monsters get away with flaunting their abusive tendencies... Online no less!
The were testing someone elses blood and that shows they knew exactly what they were covering up. If they really thought diabetes didnt exist why go through all that to cover the blood results up.
The fact Alex was returned countless times is just heartbreaking.
Yeah I don't know how that stupid Judge who ordered him back to his parents can sleep at night. This boy did NOT have to die!
Mother should be kept in mental institution from the get go
They had 8-9 kids...so I'm sure it wasn't hard to just "test" the blood of one of their other kids. 🙄
@psychicrenegade were you trying to add something or just stating the obvious? Yes that had other kids and yes they were testing other family members instead of the child with diabetes 🙄
This is horrendous, I hope they rot in jail
The church members saw this dead teenager and prayed instead of immediately calling the police?! Telling the father to call isn’t enough. They were adults, and never called themselves. The adult siblings knew what was going on, and just went about their lives?! The judge that gave this child a death sentence by sending him back to his parents also has blood on his hands.
That’s what I was thinking, they are all sick
@@tomdragamerthey are full of shiz
Now they never said what they were praying for. Probably were praying because of the situation. Immediately when he saw Alex, the pastor told the father to call the police. How many people do you think should be calling the police at one time? For all we know they were praying because they thought to themselves this might be the most crazy family that we've ever seen in our life...Also to blame the siblings is a huge stretch they were raised in that environment with minimal outside influence, their minds were conditioned to that being normal. No school or outside activities you'd be surprised at what you think is everyone's norm....😢
@@chavil73 Adult siblings are NOT responsible for the actions taken. I never said they were. Being raised in a shitty situation doesn’t mean you are completely blind to how the world works. The treatment may have been the norm within their home, but an adult already in the world would know it’s not the overall general norm within society. Again it’s not the adult siblings fault, but to know what was happening is illegal…as an adult living independently in the world would know this…it seems a moral issue for them to turn a blind eye. Moral issue not criminal.
Unless there is a cognitive/mental diagnosis that would prevent them from understanding how the world works…they knew it was wrong.
The minute the church member saw the victim in that state they should’ve called immediately! It would be more than obvious the judgement of the parents is completely flawed and not to be trusted. It shouldn’t have been a moments thought to call 911. An instant action. Not waiting to try and convince an abuser/liar/murderer/an individual that tortured his child to call 911. There are times for prayer and time for action. Not to hem haw around, pray, encourage the victim’s dad to call 911, and hope that he will comply. An immediate reflex to call for help. The church and the adult siblings are NOT responsible for the child’s death…I want to make that clear.
You can take action and have prayer in your heart. You can quickly ensure the safety of the other children in the home, and have prayer in your heart. You can quickly exit the home to provide room for emergency services, and have prayer in your heart. You can exit the home as not to contaminate a potential crime scene, and still have prayer in your heart.
I can see we view the world differently. We have different perspectives, and different beliefs. That’s okay. I hear you, and respect what you have to say. We can agree to disagree.
@@txmoilga7067Thank you for your well written explanation. I was formulating one in my head when I saw yours and I am grateful not to have to type it out on my phone.
how alex was even given back to his parents after the first hospital visit is absolutely horrific . this has to be one of the worst cases of neglect i have ever heard in my entire life . rip
I want to know how no one saw this skeletal kid. No way he went unnoticed.
@OnlyTwoShoes RIGHT I think this too for all of these cases like HOW ??? it's just .. plain ignorance in my opinion .. if you see something say something !!!
@@OnlyTwoShoes I bet you that their church knew.
@@RichTapestrydoubtful
I think the real mess up here was the fact that the court didn't require mandatory check ups just incase. But thats the problem with our system is after a couple of months they think theyll keep it up after that.
This has to be one of the worst cases I've ever heard of. He suffered for YEARS like this. 37 pounds for a 15 year old! I can't get over how that's even possible. Poor Alex. RIP.
I haven’t even gotten to that part yet… but 37?? My 3 year old is between 30-35 lbs and he’s a small kid 😭
Right.. my son is almost 4, barely 40 pounds.. I can’t even imagine the sight
@@isabelleking3279 seriously sometimes I think my 3 year old looks a little too skinny and he’s literally 5 lbs or less lighter than this 15 year old was 😭😭
My 15 year old weighs 115. Most of her friends weigh more
you can look online for the birthday video. It is horrific. How his siblings could think this was ok is beyond me.
As an ICU nurse, your description and distinctions between type 1 and type 2 diabetes was spot on and extremely accurate!
As a type 1 I try to educate folks of the difference between all forms of diabetes. Not just 1 and 2... nothing worse than someone thinking cinnamon will cure you ! lol
@@CarsCatAliensahh that miraculous cinnamon.
As type 1, my mother is convinced if I had hummus or peanut butter sandwiches for lunch, I'd be so much better 😅
@@GingerLocks96 lol "Oh your sugars low, do you need insulin" ☠️
@@CarsCatAliens23 years T1D and my family still say that. It's a miracle I survived to adulthood tbh.
@@Miss-Kitty-Cat if I hadn't have been diagnosed as an adult, I'm sure I'm wouldn't have lasted long 🤣
That Judge was extremely, extremely naive to believe these people couldn't possibly neglect their son like that again. He tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, and made a terrible call sending him back to his parents. And dear god, these anti-medicine/anti-doctor people are DANGEROUSLY insane.
I believe that any parent who refuses life-saving medical care for their child have the child taken away and be charged with child abuse.
ikr? it should be obvious. (It’s one thing when there’s doubt, but when the diagnosis, needed treatment, and deadly consequences of not properly treating has been confirmed over and over and over by multiple doctors there’s just no excuse for not intervening immediately and decisively in such egregious cases of medical neglect.)
I just want to scream at judges that can't imagine that parents could ever, ever abuse their children that "You are a good person but THEY ARE NOT YOU! THEY DON'T THINK LIKE YOU!!! Look at the evidence and DO NOT ever assume they are like you. Do what is right for the child first."
You two are doing a good service highlighting that this horrible abuse does happen to children and we all must try to prevent it.
Society simply does not want to face the hard truth that 90% of child abuse is committed by the child's parents.
This sucks but parents* are ruining it for them. You try to speak on the well being of another child and parents are at your throat as if being a mother or a father suddenly makes you infallible it actually makes you prone to make more mistakes. Parents just think they and they alone know what’s best for their child which means they’ll probably end up just like them.
Exactly! If that judge wants to believe parents wouldn’t hurt their children, he shouldn’t rule on cases like this!
Especially since in these cases, the parents are sitting in front of them, asking for them kids back BECAUSE they abused them so horribly that NOBODY IS TAKING THEIR SIDE!
seriously, i have no idea how people so ignorant, self-centred and narrow minded become judges. talk about being in the wrong profession.
That was the most horrific case I've ever heard of child abuse by starvation and lack of medical care. That first judge is a disgrace. Those parents don't deserve to live.
Unfortunately Canada doesn't have the death penalty.
The nerve to have like 9 kids too when you abuse your children is so fucking insane to me like???
@@spyderbyte7924 It's just like I say all children deserve parents but not all parents deserve children. And I feel so sorry for that poor little boy. R.I.P little man.
@@lorettasearcy1471the big problem with the death penalty is what happens when you accidentally kill an innocent
@@dollzo I know that plenty of people in this country that are innocent get put on death row. Like the west Memphis three Damien Echols got sentenced to death,all because the cops wouldn't leave Jesse Miskelly alone. They knew he had a low I Q but they took an Alford plea and got out. Those boys didn't kill those 3 little boys an adult did.
As a Type 1 diabetic and a Christian, this absolutely disgusts me. This isn't death because of a incurable disease. This is murder. God bless Alex
my father died due to complications with type 1 diabetes and being unable to afford insurance, insulin, and medical care.
it infuriates me that these people had so many resources provided freely at their disposal and refused to do anything about it.
That’s heartbreaking. I’m so sorry for your loss
My bf didn't have health insurance and couldn't afford insulin....he ended up in a coma and lost his vision. Our medical systems in the US are so inhumane.
I'm so sorry for your loss!! 😢 I lost my oldest son at only 7 years old, due to serious medical conditions. I also lost my father when I was two years old & I just lost my mother June 2023, due to heart, ❤ liver, & kidney problems. It's absolutely heartbreaking 💔 to lose someone that you loved unconditionally & looked up too. It feels like a piece of you has died along with them. 😢😢
I'm sorry for your loss❤. I got diagnosed at 22 and it completely changed my life for the worse.
Wait how much is insurance in your area? Sorry,i live in eu, it sounds horrible to me
It’s one thing to refuse medical care for YOURSELF as an adult. But to refuse it for your minor child should be a crime. This is so sad
I think it is actually
Medical Drs do make errors too, it happened to me not once but about 4 times! The last time, I saved myself, by seeking help to an international medical Agency... not to Drs. and i was cured...
Well, that judge should be kicked off the bench
@@shannond1511not in the US. In most states, but especially Idaho, it's legal to allow your children to die from vaccine-preventable diseases without medical care, or chronic diseases, cancer, etc as long as you cite religious beliefs.
Idaho, the white Christofascist homeland, where you can go to prison for having an abortion, will freely allow you to let your infant die. Their life isn't precious after the cord is cut.
@@lsophial It's awful that happened to you, but it's not even remotely applicable in this case.
Judges need to accountability for the decisions. This is ridiculous.
This hit hard. I had a friend growing up who had T1. His mom and my mom were BFFs. His mom took great care of him, but his dad was abusive to his mom and neglectful to my friend and his sisters. When he was 10 his parents divorced, when he was 12 he went to live with his dad, typical kid wanting to be where there were no rules. Part of that was he wasnt made to take care of his diabetes. By 18 he was blind and he died at 26. Because he was an adult, his dad was never held responsible for his responsibility in my friends death. Ive never seen my dad so angry. My friend was like another child to him. Its the only time im my life i ever heard my dad talk about "an eye for an eye". Im 48 now and have no idea what happened to him but i hope Karma took care of him.
Ahh that's so horrible :( rip to your friend🌹♥️
So many people tried to help Alex to keep him with his foster mother while he was thriving can't believe the judge went against all this and gave him back. I hope he sees his face every time he goes to sleep
Poor fella didn’t stand a chance with horrible parents like that. These cases are terrible, unfathomable and completely preventable.
I hate it when people refuse to get themselves or their children into the hospital because "God will cure us". I'm starting to think that they're just trying to avoid paying for medical care cause I'm pretty sure God would have no issue with you using the help that is available for you and your family.
This happened in Canada so they cant even use that excuse 😢
@@briemorrison6610 You've gotta be kidding me.
It always reminds me of the modern parable of the drowning preacher. But it's *worse* because it affects other people, not just the individual refusing the help.
For reference, here's the parable in question:
A storm descends on a small town, and the downpour soon turns into a flood. As the waters rise, the local preacher kneels in prayer on the church porch, surrounded by water. By and by, one of the townsfolk comes up the street in a canoe.
"Better get in, Preacher. The waters are rising fast."
"No," says the preacher. "I have faith in the Lord. He will save me."
Still the waters rise. Now the preacher is up on the balcony, wringing his hands in supplication, when another guy zips up in a motorboat.
"Come on, Preacher. We need to get you out of here. The levee's gonna break any minute."
Once again, the preacher is unmoved. "I shall remain. The Lord will see me through."
After a while the levee breaks, and the flood rushes over the church until only the steeple remains above water. The preacher is up there, clinging to the cross, when a helicopter descends out of the clouds, and a state trooper calls down to him through a megaphone.
"Grab the ladder, Preacher. This is your last chance."
Once again, the preacher insists the Lord will deliver him.
And, predictably, he drowns.
A pious man, the preacher goes to heaven. After a while he gets an interview with God, and he asks the Almighty, "Lord, I had unwavering faith in you. Why didn't you deliver me from that flood?"
God shakes his head. "What did you want from me? I sent you two boats and a helicopter."
@@briemorrison6610 That's right, healthcare is basically free in Canada but in this boy's case specifically, the parents were given all his supplies free of charge.
@@caitlinsnowfrost8244 I've heard something like this before but I never knew it was an actual thing.
The Judge was the Crazy one to think that
and actually give that poor child back to those people that didn't really care about him
I was anorexic for 12 years, I’ve only encountered someone that emaciated once. She passed away shortly after being moved to ICU. I have also seen diabetics not taking their insulin for quick weight loss & the irreversible damage done, same with pet owners ignoring treatment. My heart breaks for this young man. ❤
I appreciate you acknowledging pet owners. If people cannot handle managing diabetes mellitus in their pets, I hope they can be kind enough to surrender them so they can go into special needs homes or fosters too.
Our cat was diabetic, and damn straight, we made sure she had the correct diet and were diligent with her insulin. She has ketoacidosis once because one vet said that free feeding was fine. Btw, many vets seem to be under experienced with type 1 diabetes.
It was terrifying and thankfully she survived. We loved her and wanted to give her the world.
my cat was diabetic, and when she was first diagnosed the doctor begged us to put her down, said we were selfish people for keeping her alive after her diagnosis. she was diagnosed at 7, and only just passed away at 17. she only needed insulin at first shockingly, a new vet kept her monitored and she was pretty healthy all things considered until the past 6 months or so, since her arthritis got so bad that pain medication no longer worked
i cant imagine going against vet directions for medication, if you have doubts then get a second opinion like you do with people but dont just ignore the experts ffs
That judge is a joke.
He must've not seen very many things in life.
Edit: the judge that gave the kid back to the family and ran on the assumption that the family wasn't being maliciously negligent.
She. Also why? They got the maximum sentence, I believe.
@@BeckBeckGothey meant the original judge who gave the child back to them
And the judge said they’d have to be crazy to do it again. That was his reasoning for thinking the child would be safe. Well they were crazy and an innocent had to suffer for years. When it comes to these types of criminals, I’d much rather put them away than to make a child end up with lifelong trauma or dead.
@@mochimochi7669
EXACTLY! They're clearly being maliciously negligent, the family was clearly only giving their child enough insulin to look good, while they thought wacky holistic methods were healthier for him.
@@BeckBeckGo
He* there's two judges mentioned.
As a person with Type 1, thank you for explaining the differences between T1 & T2, people typically have no idea the differences and assume it's the same thing. As soon as you said 'fruity smell' I knew exactly what that was... This story is terrifying. The disease is really hard to manage, I thank my mom for being alive today. The life he lived was miserable, for those unaware, you'd feel like you have the flu along with the worst hangover of your life at the same time.
My cousins has type 1 diabetes she had to have her left leg amputated just above the knee as she had a wound on her foot and she got necrosis. I think a lot of people don't realise how serious type 1 diabetes actually is.
This one right here made me cry. Grandma Vera loved him so much and they must’ve hugged when she got there. How evil of them, dying from diabetes is such a PAINFUL way to pass. It’s such a long process too. I hope the case worker who pushed for him to stay with Vera can heal and know she tried her best❤️
Normally I look up crime photos, hell, I one time watched Cartels, and what they can do to a human body is... exceptional to say the least, yet so disgusting and abhorrent; they probably end up the same one day or another. But one time I saw something I cannot forget, and I quit it for good, it f with your mind and even though these videos are real, they are so surreal they still look to me as fake, very gory horror clips, only because I live an ocean away and cannot believe one man can do such thing to another.
Hearing the description just makes not wanna even try to look for it, because I simply had enough. I'm psychologically severely weak due to my own illnesses I combat everyday with no end in sight, so much I just given up on ever getting healthy, which you can imagine made my already bad depression even worse. I just don't even feel like getting up anymore. I struggle to get up from bed. Many times I just don't and just sleep or imagine my own stories in my head while laying in bed, eyes closed, because I'm tired of the Internet.
I just fell asleep while writing this post, it's the meds. Fortunately my parents (again fell asleep) tried to help me. It's not their fault my illness didn't went away. I tell you, after some time all those psychologists are all the same, they're tired of you, offer no real solutions, which funnily enough I haven't thought about already, so I stopped going to them, and now I only visit Psychiatrists, who can prescribe meds, unlike Psychologists.
Anyway, this was supposed to be about Alex, sorry for the digression. I can only hope he found peace. That no siblings intervened is just weird, even evil. They saw their brother wither away and did nothing, they're just as complicit. I remember how my brother tortured me psychologically, sometimes physically as well, when I was young and the second just watched and did nothing. For that I am eternally upset with him, he could've told our mother, yet remained silent. He was a coward, like all the siblings in this story. Everyone in the family was physical towards me, then some form of weird acne, unrecognized to this day attacked me after burning my face, shoulders and ... I fell asleep again. Rest in peace Alex, we will have to go out for a beer one day, when I join you with my parents. See ya till then.
The sad thing is, those parents will be in concrete prison cells where they will be free to walk around their small rooms, given adequate medical care, and fed three times a day ... bare essentials they denied their son as they slowly starved him to death over the course of YEARS.
This outright reminds me of the scene in Se7en, the horror-thriller of the man who kills people based on the seven deadly sins, and when the detectives find the man the serial killer punished for being a 'sloth', he was severely emaciated, just a hair above being brain dead, and had eaten his own tongue ... and that fantasy murder victim was STILL better off than the poor boy here.
Fr dude. With OUR tax money as well. Let's not forget that.
Until you recall how child abusers are treated in prison
@@brendanboomhour7606 Even if they get smacked around by the other inmates, that's still better than being slowly starved to death and mummified while you're still alive over the course of years.
Life is short and they will have an eternity to suffer. That sweet boy will be in heaven
Yup if they refuse to eat,they will force feed them by tube! Yet this little boy was starved every day. Cults and people who believe that they have a “ duty and a right” to torture their children, starve them, and worse…..I feel white hatred, I don’t care how they grew up, you have a damn duty to do better! 😡
This was a hard case to get through. My grandparents came from romania to canada. They settled not too far from where this murder took place. Type 1 also runs in the family, and it is SO AFFORDABLE, RESEARCHED, AND KNOWN, that this was such a brutal child abuse case to hear. May Alex rest in peace, may his murderers burn for eternity.
affordable is a little arguable
in canada, affordable.@@bellamyhibler
Canada have universial healthcare, so calling it affordable to them is an understatement.@@bellamyhibler
affordable for canadians, yes. us US folk, however…
It's very affordable in Canada, I also live in Canada however am not diabetic, a friend of mine is.
There is an incredible shortage of caring,qualified foster parents. It would be an awesome thing if people like Grandma Vera would consider it.
This one hit me hard. I am tube fed o
due to severe abuse and neglect from my birth parents. I can’t eat food due to a paralyzed stomach.
I so much appreciate you two bringing awareness to these cases.
Love from Kentucky, Lesley and medical service dog Jake.
I’m so sorry for the abuse and neglect you experienced.
Alex story is so awful,hopefully this ever happens in Canada.
Sorry: never, not ever.
I used to want to foster so badly. After talking to hundreds of foster parents, they said the kids nearly ALWAYS get sent back to their abusive, addict, and/or unstable parents. Now I don’t want to anymore. Unfortunately, the system doesn’t let foster parents save kids. They only get to give them respite from their abuse. It’s so sad!
I wanted to cry when he introduced Grandma Vera, since I knew what was coming.
I can't imagine what suffering this boy went through. I am diabetic and when my sugar is high I feeling like I'm starving to death the hunger pangs are so intense. The longer a diabetic goes without eating the sugar in the blood gets higher and higher. All I can say is judgement day will come to these so called parents. When my kids were sick with the flu or a cold I felt so helpless not to be able to make them better. They could make him better and not allow this child to suffer. How could they just let him rot away like that. I'm so sad and anger for this helpless boy.
That poor boy knew nothing else but pain and pain from his parents! The one whose supposed to love him unconditionally! May you RIP sweet Alex! May you fly high with all of God's Angels. May you know you are loved so very much and you will never ever be forgotten!❤❤❤
Coming from a mom that almost lost a child to Juvenile DIABETES, we didnt find out until she was 13, no Dr.would listen to her or me until thank God 1 Doctor finally did.17days in ICU and now my girl is 26 and still struggles with this I hate both cancer & diabetes. But to purposely hurt your child due to their illnesse(s) is something I HATE WAY MORE! Hell has a special place for people like this.
I agree mu oldest daughter too got diagnosed at 11 yrs old by going in a diabetic ketoacidosis. She was life flighted to children's. We were running different tests to find out what was wrong. She was in coma for 3 days. They wouldn't let us go home from hospital until I understood the care of type 1 they did let her leave early because I learned her stuff quickly. Unfortunately some parents don't care enough to try to get help their children need
@@phantomvampyressshadowkiss4690 same here we had to know the ratio of insulin to give per calories and watch her food intake .
@@lindahamilton3569 I understand that very well too. Do you carb count . My daughter has 60 carbs for breakfast lunch and dinner 30 for her snacks. We can go over our under her ic for breakfast is 9 s I take her carbs and divide that by her 9 then we subtract her sugar reading by her correction formula which is 100 and add the 2 of those together that's her dose . Her long acting is lantus which is15 units she takes every night at 1030. She uses the pen she won't get dex Com or pump but she has eczema really bad tio
That's exactly what we had to do as well it isn't easy, especially when they have a sugar attack 😞😞😭
@@lindahamilton3569 no it can be rough but we have to treat the lows and highs best way we can. I've had to call children's hospital when we first got her diagnosed since I was newer. There's always something to learn with type 1.
After all the abuse the doctors saw how could the judge allow Alex to go back with those monsters?
I would absolutely love to know what the original judge thinks about the outcome of this case. You know, the one that said "these parents just watched their child almost die. Do you think they would do it again? They would have to be crazy"… Well Judge, here's your sign!!! Unreal!!! Shame on him. I was really hoping they were going to tell us if anybody contacted the original judge and what his statement was.
Judge Cohen
@@wms72 Cohen, interesting name.
@@iridescentsea3730 What is THAT supposed to imply???
@@j1947m You know what it's supposed to imply - anti-Semitism.
@@chelimix4580- Yep. The implication is that a gentile judge would not have made that decision.
Unfortunately the judge who released Alex back to his parents will never be held accountable.
I would not be surprised if his foster mom passed from grief, what happened to him was terrible and I just hope wherever they are they're together again.
The amount of pain this precious boy endured for such a long period warrants the death penalty for these monsters.
Absolutely agree 100%
I once met a 12 year old Jehovas witness who was going to die of a very treatable illness because the parents had refused blood transfusions and it was too late now. All this could've been avoided and he could've been a relatively normal boy. Worst thing was that he had a baby sibling who was diagnosed with the same illness. CPS was involved and said they couldn't do anything.
Camel shit they can't do anything!! An emergency injunction can be sought for treatment 🤬
We are not obligated to respect religions beliefs here if it threatens the life of a child. I wouldn't want to do my job otherwise.
They should ban religions that put peoples children in danger
Why exactly do they refuse blood transfusions? Is it like those weird people that think there are microchips in vaccines or something?
@@whychoooseausername4763yep. I could care less about someone's stupid AF beliefs if they're directly hurting their own children. Jehovah's witnesses, and people of any religious beliefs, should not be allowed to practice their religion in a way that hurts their children. Why do they get a free pass to abuse kids just because it's part of their religion? Being antivax and anti blood transfusions and anti healthcare should not be respected at all unless there are valid reasons for it, and those reasons can't be "this god I can't prove the existence of says so".
Out of morbid curiosity I looked up the birthday video. It's horrific. I have seen autopsies of people who died of anorexia who did not look this bad. His arm could fit through a paper towel roll. He was so underdeveloped that he looked half his age even in spite of his sunken face. Worst case of neglect I've ever seen.
I hope that judge that gave Alex back to his parents thinks about him every single day, weighing heavy on him for failing him.
Sweet sweet boy, I can’t listen, seeing the sadness in his eyes is too much. How could a mother not love such a sweet boy
Alex never had a chance. He must of suffered so much. Inexcusable.
Some religions do not believe in medical intervention sadly .
Well "sweet" boy was his fate
@@saxonett🤭
@@janetmoquin7828 it’s just look in his beautiful eyes that’s killing me. It really is. He looks like child who dreamt of hugs and love like he deserved to have
It's shocking how evil some "parents" can be.
That poor baby. He suffered so greatly in his short life.
Whats the point of having kids if you aren't going to take care of them? There are so many options even before the baby is born. Why go through 9 months of pregnancy just to kill that baby?
Sadly, most of these people find pleasure, or joy in torturing innocent children.
Their belief in the concept of "be fruitful and multiply." came from the same place as "modern medicine is evil." When you realize that this is the same mechanism that allowed The People's Church to inject their own crying children with the kool-aid they drank themselves, and (on a political plane) allowed the Khmer Rouge and the Nazis to both justify beating literal newborns on stones and trees, you realize that this is a malfunction in the ideological nature of all humans. It's really not that shocking. Disturbing, yes, but it's not surprising at all.
I can only assume that the abuse itself is the point. Having kids is painful, expensive and time consuming, and even in abusive situations it takes effort to keep a child alive. If this were pure neglect, the child would die within weeks or months of the neglect starting. These people deliberately keep a child alive and suffering, often for years or decades. The only reasonable assumption is that they enjoy it.
People have sex
Sex makes babies
There ya go
If a baby is such a burden to them, why not let the government keep him. Why fight to get him back then kill? I don't get it at all
Oh my word!!! How can a parent watch their child die like that...slowly and painfully... it is murder because they knew what he needed to live and they refused to administer it. This is horrifying and disturbing that others must have seen him at some point and no one did or said anything. That poor child was let down by everyone involved in this.
I've heard of a lot of child abuse and neglect cases, but I think this is by far the worst I've ever heard. The poor boy must have been in agony for years and didn't have the strength to fight back. I also feel bad the other kids. They probably wanted to tell someone, to get help for their dying brother, but were probably too scared to do so. In my mind there is no way that there weren't other kinds of abuse happening in that house. I hope those parents rot in prison for what they've done.
Not to take anything away from his suffering nor add to the horror, but check Lacey Ellen Fletcher's case.
15:34 that judge needs to serve life in prison for murdering that boy. His actions directly resulted in that child’s death. Hold judges accountable for their bad rulings.
Abusive parents (and the idiot judge that allowed this to happen) should get the death penalty, no exceptions.
The judge should be in prison as well. The two heifers and the judge should be in prison and only allowed to eat two slices of moldy bread and a cup of toilet water to drink per day.
I saw this story online and the pictures. It’s absolutely horrific and I can’t stop bawling.
As a side note, no people with type 1 do not have to “eat healthier” or substitute for healthier alternatives. It’s always so frustrating seeing that sentiment shared we can eat whatever we want.
At best, the claimants are naive or confusing it with Type 2. At worst, they are dangerously ill-informed.
It's better to eat healthier in the first place, though, regardless of illness?
@@doc_arsenic8595- The silly claim is that this will fix Type 1 diabetes. Eating healthier will help manage the disease.
My sister can't eat or drink whatever she wants, although she does....hence the complications. She is supposed to watch her starch, her sugar, etc. Not to say a T1 can't 'cheat' at times, but that's why checking sugar regularly and adjusting insulin is so important.
I never understand why some parents seem to have that one child that they neglect and abuse more than any of the other kids. It’s weird, he had like 7 siblings and they all had their issues of that I am sure but what was it with Alex? Was it the diabetes? Did his sister die because the parents refused to supplement her with oxygen? And they didn’t get any charges from that? Nor was that taken into consideration when they were trying to decide if they were going to return Alex back to his parents?!?! I’m just furious and outraged snd disappointed and heartbroken. I hope he’s with his grandma Vera now and I hope he’s in a wonderful place ❤😢
I agree. I don't understand what the parents were thinking at all. They didn't like that he had diabetes so he just... Wasn't allowed to actually have diabetes?
I guess that's the problem with delusion. There's no way for anyone to understand it outside the delusion.
I genuinely hope Alex is happy somewhere.
@@iamaunicorn1232ugh it’s just so unfair to see some people going through hell with IVF or spend thousands on adoptions just because they feel that calling in their hearts to raise a child.
And then, you have these miserable people that shouldn’t even be allowed to adopt a dog from the shelter and yet, they can just keep making babies and keep mistreating them and the US just turns a blind eye cause the social workers and child protection services are overworked, underpaid and just simply too busy to have a fair chance to go through the case files. It’s sad, unfair, demoralizing and quite honestly just enraging. 😢
It's very common in abusive families, unfortunately - it's called being the scapegoat and it can be for the most minor of things, even untrue things that only the parent/s perceive. I was the one in mine; my brothers suffered the effects of our shitty abusive parenting as well, no arguments about that, but we all know I got the worst/brunt of the abuse and we all agree it's very likely it was because I was the only girl - aka, the "different" one. Alex was the "different" one ans scapegoat, in this case :c
@@KoiladaScrewYTHandlesI’m so sorry that you went through that. And your brothers too. You didn’t deserve anything that your parents put you through and I hope you know that. I hope you are having a happy and emotionally healthy life now as an adult and I’m giving you the biggest hug ❤
It's only known that their other children had very young deaths as well. Maybe the parents decided on a different approach with Alex to avoid suspicion. I would think authorities would start getting more involved if a third child died so young. But, I do agree, it's as if the parents enjoyed watching Alex suffer. They knew death was certain and did nothing.
That horrid judge failed that poor child.
As someone who has lived with type 1 diabetes for 34 years and was diagnosed at the age of 2, this case really shook me and I am so upset by how Alex would have suffered. I also wanted to say how well you described the condition in your intro - it is a very misunderstood condition, but you explained it so clearly and emphasised the challenges of living with it. I always watch and appreciate the Misery Machine, but this episode really prompted me to say what an amazing job you do and how professionally and humanely you deal with these topics! Thankyou.
I’m actually surprised he lived as long as he did. His health going up and down puts a lot of physical strain on the body.
Imagine thinking parents who were okay watching 2 of their previous children DIE would be affected by the third child’s death
There needs to be something holding judges accountable. That judge ended this child.
As a type 1 diabetic, i appreciate your explanation of the disease and what Alex went through. Breaks my heart😢
It's a big deal! Our only experience with it was when our late kitty, Prada, had it for 14 months at the end of her life. That entailed twice a day insulin injections, diabetic supplies, curves, etc. - without insurance (she took Lantus, so we did get some discount through Good Rx). It floors me that these two, who received free healthcare, couldn't (or rather, wouldn't) help their child.
The social workers supervisor who said close the file, the judge and CAS who kept giving him back are just as guilty as the parents.
Exceptional explanation of Type 1 vs. Type 2 diabetes!
Absolutely. I think they are so different that it confuses people.
Agreed
As a type one diabetic myself (who was also treated at BC Children's as a kid) I can't tell you how refreshing it is to hear a clear and concise description of the difference between type one and type two diabetes. I'm type one myself and people always seem to get a detail or two wrong nowadays but you guys got it exactly right on. It's little things like that and the effort put into making things clear and understandable that's definitely gonna have me sticking around. Keep up the great work guys!
Someone needs to take the license of the judge who gave him back to those sick parents
it's crazy to me that they had rushed him to the ER before, was told about his diabetes, didn't see a doctor for however long or take insulin as needed, was rushed to the ER again because he was about to die, and the judge decided to put him back with his parents. the claim "they just saw they're child almost die, they'd be crazy to do it again" is ridiculous given that they were the ones who MADE their child almost die, and in the end, pass away in the worst way possible. the judge should be held accountable, as well as whatever child protective agencies that discovered the fled the state and didn't alert anyone. honestly disgusting that they took him away from his one chance at living a full, healthy, and happy life.
My God, I'm a type 1 diabetic and I cannot imagine putting anyone through what these parents did to their little boy. I've been in ketoacidosis before and almost died. How could they knowingly and deliberately do that to their child? That poor baby, the pain he went through must have been excruciating. 😢
This one made me cry. I’m a Type 1 Diabetic and I’ve been near death in DKA. It’s terribly painful. I have to take insulin all day, everyday. There’s no way around it. I honestly don’t know how he lived that many years. RIP Alex🩵
The fact that he did live as long as he did show that his parents DID know (basically) how to care for a T1 diabetic. They feigned inability to understand, and did it just enough to keep him alive - even though he was taken away and returned a few times. They got him too little insulin and too little food, and finally NO insulin.
This is WORSE than them not treating it at all. They kept him at the brink of death for years - and got him pulled from its brink each time. It was horribly painful for that boy.
OMG!! I can't believe what this child went through. My son was diagnosed 2001, when he was 2 years old. The pain my child was in nearly ripped my heart out after a misdiagnoses by two separate Doctors, two separate times at the same hospital. He was dying right in front of my eyes and no one would help him at first. My two year old son had severe ketone-acidosis with a BSL (blood sugar level) of 49.9. The pediatric specialist claimed it was much higher as that was the highest the machine would go. Within just three days, my child had lost a lot of muscle mass and couldn't lift his head. His breath smelled like fairy floss. He was so thirsty that he was drinking and weeing at the same time. One of the doctors that met me at the hospital doors was the Doctor that misdiagnosed him the first time I presented my son to the hospital days prior. He told me that I was an overattentive mother and my child had a virus. Gave him some fluids and sent us on our way. Only for us to present a third time in such a state that I yelled at him to get away from my child and wanted a real Doctor to treat him. Meanwhile, my sons' kidneys were starting to shut down and he was in a coma type state. My son was in hospital for 10 days. During that time we were trained and trained and trained. I wasn't allowed to take him home without this training. My sons' health is number one. . This poor poor child must of been in extreme agony. I am so sorry 😶🌫😶🌫🥺
How someone can go against literally everyone and everything and give an abused kid back to abusers is beyond me.
That judge should be charged, this is absolutely infuriating. So many people tired helping this kid and that was all taken away by 1 man.
I honestly can't comprehend how he didn't die long before he got to that condition. The poor boy wanted to live so bad, and his parents wouldn't let him 😢
I can't imagine doing that to a stranger, let alone my own child. He should never have been returned to his parents. The little boy got justice too late.
As a type 1 diabetic, you did a phenomenal job of summarizing it and the dangers of not providing insulin. While I can’t bring myself to listen to the whole thing bc of my shared connection with Alex, I am so thankful that you cover medical abuse cases like this. I’m filled with a searing rage for the parents and I wish them to rot in sheer agony
What a psycho , sadistic pos , to watch your child slowly die in such a painful way . People like this is why I believe in capital punishment. The judge and caseworkers who suggested to close the file should be held responsible too .
The Judge belongs behind bars.
So much evidence for sever child abuse to the point that i would call it torture and attempted murder which became acual murder.
that judged that awarded her custody should be held accountable for his death he was well taken care of in his foster home
At some point all the professionals that fail these children have to be held responsible 😡🤬🤬🤬
Alex was so incredibly strong to have survived for so long under conditions that are simply unsuitable for life. I hope he’s at peace now.
Wow, this is a tough one. To know that poor child suffered for all those years is absolutely heartbreaking. To make things worse, that judge got away with murder
Why didn't any of the "older" children say anything to anybody? I couldn't imagine seeing my family member slowly dying and not saying anything to anybody... especially my younger sibling. They knew it was wrong, they were adults... poor baby, 😢
Kids don’t remember stuff done at 3… when I’ve drawn like 7 year olds, I often ask if this is their first blood draw- the child always says “yes” and sometimes parents tell me they did have one as a toddler (even up to 4) and that they just don’t remember. I’ve never drawn a 5+ year old that’s even remembered being drawn (and this is very scary for kids most times, due to not knowing what to expect. Often I have 4-8 year olds leave yelling “THAT WASN’T SO BAD (shouting, they are rightfully proud of themselves)” and I retort with: you’re braver than you think! Never forget that! I think mom (or dad- whichever parent is with them) owes you something special for how well you did! I try to make it into a positive thing, because the kids that are screaming, have been scared by their parents and react based off of their reaction. I drew one kid, who was so proud when it was done, and the dad was like: “I don’t know how you are so good at this- I am scared of needles!” I answered: “I’m sure glad you didn’t lead with that (in a serious tone)
Unless they are drawn like weekly or monthly, then I totally give them my support and tell them it’s never fun to feel like a pin cushion, I really hope your doctors learn whatever they are looking for this time. (I can’t let on that I know why certain tests are ordered etc. or give results out except to an RN or doctor)
I was shaking through out this entire video, this poor boy was forced to live in the most agonising torture possible for his entire life...How could anyone do this to their own child...every single person that led to the horrific suffering that he went through. I have no more words for this.
this is pure evil.
You two do an incredible job presenting these horrific cases that need to be told but many just can't. The kids you tell us about live on forever now thru your careful and respectful telling of the horrors they endure. So many similar stories simply fade out after court cases close and time just tucks them away. Thank you for bringing them into the light to memorialize these babies and remind us all that monsters walk among us everyday.
Please make sure you're taking care of yourselves, the vicarious trauma that accompanies these cases is real and it can be a silent stalker chipping away at happiness slowly but consistently only to reveal itself down the road with serious negative consequences. Take care of yourselves and each other, take time away from these heavy heartbreaking cases, make sure you do just as much happy positive smile inducing activities as you do this heavy work.
I'm sure this isn't news to you, I'm a faithful channel supporter I know how bright you guys are, I just felt a strong need to remind you guys to protect yourselves and not take the secondary trauma lightly... ever. Please. 💜
Beautifully said.❤
We're going to be taking a bit of a recess from recording 3 cases a week. We're literally on vacation right now, and it was needed. Last week, we recorded an episode, and out of nowhere, I totally just snapped. We tried our best to edit it and cover me with b-roll, but it's still going to be pretty obvious that I was sobbing. We have some real sickos in here that insist that we love what we're doing and do it for kicks, but that couldn't be further from the truth. We do it because we feel like we have a duty to. This happens too much to little ones. We do this because there are so many people out there (including me) who can't have kids, while literal monsters are popping them out. Much love to you ♡
@@TheMiseryMachineGodbless you guys. And may his hedge of protection around you guys stay forever strong.
@@TheMiseryMachine the very idea that you do this "for kicks" is so obviously false.
What a bunch of hooey.
My daughter is 37 lbs at almost 3 years old. I can't imagine a 15 year old boy weighing so little.
I will never understand how cruel people can be, especially to helpless children.
I havent finished the video but i hope these disgusting parents got the harshest punishment possible.. even that, they deserve worse
The sheer number of times that Alex was failed by the state is heartbreaking.
I've been through diabetic ketoacidosis 3 times since my diagnosis last year because first I was misdiagnosed as type 2 and then because I'm very sensitive to insulin and it is hard to treat it correctly. I keep losing weight and feel awful. This poor baby suffered tremendously! And there is NO WAY they didn't know how much he was hurting. Just your breathing alone shows it.
Being untreated is so horrible that I tell my doomsday prepper family friend that there is no point in asking if I'm ready anymore, the SECOND I find out insulin is no longer available, I'm killing myself. It is a slow, terrifying and painful death.
God I cannot help but cry for this innocent soul. He could have had a full life! 😩💔
How could a parent possibly treat their own child like that? I will never understand cruel and neglectful people
Love yall! Hope you take care of your mental health, this stuff is heavy.
For real though. I honestly can't wrap my head around this horror
Parents like this wouldn't think twice about taking medication for themselves if they were dying.
That was so tragic, sad and downright criminal. That poor, innocent boy, my heart breaks for him too.
Thanks again TMM for bringing these stories to our attention. Your vid’s are done with such sensitivity, compassion and thoughtfulness. Sometimes I think it much be taxing emotionally to keep covering these topics, but I know that you know that you’re doing it to shed light on this topic, to give the voiceless a new voice and hopefully help to stop these from happening again and again.
How do you both cope with such tragic and traumatic topics all the time? I’d love to know how you cope. I think I could learn even more from you, if I knew this too. But I know it’s a very personal side to this and frankly none of my business, but just as long as you’re both getting the support, the outlets and any assistance you may need…
Take care, be well and be happy, inside and out.
We love you lots!! xxoo
I’m a type 1 diabetic and have gone through diabetic ketone acidosis many, many times. I’ve been hospitalized for it close to 20 times. I cannot even begin to think about how painful this must have been. This is my worst fear ( to die this way). This is a cruel and torturous death.
Can I ask why? I'm a type 1 as well. I've had it for over 10 years but I've never been hospitalized for ketoacidosis. I'm asking out of concern and not judgement. You shouldn't be having this problem. ❤
I fought my emotions the whole video, but the last sentence got me. Now I have to go hug my children and pets. God bless and keep his siblings and Grandma Vera's family.
I’m dumbfounded. How could these people give this child back to the parents. I cannot even understand this… the boy almost died so many times
There's no words. 😢
😶💔
I can't even imagine the amount of suffering that was this child's life 😭
Everyone involved should be charged with some type of neglect. The system and the parents failed this poor baby. I’m so sorry you had to endure such horrible circumstances. You are now at peace lil angel. Fly high with the other angels 👼 in heaven. 🪦
That judge needs to be struck off! Not just the awful parents fault, there is no way he should have been sent back to the "parents". Didn't like calling them parents, but couldn't think of an appropriate word to describe them. Poor Alex, no one should be treated that way, I wouldn't even treat an animal like that.
