Put an end to irresponsible parents

by Celine Chahine

She looked as if she were dead.
All baffled eyes were on her horrific state, her shaking body that was lying limply on the cold dirty leaves in between the trees. 10 year old Daniel Chahine held a party at his house and was playing ghost in the graveyard with all of his friends, when all of a sudden a faint, cracking voice was heard saying, “Connor, Kyle, come home now..”
“I was so scared when I saw that all of my friends were next to me and that I didn’t know who was out there. It was too dark for me to see her and what was going on, but from her voice I could tell that something was wrong,” said Daniel.
“I had no idea what to do, it could have been someone dangerous, and so I didn’t want the kids to go back outside. My daughter ended up convincing me that we should go help her or at least check on her because she was just laying there on the ground, moaning.” said Rita.
Apparently, a neighbor was heavily intoxicated and clearly needed help. So Rita and her daughter grabbed their requested neighbor, who, at the time, was holding on to the victims children, and they called the ambulance witch took the intoxicated mother to the hospital.
“It was awful, she couldn’t sit or stand, she just kept shaking. She looked pretty bad too, she had a huge bump on her forehead and scratches and bruises all over her face and body…I felt terrible for her little children, they were hysterically crying when they saw there mother. I couldn’t believe that a mother would ever do something like that.” said Rita.
Turned out that the lady was drunk and overdosed on her pills. She had given her neighbors her children the night of the incident.
The father praised the efforts of the Chahine family, “thank you so much for saving my wife’s life. The doctors said that if she hadn’t gone to the hospital, she would have been dead within an hour. ” said the victims husband.
It is unbelievably shocking how irresponsible parents can be. Clearly, it is wrong for a parent to pass her children off to someone so that they could get intoxicated. This kind of behavior sets a bad example; children need good role models in order to grow up and become good and mature adults. If parents didn’t make it a habit of drinking or taking drugs, then they wouldn’t be hypocrites by telling their children not to do things like that.
The solution to getting rid of irresponsible parents is to take away their parenting rights. This can be done by a requirement to a government review. Basically, the government will designate someone to go review the states and functions of families. Anyone who fails this review will be further reviewed. If living conditions seem unbearable or unjust to the children, then they will be taken away from their irresponsible parents.
