Murdered by mother
I am appalled going through the two news items--- children killed by their mothers. Situations in the two cases are different but the common phenomenon remains the same. Children were killed by their mothers. In the triple suicide case, the mother not only induced her children to commit suicide, rather supplied them with deadly poison. Her monstrous husband and in-laws have committed a heinous crime. But does it allow a mother to annihilate her children? In our society she was not the first woman abandoned by the husband. Many such poor mothers reared their children with utmost care and established them in life.
The other case is so shameful that I hate to discuss it in detail. Our social leaders, thinkers and researchers should go deep into the mindset of mothers who for carnal pleasure can kill their son. When mothers turn killers, where will our children take refuge in times of crisis?
