Poor baby:(

Filthy rat bastards...

It's the parents fault.

They should take better care of a baby. Like putting her in a crib.

Eugh...

That is sick and not the good sick.

How could parents let that happen?

Wow. There was a guy from another website forum who kept an exotic giant centipede. He said that they had to get rid of itafter it broke out at night, crawled into their babies crib, and chewed off 2 of the babies fingers completely off.Until they heard him crying.

hmm.. this is something that's always concerned me about human thinking...

why do we get so angry at other animals for trying to survive? I understand we shouldn't let them feed off of us.. but we shouldnt run out and kill 2 billion rats just because one deceided to eat a babies toes..

There are many animal cullings around the world simply because we're afraid of them.. and all that animal did was do what was in its nature.. I guess it's human nature to destroy anything that may harm us, even if they only effect us on a tiny scale.

Hope the baby didn't get any disease from it.

With the exception of a couple posts, I don't see anywhere that said they were going after the rats. It's the parents who are in custody from what I understand.

No it's not

The parents left that thing on the floor so it could be eaten

Kind of ridiculous if they get charged for that. I doubt they just watched the rat eating away. What's next? Suing parents because their child fell on the playground and broke a bone?guynamedbilly

They should be charged for that. How can you neglect your baby and let that happen? You can't even compare what happened here and your child falling on the playground.

Wha?

OK, here's the scenario that plays out

If your baby has it's body parts gnawed off by rats

YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG

Do not pass go, do not collect 100 dollars, you lose the baby and you go to baby gnawing jail

wow i cant even imagine how that would feel...just sitting there while rats bite my toes away...slowly:cry:

Idiots. This is why people need to be regulated on wether or not they can have children.

How does one not notice rats chewing on their child/the child screaming in pain/the blood right away?XilePrincess

You can't be serious. Have you even raised a baby before?

I have on more than one occasion. In fact, we have had 15 children come through our home (some babies, some older).

1. The article said rats, as in more than one.

2. If the rats were pets (I doubt it but let's say they were as you suggested), then how did the rats get that close to the baby? The parents did not take proper safety precautions then.

3. You should know everything that is happening with your baby 24/7 (even when your sleeping). We had devices placed in our baby's room and speakers in our room. I guarantee you, if the baby as much as breathed, we heard him/her. Any thing moving in the room, we knew about it. As a parent, you better know what's happening 24/7 with your baby. That is the job of the parent.

4. To let rats chew off your baby's toes is inexcusable.

5. The baby is not going to have mental problems because you did your job as a parent. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard.

Yeah, it's not the animals fault. They are primitive and act on instinct. The parents should have taken better care of their daughter.

If you're walking around in the woods, and a bear mauls you after you piss it off, should people blame the bear? No, they will, but they shouldn't. It was your own stupidity that led to the attack. The same goes for the parents, it was their neglect that led to this.

He's lying. Centipedes don't do that.

Ok, what exactly were the parents doing while the baby was crying for dear life?

Ah rats.

I actually started laughing when I read your posts. Please never procreate. The more contact with a baby and young child you have, the more intelligent they grow up to be, because, as they say "the first six years are critical" for all their development and learning. When a child is SCREAMING in pain, there is something wrong. Any intelligent human would go to the baby and see what the problem is. Yes, there's self soothing, but that's five minutes maybe. If the kid screams for hours because its having its toes chewed off, you should probably go look. You can't prevent a rat getting into your house, but you can go see your infant when they're screaming bloody murder.

As a parent, you better know what's happening 24/7 with your baby. That is the job of the parent.

Fine, show me in the article where the child was screaming in pain please. In fact, show me anything in the article about the state the baby was found in.guynamedbilly

The job of the parent is to raise the child, knowing everything about it 24/7 does not correlate with raising the child.guynamedbilly

Please, do find some rodents with sharp teeth and let them have a go at your toes. Let's see if you stay anywhere near quiet when they're crunching through YOUR feet.

How can you say the parents should not be blamed? Rats chewed off the baby's toes!! How can this not be the parents fault?

I agree letting rats chew off your baby's toes or even be around a child is inexcusable. The article doesn't elaborate on how they found out about the rats, if the parents did indeed allow it to happen, if the baby screamed or anything. I'm just suggesting based on the limited information the article had, the parents shouldn't be crucified.

I know exactly what you said. Now read my post again. You can disagree all you want to.

Hmm.

I feel sorry for him.

poor baby :(
