A baby is for life, not just for Christmas.
I'm not being flippant with that remark. I don't know how true it is, but in today's Sunday Times, it said this poor child's teenage parents had been staying with friends across the street for four days, leaving the child in the care of it's grandparents, and young teenage aunts.
All dogs can be dangerous, but even more dangerous is leaving your child without the proper care it deserves. While you play commuter games, get drunk, or even eat paella in a nearby, but out of sight and earshot, tapas bar.
It's very sad.
