Worst Parenting

[scottish]

What's the worst parenting you've ever witnessed?

Whether it's your parents or you've witnessed it somewhere else.

way too much lmao but one of the worst ones for me was when my nephew had to reach behind the chair for an old banana because his alcoholic mother slept all day and didn't feed him. it broke my heart good thing he stays with us the majority of the time. plus the fact she only really cares about him imo for the child benefit for her alcoholism.

I'm not sure, I haven't really personally witnessed anything. But I read on the news about the woman that kept her child locked in a really small cage, being impossible to move or stand up. It only had a dish for food and water I think . Awful!

Might've been this or another http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...s-another.html -- I'm not sure

I haven't really seen any bad parenting that I can recall.

I think excessive swearing & smoking etc when around young children is something that I'd class as bad parenting as you shouldn't be bringing up your kid in that kind of environment. But that's just my opinion and I guess it's a way of life for some people.
