Among the many, many things I notice with horror reading this story:
This mother has the legal system riding her back because she left a baby in the car while she went into a vape shop — which was definitely not an awesome thing to do, but the legal system caused •orders of magnitude• more harm to that same baby with what it put the mom through trying to punish her.
Like…what was the point? [←RHETORICAL QUESTION that does NOT need to be answered in the replies; I know you know]
