    Nev. couple blame Internet for neglect

    RENO, Nev. - A couple who authorities say were so obsessed with the Internet and video games that they left their babies starving and suffering other health problems have pleaded guilty to child neglect. See the story here

      This is totally insane...I think there is something mentally wrong with anyone capable of such an act..and to blame it on video games..gimme a break!...they are abusers plain and simple..

          I dont understand, how do you ignore a screaming child. Even if you wanted to the hunger cries should drive you to feed them. They should be locked a room with their games and no heat, ac or food. Let them die that way.

                  totally agree..maybe they should starve..the article doesnt mention the parents being in ill health or emaciated....so apparently they had time to feed themselves with all the gaming going on.

                      That is disgusting. There are people who want children and can't have them because of infertility problems, and here these pigs were blessed with kids that they refuse to take care of because they are disgusting pigs. How sad.

                              I guess you could use "swine" instead!

                              Either way, they don't deserve to have kids and should have their internet and games taken away along with the kids.
