Summary: Grandparents of a young girl kept her locked in their apartment
bathroom. She was only allowed out of the bathroom to attend school or for
special occasions, such as a visit from a family member. They kept her in
horrible conditions and only provided a blanket for the poor child. This horrible
practice lasted six long years. When psychologist examined her, they
evaluated her to be normal. This older couple had various felonies charged
against them.
Reflection: It is shocking to
think that grandparents are capable of mistreating their grandchildren. To think
that an innocent little girl has been trapped in a bathroom for six years is
devastating. Thinking of the living conditions she was in is sad. The only
thing I could think of is that in those six years this child should have been enjoying
her childhood instead of being locked in a filthy bathroom. No one can give her
back those six years and she has to live with the memory of that traumatizing
experience. This man and women deserve to be punished. It is definitely not
right to treat their grandchild inhumanely.
