The Morning Dump: Parent of the Year awards

Since the college hoops season is back in action, we feel as though The Morning Dump should start to concentrate less on humorous and ridiculous stories and videos, and more about the goings on in the world of college basketball. That being said, If we found out that a man had launched his young son into orbit in a homemade balloon, we will keep you informed.

We here at B.I.A.H have used to Morning Dump as a way to pass on somewhat useful/humorous information to help you stay updated with the rest of the world. Over the last few months, we have made it an issue to seek out articles about parents who showed questionable-to-down-right-miserable parenting skills. It has been our goal to exploit these people in order to make the public aware that there are a lot of people in the world that should have never been allowed to reproduce.

So without further ado, here are your candidates for The Morning Dump: Parents of the Year award.

Candidate #1 - I completely understand that 21-year old-single mothers with three toddlers can make mistakes. But the mistakes that our first candidate are just plain bonkers. This lady not only left her children at home for 48 hours with literally no food, but then, upon returning, found one of the them dead and actually thought it was socially acceptable to dispose of her dead baby by throwing it in the trash. Disgusting, despicable, and downright unacceptable. This lady definitely deserves consideration.

Candidate #2 - If you have played competitive sports at any point in you life, then you have seen one of these guys. The stereotypical obsessive, overbearing parent. Our candidate wasn't mad at his son for being kicked of the JV soccer team. Rather, he was frustrated with the team's coaches, and decided to take out his aggression towards them on his own kin. Now that my friends, is some hardcore father-son bonding.

Candidate #3 - This is actually a two-in-one. But I don't know how sarcastic or funny I can be for this one. This is just another sickening case that shows why certain people should never ever breed.

Candidate #4 - What this lady did takes some serious balls. She basically gave all the pedophiles in her county the information to one of her 9-year old daughter's classmates because the two girls got into a fight at school. Aren't parents the ones suppose to be protecting kids from pedophiles?

Candidate #5 - A father who tries to seduce and lure his own daughter via facebook. Wow, that's pretty screwed up. Nothing more really needs to be said about this one.

Candidate #6 - I don't even know where to begin. This guy is a bad drug dealer AND a bad parent. I have so many questions I want to ask this man, but hopefully he will be in jail and I won't be able to talk to him about what the hell he was thinking.

Candidate #7 - This happy couple thought that it was OK to keep one of their children locked in a closet for nearly four years. They did regularly let him out, but mostly just to burn him and administer the occasional beating.

Candidate #8 - This candidate's daughter stole some things from the near-by Walmart, and our father here felt it was his fatherly duty to punish her for her bad behavior. That's acceptable. But this guy decided it would be OK to punish his daughter by shaving her head bald. That's not acceptable. Oh ya, he also beat her with a belt for playing a game-boy when she wasn't suppose to.

So there you have it. The nominees for The Morning Dump's Parent of the Year award. There won't actually be any winner chosen, as acts this vile and despicable do not actually deserve an award.

A baseball bat to the back of the head?

I can get on board with that.
