Thats so sad about Ellis, babies cry for a reason, be it that they are hungry, wet, full of wind, and need burping or just over tired.
Here in our local town when you have a baby in the local hospital, the hospital provides free of charge a post natal mother care nurse to come around to your house to help out with houshold chores, everyday for the first two weeks of comming out of hospital, it gives the mother and family a chance to settle in with her new baby.

I don't know what this world's coming to, with all the small defenseless babies and children being abused by their parents and caretakers, instead of being protected by those in charge of their wellbeing. I wouldn't shake my dog or cat, definitely not a baby.

Yes, all very sad. Though the video is aimed at the tired, exhausted parent, at the end of their tether, who might succumb to a moment of madness, under a barrage of relentless crying; rather than a sadistic child abuser.
That's what happened to the little lad in the chair, poor soul. A brief loss of temper and ....

In my nursing work when I did pediatrics I had several shaken baby patients. They were ruined for life. Their abusers went to jail. Spend some time affiliated with a childrens hospital and you will see it all. Abuse abounds and the medical profession has to deal with it all the time. Hosptials (with court order) will even install cameras in the patient rooms to document parental abuse when suspected. I think many many more people are abused that we understand about.
