The punishment costed the little girl's life

Parents, if you are going to punish your children, do it wisely, not savagely. This news saddens me, and if you are a parent, it should make you sad as well:

Authorities say 9-year-old Savannah Hardin died after being forced to run for three hours as punishment for having lied to her grandmother about eating candy bars. Severely dehydrated, the girl had a seizure and died days later. Now, her grandmother and stepmother who police say meted out the punishment were taken to jail Wednesday and face murder charges.

Read the rest of the entry. Really depressing. Let's pray for those who are truly affected by this tragedy.
