Cooking with your baby
Yep you read right. This post is about cooking with your baby.
I was furious today after hearing about a 19-year old father who put his two month old baby girl in the microwave. Initially, I thought I heard wrong. But it turned out to be true. In Texas, one very young father just happened to microwave his kid for 20 seconds. Why? Apparently he could not handle the demands of caring for such a young child. The kid sustained third degree burns and if you have a two month old - you would probably be able to imagine what that would look like on very delicate skin.
The guy faced 99 years of prison time. I say that is a blessing. The best thing was to microwave him for ten times the time he used on his kid. What kind of sick mind did this dude have? His own kid! Tsk tsk.

Geez! Must be on drugs. I’m with you in baking him alive.
Ohmigosh. I could not believe it, even after I read the news article. Unreal and terribly sad.
@auee
- Its easy to believe he must be high or deranged to have done such a thing. Wouldnt it be scary if he was none of the above?
@Jenn B.
- It is sad.
OMG! what was he thinking???
since microwave cooks from inside out, it is possible that the baby must have suffered inside burns, 20 seconds is long,
@Jo
- That was what we thought. We can only hope he wasnt of sound mind.

Poor poor baby.
- Yep. I have experience with my fingers being slightly burned by not being careful when I touch containers I have just heated.
