The Slice: Sighing & Praying

So what do you do after reading in the morning paper about a father throwing his young son into some cacti and driving off , abandoning the little boy? Me, I tried hard to think about something I saw last night. The preschool boy across the street was running around with a towel draped from his shoulders. Clearly it was intended to serve as a cape. He also had on some sort of headgear that I can only assume is much like what the superheroes are wearing these days. He and his dad tossed a ball back and forth. Well, at least they were trying to do that. The little boy is just learning about throwing. And catching will come a bit later. But the dad could not have been more patient/ Paul Turner , The Slice.

Question: How do you react when you read stories of extreme child abuse like the one in Texas?
