Apparent Mistakes

September 20, 2009

Recently, two stories hit the news back-to-back about mothers who endangered their children with the use of alcohol or drugs.  In Coatsville, PA, police pulled over a Dodge Durango with a woman in the passenger seat and a 6-year old at the wheel.  The mother, Lakisha Hogue, was high on marijuana and told officers she was “teaching her daughter to drive”.  In Ferndale, MI, Dena Ellington, was driving her 9-year old son to school with a .29 blood alcohol level – nearly four times the legal limit.  She was so impaired that she drove him to the wrong school and had to ask a police officer for directions to the correct school.  She was arrested and driven to jail while police took her son to school. 


Two incidents showed women that were errant
Proof that mothering skills are not inherent
They did many things wrong
With their children along
Please, someone help them become a better parent!
