Mommy scariest.

Last night me and family watched the news of this 40 year old woman from kerala who drowned her little 8 month old baby boy in the washing machine . As my dad watches in silent horror , my mother just shakes her head in disbelief . By the look on her face,i can see she's trying , as am i , to imagine what on earth could make a mother , the one whose love is considered to be absolute , unmoved and unrestrained by anything , forget all her instincts and harm her own offspring .Its's just the most unnatural isn't it ...
The killer mom (she walked into the police station and confessed) has another child , a girl .She sent the girl away , and with her husband at work , she finally carried out this heinous act. It is said that she has had psychiatric troubles and even attempted to take her life few months ago .She has been undergoing therapy .
A while back , a woman in South Carolina , took the life of her two toddlers , aged 1 and 2 by suffocating them in her car , and later pushing the vehicle into a river .
There have been quite a few cases in the past couple of months and really makes you wonder what's going on in the world today ?

A thread of commonality running through most of these stories was that the victims were children less than the age of 2 .With kids so young, it wasn't very long back that these women had become mothers, or mothers again .So what power does this force contain that turns a mother against her child ?
What state of mental health , what degree of confusion ,anger ,depression ?  It brings to light the fact that today Postpartum Depression and Psychosis are a huge reality.It's a dangerous period that women recently out of their pregnancy are extrememly prone to which all expecting mothers should be aware of and in turn doctors need to help them address this through discussions and advice .  http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0CYD/is_9_37/ai_85591467/
 If not addressed ,in worst case scenarios, it can lead women , such as Suma ,the givers of life ,to become murderers; from saints ,to sinners..
