He hasn't seen his genitals since he was 7.
Guess mommy likes the drugs he brings in.

The child reached that magic age where it was old enough to know it wanted out and away from them.

At first glance I thought that was a mask pulled down around his chin.

His eyes are really red and probably not from crying over the dead kid.

So looking at these two, I would guess they are not nominees for best parents ever nor the best gene pool recipient award. Probably take the same exit as this kid if I was in similar situations
