  3. I am really at a loss as to what to say. If I say her own children? would it make it better if they were other people's? *sigh* Whatever be the case, I just pray that she sold those kids to people who are well-adjusted enough to show them a better life and not ritualists.

    Nothing is even being said about recovery of the kids.

  5. Women struggle in life to keep their children. She must be a very wicked woman for selling her own kids.
