I understand the rush to judgment, because how could any parent forget their own child that they never dropped off at daycare?
But then I think about, say, the ADHD entry that Meg wrote, and I think about ADHD hyperfocus and time-blindness, and how things can just "disappear" when your mind is on something else. And then I think of being that mother, and having such an awful thing happen. I wonder that she hasn't committed suicide, because I don't know how a person could want to go on after that.
