The youngest was found in a heavily soiled nappy. The other three were all dirty, and hardly clothed. Two of the children needed emergency dental work, and one had to have all her teeth removed.

Heroin in some cases. I game alot, but dont have a dependants to worry about. Its so sad that the parents neglected their kids like this...
Does nappy = diaper in the queens english?
Yes, nappy = diaper
And they should do what we do...find a multi-player game and play with their kids!! :rofl:
Something tells me that a love of gaming isn't the only thing wrong with the household . . .
gotta agree, hesperus.
no amount of gaming results in complete removal of all of your child's teeth.
someone must have been working to pay the ISP bill. thats about all they paid for. how sad.
Internet gaming can be as addictive as gambling, I guess. The excitement of the game drives up adrenaline levels and people get addicted to that. Some people start parasailing, stunt-driving or other extreme sports for the adrenaline shots. Computer junkies just grow attacked to the Internet.
Hmmm?
Can anyone explain how you can be "addicted to online gaming" AND have 4 children?Quote:
Two young parents who were addicted to internet gaming have been jailed for three months after they admitted neglecting their four small children.
:)
Maybe one time when they came up for air from baby-making, they discovered the internet!
Its more likely than being addicted to online porn and having kids, and how many people do you know who do that :p.Quote:

that's just sad. but i can see it happening. My sister is "Hooked" on Everquest. she plays it all the damed time. the only time she ever comes out of her room is when her daughter Eve is throwing a fit,needs changed,or is hungry.Other then that she completly ignores her daughter.Not once have i ever seen her play with Eve.
Report her to the authoritiesQuote:

you have a duty to the child
she will grow up KNOWING that you did NOTHING
sometimes kids are better off with dead parents, at least that way they can't keep coming back and screwing them over again and again ........
The couple deserved what they got. There is a time and place for computer gaming, and it's bloody well NEVER when your kids need attention (99 percent of their waking hours). Turn OFF the box, pick up the kid.
Ya those parents had a responsibility to all those kids and they negected it so they got what they deserved. A computer game while it is fun, isnt as important as your kids
Ouch. That was harsh.Quote:
