Today, forensics and police have returned to the house in Logan where 11 lives were taken to continue the investigation for cause of the fire. Police say the fire appears to be started from a office downstairs and quickly engulfed the 2-story house. They also say the complexity of the fire makes it difficult to investigate, but they disagreed that the fire may have been deliberately lit. Meanwhile, at Logan City there's a festival being held but the event manager wanted to call it off since the secretary of the festival, Treicee Taufa, lost her daughter, Ardelle, in the fire. However Treicee insisted that the event has to be continued. Stay strong, even though it's heartbreaking to lose their families in the fire, the community will give their continued support to this family no matter what circumstances.
Toddler died with unknown injuries [news.com.au]
A quite unsettling story has happened on weekend last week in Newcastle where a 2-year-old toddler was found injured and quickly later she was rushed into hospital but died a short time after. After the girl's death, the parents of the child were being questioned but police have yet to charged anyone. Police are now investigating the reason behind the injuries while the toddler's uncle has called the Department of Community Services over fears for the girl's safety before the incident, however he was told to 'mind their own business' which really upsets me about their conducts of treating their calls. I found it quite mind-boggling that what's actually happened behind this injuries even though their parents seemed to have nothing to do about it. The investigation continues.
Parents give up on parenting as the law forbids them to smack their children [Courier Mail]
As I have written before in my blog where I do believe smacking in some occasion is appropriate to discipline children who refused to be nice and good, since they don't like the 'soft' way of negotiating with parents so a more 'hard' and radical measure has to be done. However, some parents though, they basically are helpless without smacking, and little did they know about basics of parenting. Since the law have passed that smacking your kid is equal to assault, they have stopped their disciplining and parenting altogether, letting their children to push beyond the boundary. That's no good for a child's development since they have the full right on doing what they want without consequences. I believe parents have to be considerate and understand their importance on the kid's upbringing, and to understand how they teach the children is also very crucial as well. Simply let them to roam without limit basically creates another social problem in the society.
