In ‘Leuven’ the public prosecutor demanded 5 years imprisonment for the nursery that tortured a baby so long that he is disabled for the rest of his life.
The case against the nursery E.A. (24) started with a lot of interest. The woman is committed to trial for the molestation of Emmanuel Tuts and Lila S. (both 18 months old) in her childcare in Kessel-Lo in 2009.
The judge wanted to know why the defendant didn’t anything when she noticed that Emmanuel Tuts got convulsions, probably because she tortured him. She answered that she didn’t do anything because the parents of Emmanuel called her.
The psychiatric investigations showed that the young lady wasn’t able to have a childcare. She also said that in her education she never handled baby’s who cried a lot. She didn’t know how to comfort the baby.
The 4 months old baby showed after the molestation indications of the ‘babyshakensyndrome’ and the nursery did her confessions.
The now one and a half year boy is blind. He will probably never walk and he is fed with a drip. The child is disabled for 80%. It is already the fourth nursery that is summoned because of molestation of a child.
I think this case is really scandalous. Many people bring their children to a child care and they trust the nursery that she take care for the kids. The mother of Emmanuel didn’t get pregnant easily, suddenly she was pregnant of a healthy baby and then this happens… I think that is really the worst nightmare you could go through. The kid needs a lot of help for the rest of his life. I think that I would never accept that this could happen.

I can't understand why someone would torture babies and certainly not when you work in a childcare. You are supposed to take care of the children. It often happens that such news appears in the media. Trust is important in this sector, because everybody wants the best for their child. But with all this cruel news parents will doubt the quality of the childcares.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI agree with Camille when she says that this case is scandalous. My mother also has a child care so I am aware of the fact that it's sometimes hard to stay calm when the babies are crying very much but it can't be a reason to torture a baby. I feel sorry for the parents and I hope that the nursery will receive the 5 years punishment. I also hope that this news won't damage the image of the nursery sector, beause some people might be thinking that it's not safe to bring your children to a child care.
