Tony is safe and families are lining up to adopt him.

My heart is broken. How can ppl be so desperate as to abandon that child? It wounds me that humans have lost all humanity. Yet hope prevails
camelsp1der
He and his little dog ran after the car. They ran after the car.

gingersnaps20013
OMG what’s wrong with people!!!! Poor wee soul. I hope he goes on to have the best life and gets to keep his doggo too
Rabidbacon
The trauma that child have of watching his parents drive away from him in a cemetery. Heartbreaking, the outreach is amazing though.
DreadPierateRoberts
The tramya of digging out of the grave
therealpyroman
His mom. Dad wasn't in the picture and found out about this via social media.

Glad he will be safe now. I hope they keep the dog with him too. The fact that the dog didn't leave him means they need to stay together.
FuckGlitter
It means they abandoned him like a dog i think. Not that there was a dog.
SinGirl75
Nope. The full article states boy and dog.
FuckGlitter
I saw that near the end after rereading, its not worded super well. But he was kind of abandoned like a dog
FelineFatal
I want to know what happened to the dog!?!?!
tidepool
Dad went back to help the police catch him the next day. It was mom who ditched the kid.
underSopchoppy
Where's the doggo?
MrAlien
abandoned
GrenadeIn
Exactly!
killlface
If I remember correctly they went back the next day and were able to catch him.
lisalisaandthecultjam
I cannot imagine doing this to a child. ?
Iwillalwaysdownvoteyourchildren
Ahhh a child post I can upvote
PrairieDawnDoll
My instant thought was that I want him. Im glad so many people are attempting to bring him home
SweetMystique
Seriously, if you've concluded you cant cant care for your Children theres better options than leaving him in a fucking cemetery.
fortlotus
I hope that all of these people lining up to adopt him are prepared to help him through the trauma of abandonment and anything else that 1/2
fortlotus
2/2 may nave happened. He will act out. He will be angry. Not just because of his age but because of trauma. I hope his new family can help.

This is going to become more common as the ongoing wealth accretion of our economic system continues to be geared for only the already rich.

As horrible as this image is, I know from my own childhood there are parents that see their children as a source of income from perverts :(
BC2k2
And there wasn't even a pandemic or recession going on, just my mom dealing with her addiction. Just the thought of some poor kids becoming
BC2k2
victims because mom and dad need the money upsets me.
SheTurnedMeIntoANewtButIGotBetter
I'm so sorry you had to go through something like that. I sincerely hope you are in a better place now. Best wishes for 2021.

As if abandoning a child isn't bad enough..in a cemetery? Before christmas? AND THE DOG TOO??!!!!
ididntgetthejobatfruitloops
I've the effects of this, 40 years on, in group therapy...
GnomeDeGuerre
What was the the biggest consequences in your life?
gerhardpascher
Hopefully the new family will also accept the dog, because there should exist good relations between the boy and the pet.

Hope the mom gets her ass kicked in prison.
Snoopy101x
I have a beautiful 3yo boy and I could never imagine abandoning him. I don't want to judge but how could anyone do that to a smile like that
GravitySmellsLikeCheese
Grammar and punctuation were also abandoned that day.
Megaultraman
Not really, that's just how all new sources write headlines. They use a comma instead of and

The boy's Mother pushed him out of her car and sped off. She had custody. The father found out from a picture on news. It was the Mother.

Is the father able to take him?

Megaultraman
Have you ever read a newspaper? They use a comma instead of "and" as well as condensed grammar
ryzynforce
Who the hell does this shit?! Are you kidding me? WHY? Under the jail with those sub humans.
tidepool
Pretty sure it’s a petty custody dispute situation since the mom did it and the dad was quick to retrieve him.
EnderPanda13
Mom needs to face jail time and lose all custody rights, mught even have something mental going on
ryzynforce
I care not the reason. The kid had no say in being born. Put him up for adoption if that is the case
Kingsdotter
I'm going to guess that poverty and underfunded education is involved in the poor decision making.
ryzynforce
It is inexcusable. No. Poverty, and education shouldn't be used to excuse this nonsense.
Kingsdotter
You may not like the explanation, but don't pretend its an excuse. People might think you suffer from poor education as well.
ryzynforce
You can have poor education and not be a trash bag. If someone wants to think I have no education, fine. I do not abandon children like that
Kingsdotter
You are just making an excuse for yourself so you don't have to try and understand how things like this can happen.

"Three year old Ohio Boy, dog abandoned" whaaa?

And mom wonders why I don't date... we live in that state.
Geodreamer
Dog-boy abandoned in cemetery.
iamnotabunnywhydoyouask
It'd be an insult to dogs to say he was raised by dogs (boy-dog) but that's what first came to mind when I read boy, dog and thought boy-dog

RideTheStimutacs
You haven't heard of the Ohio Boy Dog?
Eldibar
Note to the writer of that headline, English better please.
FrogDelay
That's traditional sentence structure for american journalism
paulus1978
Really? The convention would be to use & for two things and "," to conjoin the first two or more of multiple things, with & at the end item.
FrogDelay
I’m no journalist so you’re probably right. I see it all the time and just figured it was condensed grammar. Didnt know there were rules lol
paulus1978
The way I read the title, it's almost like the writer sketched out a header in note form and forgot to go back and edit it before publishing

Where's the dog??

The boy had to eat

Update! I read another article that they were able to catch the dog. Also, mom dropped kid off. Bio dad didn't know anything. He saw his kid

On the news and contacted authorities.

not only did the scum abandon a dog but their kid as well
wiseidiot9
A good man will kill you without a word.
SenatorPanda
I am trying to understand why someone would do this... not enough money to support them? Or was it something more personal?
Taugay
Maybe they did the "bring the dog for a walk" and left
Cotcan
Probably something along the lines of they didn't want to deal with raising the kid anymore.
Chewiedawookie
A boy and his dog were abandoned by the boys parents.
AnomolousHippopotomus
I heard of treating your pets like family but this is outrageous!
Mustang992
Mother, the parents are separated and he was in her custody. His dad is cooperating.
franklydizzy
Where does it say that? The article said both parents are been looked at.
Mustang992
It's in other articles, the one posted doesn't mention it
Gawdtura
Incase other ppl get down here and want a source https://www.foxnews.com/us/ohio-boy-dog-abandoned-cemetery-christmas-community-sends-gifts
igobeder
If anyone is thinking of doing this, at least drop them at a fire station, no questions asked. And by the way, fuck whoever did this.
jesusfaqjustacceptthisalready
Can you drop off teenagers?
ChonkyChungus69
The kid will be raised properly learning practical jokes, rolling hose, and fire propagation. It can then choose: hose jockey or step man
feliscorvus
Is that because a fire station is always staffed so there will always be someone there to find the child? God this makes me sad. Poor kid.
MissAizea
The age limit is 2 in most states; when they first enacted the law; ppl were dropping off 8+ y/os
ChonkyChungus69
That's really fucking sad, but in the end it might be better for the child.
MissAizea
People struggle to care for special needs kids, emotionally & financially. There's also not enough foster homes for kids in general
ChonkyChungus69
One of my good friends has a special needs child, and I know it's been rough on her, with all the appointments and insurance issues and such
LoopStricken
I wonder if I could just take myself to a fire station...
EviLPaRaDiSe
That's only true here for newborn babies
IdiotSavantTinker
There was a state that fucked that up and had parents dropping off their teenagers. Nevada?
igobeder
That may be true in a lot of places, but leave a child where you're assured someone will find them.
EviLPaRaDiSe
I agree. I'm just stating in Michigan, even if it's a fire or police station, you still get neglect charges if it's not an infant.
mezzz
Yup, of you leave a older kid at a fire station they feed them to the dalmatians....
EviLPaRaDiSe
I never knew! I want a dalmatian. Not to eat my kids though.
ChocolateCookieAndFudge
As the mom of a 3 year old, I'm tempted at least once a day to sell her on Ebay or throw her through the window or something.
IHateCakeDays
eBay? Shouldn’t you sell her at etsy?
icomeheretobedistracted
Lady, windows are expensive!
AsiagoTheSuperVillain
Please continue to resist the temptation!
igobeder
Do not defenestrate that child, I will find you.
AnotherHumanoid
Excellent use of the word!

NerdyPickles
I have a 10 y/o girl & I feel every bit of your comment.
amunday2013
People joke like that...but would you ever REALLY do it? And like a prior one said...why not drop him at a fire station?
ChocolateCookieAndFudge
No I wouldn't. Mostly because it's entirely my fault that she is alive and sometimes I feel sorry I did that to her.
tidepool
So many potential mamas who never got the chance to love a child of their own. She’ll grow and it’ll get better.
ChocolateCookieAndFudge
I know I'm lucky. I have a couple of friends who have already had 6 miscarriages. My heart breaks for them.
MissAizea
Have you not met teenagers?
IdiotSavantTinker
My son as a teenager was 1000% better than I was.
ChocolateCookieAndFudge
It probably shows you did a great job at parenting.
jacobshoeft360
I'm not sure that works after they are an infant.
joot
It doesn’t.
igobeder
That may be true, but firefighters aren't going to try and detain you, and they will at least contact the right people, just no cemeteries
thanatos777
They will contact CPS, who will refer your case for prosecution. No matter the reason, you cannot legally abandon children in the U.S., 1/
igobeder
They can't refer you if they don't know who you are.
thanatos777
If the child is old enough to talk, it's very likely they can figure it out.
thanatos777
even though we've created huge systemic poverty that fuck over parents. 2/2
