        It’s very disturbing no one investigated this family, and a neighbor said she saw children march by a window for hours st night, and did nothing? Did that seem like normal behavior? So sad for these children!

        Not saying I'm for or against the death penalty but these parents really don't belong on this earth. They shouldn't be here. #protectkidsalways

        It is a shame that so many hard core radical right wing types in Texas believe that people like Hillary were socialists for even thinking that schools should investigate these kinds of crimes when children are obviously abused, let them fend for themselves I guess!

        Like Hillary Clinton said, It takes a village to raise and protect a child. It takes everyone to protect a child.

        Why didn't the teachers in school report their sanitary conditions to social services. Everyone turned a blind eye. Sad.

        Sad because children can be so hard on other children. But they are children after all. But it is tragic that teachers and administrators didn’t do more to help that little third grader, and by doing so, safe the entire family.

        The fact that people are this sick and twisted to treat their children like this is disgusting and disturbing. Makes you wonder how they were brought up and what led to wanting to do such a horrific thing. Those poor kids.

        If they were sent to school like this, why didn't the school call CPS?

        So sad. I hope the children of these seemingly inane monster parents will eventually thrive. Thanks for this article.

        Another reason to advocate even once a year checkups on children who are homeschooled. I am SO against homeschooling children with no safeguards in place. CA they homeschooled not TX...

        That's why you don't bully. Leave people alone if they're not your cup of tea. #bullying
