take a peek at this story

this girl died from a treatable illness because instead of being brought to a doctor her parents prayed for her health

my question is, should the parents be held responsible?

i say yes, they should face a penalty of jail time.
as a parent you are responsible for the well being of your children
their negligence in not helping this child with the easily available medical attention she needed is what made her not only die but apparently suffer for 30 days

what do you all think?
