Daniel sounds like a real winner. If you do not want to be bothered by your child, give the child a chance and let them be adopted by someone who will love them. Sick to death of hearing about parents who abuse their child. To them the child is nothing but a meal ticket and a game piece.

Lorie, Where in the article did it say it was his child? Are you just assuming, or do you have another source confirming this was his child?

Frank, you might want to read the item she's commenting on. It states quite clearly the alleged victim is a child. It also says that in the headline.

Howard, you might want to re-read the item, it cleary states a man was accused of choking a 10 year old child, it doesn't state the accused is the father, or for that matter
that the accused is even related to the victim.
We can assume this, but the item is not stating that matter of factly.The item goes on to state that Saeva allegedly choked a 10 year old child Dec.12, in the City of Batavia.
Still not comprehending any part of this that would have me beleive the accused is a parent of the victim, thus, my comment to Lorie.

My apologies, Frank. Somebody said to me, basically, "Frank's questioning that the victim is a child," then I didn't read your comment carefully (red face under the circumstances).
