Protect The Children

I just saw on the news where  little three year old girl was beaten to death by her mother and stepfather.This really just burns me up and makes me angry.How can a mother beat and mistreat someone she brought into this world? It is no surprise that some sorry men will take part in it.What are they thinking?I am sure they wouldn't want the same thing to happen to them.Another innocent child has lost her life because of sorry folks.What can we do?
