Woman Kills Child for Interrupting Farmville Game

*Slowly losing hope in humanity... one Toms article at a time*

That is just pure addiction right there...killing her baby over a game. Why don't people think before they act?

WTF.... and they say FPS games are bad? F*** these stupid people. Please remove her from the gene pool ASAP.

Not really tech news... I got fox news for **** like this.

*Post edited by moderator* Cool it on the language.

A smoker. That makes sense.

Addiction is a nasty thing. Horrible to hear this. I don't care what anyone else says, games cerainly can be addicting and harmful.
To all those affected, please get help.

WOW How sad!

Kill the *****, hang her body for the crows and let it be a lesson to other idiots.
Oh wait...they are idiots, they would not understand the lesson anyway.
Shoot them all.

Don't Shake the Baby!

(0.0) + shaky shaky = (X.X) dead baby

Who plays farmville anyways? I mean, it is a pointless game and has no value into society. I can't believe Zucerberg allows this crap on Facebook. The woman is stupid for being on the computer with a child present, and killing it over it not shutting up is Also dumb ass restarted as well.

Life in prison without parole.

bad mommy... bad mommy....

They should make a law that requires you to get a license in parenting when you have a kid or take it away.

@Werxen You and me both man, you and me both.

Facebook has exceeded the limit of being a site.
More and more silly people that have no aim in life are attracted to it on a daily basis.
Please shut all social networking sites down because they are really silly, and makes people waste their lives stupidly.
e-mails are fine.

This is part of the generation that voted for Obama in 08 and watches that garbage Jersey shore on MTV now. You know that channel that doesnt show actual music videos anymore...Ignorant lazy and spoiled needs to be took out back and beaten crowd. I blame the parents at the end of the day! Hope she spends life in prison that baby never had a chance to begin with.

its not the point whether or not she was addicted to the game... its the fact that the ***** is just right out stupid... i like playing these games on here... and yes sometimes its addictive,,, I have 2 beautiful little girls and i sure as hell aint gonna harm my children just bc they need me. Being addicted to a game does not make u shake a baby to death... being stupid and crazy as hell will though... the ***** needs to have life in prison with out parole and also ppl need to make it hell on her to be there. Ppl like that make me sick to my stomach and im sorry but shizen... everyone gets on the computer with there kids present... come on... get real here

Forgot to tell that what happened is a direct result of losing your mind for a moment, and not thinking in what you're doing.
overhaul the laws and obligate the people to have some education for doing their natural jobs (fatherhood, motherhood) in a right way.
RIP my poor child.
Human beings, Just selfish, silly and cruel creatures.

soldier37, what has this got do with politics? That is the most insane thing I ever heard. Are you trying to imply that her political affiliation had anything to do with this. This is one woman with severe psychological problems and using it to score political points out of a tragedy is just twisted.

I think we need to go with the eye for an eye logic right here.

SHAKE THE MOTHER!!!!!!!!!! Then apply cliff!!!!!!!!

Sickening truly sickening. Even though its almost certain that mental illness played a role in
this it's still so hard to understand. While nothing will ever make what happened right I do hope
that the mother gets the help she needs and hopefully if not already realizes what she did was wrong and regrets it.

This shows how ppl can take the smallest things and turn it around on a poor child! If it wasnt the game today it could have been her fav tv show tomorrow, or a phone call the next day!!! She needs LIFE!! with no way in hell to get out!! PPl that messed up dont just fix thereself over night they screwed for life!!

Why is it that we have to keep paying taxes to detain these rejects.

I can see it now.... "God damn it I was about to spread this manure you spoiled brat!!!" *Clubs kid with keyboard several times* "Ahh thats much better..." *Goes back to Farmvilie game*

Somehow I suspect that the mom might have also been smoking meth or crack or something... I just can't imagine Farmville alone inciting this kind of violence.

Disclaimer: I have never ever played Farmville and it looks boring as hell to me.

Quick, sue Zynga (FarmVille's publisher), it's the American way. I mean, clearly Zynga acted with reckless disregard for the welfare of her family by designing such an addictive game. And the subliminal messages it conveys clearly caused her to do this. Besides, Zynga has money and their stock is way up right now. Go ahead, it makes as much sense as suing bands and record labels when kids kill or commit suicide.

Very sad. Now tie her tubes.

Another good excuse of why condoms exist.

Evolution in action.

It's very sad that it happened. However, I will say that Farmville, World of Warcraft, Cafe World, Assassins Creed and a myriad of many other games can be addictive. I'm as susceptible to spending too much time playing games and having no life as anyone else is. We can't really blame anyone but ourselves for setting in front of the computer and zoning out to real life.

I think we've done it to ourselves because it was easy entertainment for our kids and we excused it as "well at least I know they are home staying out of trouble and they are safe"... Addiction whether computer based, physical, mental or any other form is something that we all need to guard ourselves against.

There is no excuse for what she did only an example of what we are allowing ourselves to become because there are less or no risks in a virtual world.
