To complicate things, I see the child as a victim, also. Maybe not first and foremost a victim, but certainly a victim.
I agree. And sadly, I am not convinced that there will be much, if any, of an intervention to help make that kid a productive and successful member of society.
Yet another mess bequeathed upon future society by us current members kicking the can down the road. *sigh*
