She looks so sad in this picture
And resigned? Almost, like this is usual - momma has to be the center of attention...
moo
She looks so sad in this picture
I agree with u on MW's body language and mom
Being totally Oblivious. Also agree with: "That is to say she treated only-just-3-years-old Mariah as knowing the needs of those around her" -- developmentally inappropriate expectations are a mistake made by so many parents, and is often the basis for punishment/abuse [emoji35]
Re: the hairbow, believe I've seen another pic of Mariah alone on that same day with the pink bow on her head. LooksLike a bow from a present and I assume MW stuck it on her own head to be silly.
How does NG get these details? Contacts/Inside information?I'd been wondering also if she wasn't at least wrapped in something?
Or just dumped?
The thought of her little body all alone in he cold, dark...ugh.
NGrace said on her last podcast that Mariah was found "face down"
I feel for the poor diver who found her -- being elated and relieved at finally finding her; then being equally distressed by what (s)he has just found.
That's got to be tough to do.
Yes it does thank you. Two dead three year olds back to back. Sherin Mathews, Mariah Woods.It happens too many times unfortunately.

Nuff Said.

That's the first thing I noticed when I saw that photo, and when I saw the facebook logo in the coner, I couldn't believe she had actually posted that to FB, with how unhappy Mariah looked.
tbh, when I first saw it several days ago, before the CPS document leak...
I was reading into that photo: a tired, cranky Mariah was refusing to pose with the new doll, for EK to to take a pic... and EK was beginning to get angry, so KHW jumped in, to appease hothead EK and avoid a DV incident.
But after the info that has come out recently... now I don't know what to think!

Also, neglectful parents often brag about the maturity of their small children, "she can make her own breakfast", "he can run the washer and dryer all by himself", and so forth. MOO

I'm not sure I understand your reply.Oh no, here I go again. I hope this hasn't been addressed 12 times because I, too, cannot devote too much time to this today.
This is an interesting point. Fwiw, iirc from personal experience, in Onslow County they refer to the department to which one would report concerns of child neglect etc as DCFS, the department of child and family services, I believe. It wasn't until I moved out of state that I heard CPS as a term for the department one would call Child Protective Services.
I don't believe she was paying any attention to how her child looked. She's one of those people who focuses on how she looks in a photo, and if she thinks it's a flattering photo of herself, up it goes. Just another way that her child was not on her radar.I agree, why in the world would she have chosen this pic to post to FB? When I first saw it, my thoughts were that it wasn't about how Mariah looked, it was more about how good KW looked (at least in her mind). Most parents would post a more suitable pic showing their child at their best, given that this was MARIAH'S day. I also wondered if the little doll was the gift from KW and EK, I got the impression from the video of her in the little pink Jeep that it may have come from the grandparents. MOO
