4 out my 5 son's have had to stay overnight in hospital, some for longer. I couldn't imagine leaving them laying there by themselves, all day and night, without Mummy or Daddy or even a Grandparent.
Yet, while I have stayed in the Hospital with my children, I have noticed a very lax parenting style appear. My second eldest spent over 2 weeks in hospital during January, and shared a room with 3 young children. I saw one lot of the parents once in just over 2 weeks. My heart ached for the newborn son, and still 6months on, I still wonder how he is. If they now want to spend time with him, or love him.
Is it neglect or just a cruel style that nothing can be done about..?
