MERIWETHER COUNTY, Ga. -- A Georgia mother is accused of forcing her 12-year-old son to kill his pet hamster because of a bad report card.
It happened last Thursday at the family's home, said Meriwether County Sheriff Steve Witlock.
Investigators said Lynn Geter made her son use a hammer to kill the hamster.
Geter was arrested Friday following an interview with investigators.
She is charged with battery, cruelty to children and cruelty to animals.
Investigators said Geter also violated probation and remains in jail.
My parents did some mean things to me as a kid but god damn...

God dammit this is a shitty story to wake up to. Clever title though.

Hahahah
I mean... Wow this is horrible.

I always wonder about the things that aren't mentioned in articles like this, such as how the police ended up interviewing her in the first place. Did the kid call the cops and tell them "My mommy is a murderer" or what?

Goddamn kids these days, they have to learn the facts of life- sometimes you have to kill things with hammers no ifs ands or buts about it.

This is absolutely awful. I hate stories like this where the primary victim is a third party unrelated to the dispute (in this case, the hamster). Not that the kid is having a fun time either, of course. Wow.

I think the fucked up thing about the title is that it isn't so much funny as it's shockingly appropriate.
I've heard about this story the other day, the kid told his teacher who reported it to the police.

I've read this story (maybe not same link as the one provided?) and it stated that the child told the teacher what had happened and the teacher reported it to the appropriate organization.
