25 year old Arizona mom was arrested on april 10th and her hearing will be on april 19th. When the parents found out that they ate the mac-and-cheese they instead laughed off the whole incident, neglected to bring them into emergency care, and brought them into a cold pool so they could shock them. Thankfully the children were taken from the home.
Being one of the children, what would your thoughts be while going through all this?
If put in this situation i'd be completely scared for my life, confused on what's going on, and hope help would come to save me soon.
Being on the jury of this court case what thoughts or feelings would go through your head?
I'd most definetely be angered and confused on what would bring any parent to do something like this and that they're going to be in jail for quite a few years.

I'd be terrfied something were to happen to me and upset with my parents they didn't do much of anything to help me. I would be angered with the situation and immeditately arrest the parents for not taking care of the children, i'd also have the children removed from the home.
I would probably be frustrated and upset and think nobody is gonna help me
I would be infuriated and appalled that a parent would or even how they could do that.
So is it Mac & Cheese that's flavored to taste like THC or is it THC that's supposed to taste like Mac & Cheese? I'll just assumed it's Mac & Cheese with THC laced in it. I think it'd be scared because you don't know what could happen. I'd probably upset at the parents that aren't acting responsible for this.
If I were one of the kid that ate it I would probobly feel happy and tired. Considering that flavoring and lacing is different the kid might just feel confused a little or not think anything of it. I would want to know how the kids got ahold of it and who flavored the food.
1) Yes if I were in this situation I would have no idea what to do. I would be very scared an very frightend. I would hope that someone would come and help soon and take me to safty.
2) I would be mad and question the person like why would they do this and also hope they get what they deserve in jail.
Well I'd like to start with the fact that lacing something with a drug is not the same as flavoring something. 1- If I was a young child I would feel sleepy and want to take a nap, or possibly really happy. I say this because I've done research and no research that wasn't skewed has shown THC to have effects that would make someone afraid. 2- I'd be confused as to how the child got a hold of it to eat it if it was for the father. And whereas I'm sure the child is just fine. I do feel that the mother needs to be punished for allowing her young toddler to get a hold of the laced mac and cheese. Due to the fact that it can effect the development of young and undeveloped brains like any other drug.
Agreed.
I would be angry at my parents for letting it happen and then finding out and instead of being responsible they laughed at me. I dont know if I would want to see or even talk to them after they could have possibly killed me.
1. It would be terrified to just live there, let alone be experiencing the effects of my parents drug abuse.
2. I would want my parents in jail for hurting me like this, especially laughing while I suffered.
