Dallas mom glued daughter's hands to wall

A 22-year-old Dallas mother is in jail after police say she glued her toddler daughter's hands to a wall, kicked her in the stomach and beat her over a potty training issue.

The Dallas Morning News reports that the 2-year-old child was on life support Thursday. A hospital spokeswoman told The Associated Press she had no information on the girl Friday.

The newspaper, citing police records, said glue and paint were stuck to the girl's palms, with skin torn away in places.

4. I bet a lot of abuse occurs over potty training.
1. Diapers are expensive
2. Child care at day care centers is usually prohibited until the child is potty trained.
3. Nothing fun about cleaning up waste.

Note: Not trying to excuse the mother's repulsive actions.

8. Most of us are lucky our mothers weren't like this.
And those of us who are not lucky are lying.

5. Here's the sad details on the injuries.
According to police reports, Escalona dragged her daughter by her feet from the kitchen area to another part of the apartment. She then glued her child’s hands and stuck them to the wall until they bled. She then allegedly hit the girl in the stomach with a jug of milk, kicked her in the stomach and beat her with a shoe and a belt.

“Yeah she was extremely bruised," the aunt said. "She had a head concussion, she had a broken leg and broken ribs. We don't know how it happened, but she was covered in bruises."

Police said numerous people say they'd seen Escalona inflict pain on the child in the past. Now, the little girl may have extensive brain damage and countless injuries.

Police said the torture began because the little girl soiled in her pants, and this was her punishment.

7. Locking her up until she cannot have anymore kids sounds appropriate to me.
Sick bitch.
