There's always someone else to blame...

Link here. Excerpt:

'A mother has given evidence that she choked and hit her five, small starving children if they tried to get food because she was scared of another woman who hated them.

The mother has admitted she watched her five kids, aged four to seven, beg for dog food because they were so hungry.

The mother, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was giving evidence in a Supreme Court trial in Adelaide of three men who are accused of mistreating the five children from late February 2008 to June 2008.'
