SUFFER THE CHILDREN

It's my party and I'll kill if I want to

Crying is not how one 13-year-old Baltimore girl handled a 'betrayal' at her recent birthday party.
When the birthday girl's 'boyfriend' kissed a 12-year-old guest on the cheek at the party, the birthday girl's mother was furious, and ordered her daughter to 'handle your business'. At which point the unfortunate guest, Nicole Ashley Townes, was savagely beaten by six women and girls, including the mother, and sent into a coma.

[While it is still true that violence among boys is a much bigger problem than violence among girls, as measured by arrest statistics, AP reports that while it used to be the ratio was 10 to 1, now it's 4 to 1.]
