This is A TRUE STORY AND IF YOU DON'T PASS THIS ON YOU DON'T HAVE A SOUL!!!

...I am highly opposed to being emotionally blackmailed, so let's rock this bitch.

Someone on my facebook posted this as a link, along with a dreadful picture of a toddler with a black eye and a split lip.

My name is Chris ,
I am three,
My eyes are swollen..
I cannot see.

That's awesome writing skills for a three-year-old.

I'm going to remind you of the title line here;

This is A TRUE STORY AND IF YOU DON'T PASS THIS ON YOU DON'T HAVE A SOUL!!!

Really?  A three-year-old wrote this?  Okay.

I'm going to skip the gory details (something like seven verses of such) because they're irrelevant, and I'm not giving her any more free advertising.

My name is Chris ,
I am three,
Tonight my daddy,
Murdered me.

A dead three-year-old wrote this?  I'm calling bullshit.

And you can help,
Sickens me to the soul,
If you read this,
And don't pass it on.

I pray for your forgiveness,
You would have to be,
One heartless person,
Not to be affected,
By this Poem.

I'm sickened to the soul too, Sherry.  You made up a lurid dramatic poem (or, to be fair, quoted since I'm sure I've heard it before), and pretended that a dead three-year-old wrote it purely to get some online attention?  You've got some issues.

IF YOU ARE AGAINST CHILD ABUSE!
Post this as 'Daddy ... It hurts'

Why?  What good do you think that will do?  Why not take the time it takes to read this and respost it, and find a link to a charity that does something about?  Or even volunteer for them?

If you do not send this to everyone you know
Then you obviously don't care about child abuse.

Fuck you.  Because I don't repost your stupid poem (that comes from the mind of a dead three-year-old!) I don't care about child abuse?  Hello, paging logic.

At first I thought this was just a chain letter
And I wasn't going to send it either,
But now I realize that this is an important situation.

But not important enough to do more than pass on a stupid chain letter, obviously.

At least 5 children each day from around the world die from child abuse!!!!

Really?  That's awesome!  Do you know how many women die of domestic violence?  If the child abuse rates are that low, perhaps it's time to turn your attention to someone else?  (I'm being sarcastic, I know they're not really that low.  In one fell swoop she's managed to both over-dramatize and under-represent amounts of child abuse. Fantastic).

...yeah, I'm grumpy, and this silly cow just got in my way.  Throughout this, I'm referring to the original poster, who had it as a note on her facebook, not my friend who reposted it (I generally like her, you see.  And I'm giving this girl attention too, although, admittedly, not by blindly reposting a link.  Cba to argue about whether that''s hypocritical or not).
