Abused 4-year-old child tells police her name is 'Idiot' - myballfield - 08-20-2016
(CNN)The little girl was abused so badly she had a black eye, dried blood in the corner of her mouth and deep purple bruises all over her body.
But it's what she said when asked her name that's truly startling.
"Idiot."
The girl is only 4. She lived with her mother, Jennifer Denen, and Denen's live-in boyfriend, Clarence Reed, in a home in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Police say she was called an "idiot" so often and for so long that it was the word that sprung to her young mind when a social worker asked her name.

I think that the guy or the person who abused her was an idiot and he used to say idiot every single second when abusing the girl, that's the only thing that crosses my mind right now.

That might officially be the saddest thing that I have ever read. Well, actually the fact that it is not the saddest might actually be the saddest part, but I can feel my mind working in circles so I will stop. How terrible, though, and I really hate reading stories like this, but of course they make the headlines. I really hope that the family can recover, and they are certainly in my prayers. Thanks for sharing.
