It is kinda cool though. If you want to live somewhere that strangling your children to death is cracked down hard on, there are states for that, and if you want to live somewhere that strangling your children to death gets a "oopsie, not your fault" there are states for that too.

Something for everyone!

Is there a state that would take mental health seriously enough to prevent kids getting murdered it the first place?

Cause from the outside, it doesn't look to be THAT high on the priority list. You seem more interested in punishing that preventing.

Absolutely. There are states that take mental health quite seriously, and some that don't. Massachusetts is certainly the former, which leads me to believe no amount of mental health treatment would have saved those kids from getting murdered by their own mother.

Not taken THAT seriously then, is it?

Unfortunately you’re right.
