Right, I understand that you wouldn't explain this to a child, it was more of a hypothetical proposition outlining the extent of strange violence humans carry out and the types of victims it creates.
I would like to know if there is even any known historical precedence for either killing someone and stealing their unborn child, or freaking out and cutting your baby's arms off and leaving them to die.
And I'm sorry. I don't believe in 'evil'. That trick doesn't work on me anymore.

Evil describes an act of negativity, do these acts not seem evil?

Cool, understood, the definition of evil is subjective.
How would you describe the acts you mentioned in terms not subject to interpretation?

I'd explain it to my child as soon as it comprehended speech.
Kids aren't fragile... Adults are.
Anger comes from deception, thats a known fact....
Your raising your children with Hate in them, with lies and deception instead of truth and honesty....

I would let the child be a child. No sense running the risk of emotionally scarring the kid and giving them nightmares for the rest of their life. Every child will develop differently emotionally. There will be a time when it is okay to tell the child. Plus, by the time the kid hits school the other children will tell or tease her/him (I don't know the sex of the child). There will also come a time when I'm sure the child will ask why they do not have a mommy unless the guy remarries in the near future.

Kids can be so cruel. They are always the first ones to tell the truth. Sad, really...
