I’m not sure whether to file this story under World’s Dumbest Criminals, World’s Worst Moms, or both. (I’m leaning towards both.) A Texas woman named Kisha Young is in jail after she forced six children–including four of her own–to ride on the hood and roof of her car after picking them up from the pool because she didn’t want her seats to get wet.

Do I even have to mention that she was drunk when she did this? Predictably, the kids fell off the car when she rounded a corner–and Young kept on driving.

Young, the 38-year-old driver and mother to some of the children, was arrested on suspicion of intoxication assault, a third-degree felony.

Additional charges are expected to be sought against Young and the 31-year-old mother of the other children involved, who was a passenger in the front seat, said officer C.C. Meadows, a spokeswoman with the Crowley Police Department.

Young’s 12-year-old daughter was airlifted by helicopter to the hospital with a severe head injury. I hope it was worth keeping those seats dry!

I continue to be shocked by how many people in this world just don’t give a crap about their kids. If there’s a choice between pristine leather car seats and their child’s life, they’ll take the seats. I hope Young gets her tubes tied and doesn’t produce any more little victims. (Although, considering the standard breeding habits of child abusers like her, that’s probably too much to ask.) If this is how she treats her kids in public, I shudder to imagine what she does to them behind closed doors.
