    ...and you STILL got on that plane without him, instead of staying, like so many people in miserable marriages do, and left the boy with a man you couldnt stand to be with yourself, then you judge him for being angry?

    Your ex is a very lucky lady... I have always had to fend for my younger son and myself - as a foreigner in the land of Wa... And one of the only times I got to see our older son (who was 19 at the time) it was when he "invited himself" into the office where I was working, punched me in the mouth and ran off with my keys - all this in front of my colleagues - (I was fired...) A real "chip off the old block"...

    You walked out and left him, at five years old, taking his sibling. What did you expect him to do? Say "thanks for choosing my sibling over me?"

    So, Luca, you come home, and your wife has thrown your child out of the window after strangling them, and you would feel sorry for her, allow her to see her children "after treatment", and you would feel nothing but pity? Then you must truely be a better person than I am.

    "that a defendant should not be held responsible for his actions only if, as a result of his mental disease or defect, he (i) did not know that his act would be wrong; or (ii) did not understand the nature and quality of his actions—" - Awareness has everything to do with the insanity defence, Luca.

    It will all be diplomatic bollocks and happy-speak, so why bother?

    I have no desire to have him hung, drawn and quartered, but mentally tortured by his own guilt for doing this, I would certainly hope so, and he should receive a lengthy sentence in prison.

    He should absolutely not be allowed to see those children again, and a divorce granted without any contest. I would also hope he would be detained. Some people who are pefectly aware of their actions and the consequences of them, terrorise their families, and do terrible things to them and really need to be kept away from their children and spouses. This man clearly said what he had done to the child, and seems perfectly aware.

    You really feel sorry for a man who strangled his own baby, and threw him off a balcony? Seriously? I feel desperately for the children and mother, but this man made a choice to harm his own child, if he is tortured by that choice for the rest of his days, then good. He deserves that much at least. If a woman had done this to her child, would you have been so understanding and supportive, Luca?

    I have no desire to hurt this man, but Im pretty sure his wife would very much like to. I wonder how on earth she controlled herself, having returned home to this disaster.

    Mentally ill or just a man not able to control himself, Luca, I dont think that will matter a jot to the boy who was strangled and thrown off a balcony, nor to the mother who has to live with the fact that the man she trusted, married and had children with, admitted trying to kill her baby boy. I dont expect him to even get a suspended sentence, but hope that the mother will be able to walk away and take her children to safety away from this man.

    ..and he should also be forced to pay a reasonable amount of maintenance until the youngest is out of school, like in every other civilised country.

    He needs a long spell in prison for attempted murder, and should expect to never see his hopefully soon to be ex wife or the children again. Or can a man do absolutely anything to his family in Japan and expect people to support him on the strength of him being a man who is stressed by work and life?

    How lovely it would have been to wave goodbye to my 5 year old and let him play outside out apartment block with other kids, and my not having to stand out there and watch for hours. Thing is my inconvenience doesnt matter, what matters is that if I didnt go and stayed in my house while he played outside, he could go anywhere and do anything, and anything could have happened to him. As it was I saw when things were getting out of hand and could step in. But that is just me.

    Many times I saw other children left outside to play at 3 to 5 years of age, and getting into scrapes, and their parents or a supervising adult nowhere to be seen. Its actually horrifying that anyone could believe that a five year old is capable of caring for themselves for any amount of time without supervision, but as long as it aint my kid....

    Obviously it was unreasonable as the poor lad perished.

    If a parent cannot be home, due to work commitments, then they hire a babysitter or childminder, it is just what you do. You do not ever ever leave the child at home alone. What is wrong with some people here that they dont step up and be responsible adults. A nation of selfish people with no common sense.

    Just as I get to love a flavor of ice tea - grape, strawberry, caramel...it is gone and replaced by something nasty for a few months. Like those lovely strawberry natta de coco deserts in Lawson.

    Well I would not let my son, at five run, where I couldnt see him in a public space, Niki. I promise hand on heart I always had eyes on my kids at that age, in public spaces, and within the house I would always lock the balcony with a key, and dead lock the front door. Kids fall over, its part of growing up, thing is I see it exactly when it happens, and can act accordingly, rather than them being where I cant see them, and them having to find me first. If I couldnt see my young children in a public space, and had to go looking for him, I would never forgive myself for putting him in harms way. Its not like snatching, stabbings, and incidents like this never happen, is it?

    No screens needed, just a parent to supervise the children. In the end it was his parents responsibility to supervise him, or organise another responsible adult to do so. Their failure led to his death.

    Niki, I totally believe in never leaving 5 year olds unsupervised, no matter what. No excuses. No ifs buts and maybe's. Parents who fail to do so always make excuses as to the benefits of not supervising their young and vulnerable, and write off any harm to befall their children as accidents, and unavoidable, or blame something or someone else, when all it would take to make sure their children are safe, is for them to be better parents who put their children before themselves.

    This has nothing to do with the apartment building, he should never have been outside playing unsupervised. So many here fail to supervise and protect their children, because they are lazy and its culturally acceptable to do so. His parents should be charged with neglect.

    Five year olds cannot make good and safe choices about what they do when they are alone or with a group of other children. Im sure the hen na gaijin, "when in Japan, do as the Japanese do no matter what"-brigade will disagree with me.

    Any mother who has properly bonded with her child can totally understand and support this mother's actions.

    Bass, this man isnt after visitation though, is he? He wants custody and he wants it in the USA. Not only that he has pursued a case against the mother of his child, leading to her being locked up in prison, and then wants that same child to live with him after he has taken her mother away for her. This woman has not abused her child, just wanted to stay with her, and I, unlike some people here with no maternal feeling, totally understand that. Not so much father's rights, as father's wrongs.
