IN your Opinion column, "Public must be told why Levi was left to die" (LET, April 23) one point stood out and that was the child's mother was an inadequate parent.
We cannot guarantee in any family that there will always be an adequate mother or father.
But we can educate people in the principles of marriage and the truth that there are those of us who are ill-equipped to take on the job of parent and should be discouraged from doing so.
It may then help a little to avoid this kind of tragedy.
F BILLINGTON (Mr), East Crescent, Accrington.
