A mother who left her young daughters home alone while she jetted off to Spain has spoken of the moment her "head blew" and she walked out.

The woman, 38, of Pontypridd, Rhondda Cynon Taf, flew to Malaga after a row with her children, 11 and 14, and left them ?30, Merthyr Crown Court heard.

She was given a suspended jail sentence after admitting exposing the children to unnecessary suffering or injury to health.

She said: "I'm really ashamed."

As she was was sentenced to 26 weeks in prison, suspended for 18 months, Judge Eleri Rees told the woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, she could not "opt in and out of being a parent".

My first reaction reading the bit you have her was .


After reading the article though, I kind of feel sorry for her. I would not have run off, but I'd sure as hell have wanted to.

Never!


Maybe some good will come of it all though; like her kids learning appreciation..and her kicking her drug addict sister out.
