Crazy! Police are investigating a man who put his four year old son on the website Craigslist for sale because he could no longer afford him. According to the posting:
“Gavin is a great kid but I can no longer afford to take care of him….he doesn’t fuss very much but when he does he just screams for hours. I usually just put him in the closet until he stops and that usually works. I don’t know what else to do other than find a good family with kids or a couple that wants a son. I just won’t give him to anyone.”
Officers are still trying to decide if this is just a bad hoax or if there’s really a dad out there this stupid so they can arrest him. See the news report after the jump!

PLEASE tell me this is not what our world has come to. i’ve heard of MUCH worse, but this is ridiculous. i mean. it’s one thing not to want the kid, it’s another to try and sell him (on the internet nonetheless). sheesh. if you’re going to be an ass, at least do it on the low.
and people call me selfish for not wanting to bring kids into this f^cked up world.
At least he didn’t kill him. Giving him away isn’t the worst thing he could do.
