Mother Arrested For Biting Baby

An eye for an eye, a bite for a bite?

An eye for an eye, a bite for a bite? At least, that seems to be one Tennessee mother's motto as she was arrested for biting her nine-month-old daughter after the baby bit her forehead while fussing. The 29-year-old was arrested and charged with child neglect after a relative noticed teeth marks on the child's elbow seven hours after the incident occurred and called police. The child is currently in her father's care and the mother who was released from jail is scheduled to appear in court on June 23.
