Slate.com reported on a horrifying story yesterday about parents who, after giving birth to a child with some health complications, whiled away their time raising a cyber baby and left their real-world infant to starve. The South Korean parents met online, and soon developed a romantic relationship that resulted in the birth of a premature baby, whom they didn’t name, William Saletan reports for Slate. Instead, they dedicated their time to raising “Anima,” an online baby they sustained with hours of attention, slipping away from her infrequently to feed their live infant powdered milk. After one long session at the internet cafe, they came home to find their flesh-and-blood child dead; an autopsy ruled that she had died of malnutrition and dehydration.
