NERSAC, France – Shocking news has emerged from the town of Nersac in the Charente region of France. A mother has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for abandoning her 9-year-old child, who was left to live alone in their family’s apartment for two years, from 2020 to 2022.
According to reports from BFMTV, the boy survived on cake, canned goods, and stolen tomatoes during this time. The child’s mother lived just 3.1 miles away with her partner and only visited the child “from time to time.”
Despite the difficult circumstances, the child continued attending school and was described as a good student by Nersac Mayor Barbara Couturier. However, it was revealed that the child often did not have access to hot water or heating.
Mayor Couturier took action after the mother asked for help from social services to buy food. ”I met his mom in May 2022. She came to tell us that she had financial problems, and we gave her four vouchers for food, but she took some processed food products instead, so that got me suspicious,” Couturier explained.
It was thanks to the alertness of Mayor Couturier and concerned residents that the child was finally placed under the care of social services in September 2022.
This heartbreaking story serves as a reminder of the importance of looking out for the well-being of children in our communities.



Yes, it is truly heartbreaking to imagine a child being abandoned for such a long period of time. The consequences should reflect the seriousness of the act.
Agree It is absolutely necessary for the mother to be held accountable for her actions. Abandoning a child for such a long time is an unforgivable act and deserves a prison sentence.
Uncaring It’s not my problem.
