A mother's love is truly special:

A Marion County judge on Monday sentenced an Indianapolis woman to 18 months in prison for helping her 5-year-old son smoke crack cocaine.

Andrea Wilkey, 40, oheld the lighter n Aug. 6 while her son inhaled from a homemade pipe, police say. Her son tested positive for cocaine the next day.

Wilkey told police she was smoking crack in a "bong" made out of a baby food jar, glass pipe and rubber tubing.

Wilkey left the room, court records say. When she returned, her son was sitting at the table near the bong and asking to use the drug. "Come on. Let me do it," he said, according to records.

The mother said she then struck a lighter to the cocaine and watched her son inhale, according to records.

All the while, she probably complains that motherhood is the least appreciated "job" in the world. Ugh. That story turned my stomach.

Hmmm and gee isn't MTV and Kerry bitching about the hard time we give drug users? If you ask me, this lady should be locked up forever and not allowed to have any more kids.
