A four-year-old’s alcoholic parents have been spared prison after sending him to school stinking of urine and animal faeces.

Judge Taylor said their greatest punishment would be having their son removed from their care and never returned.

He continued: ‘The child was four at the time of their arrest and he was asked some questions by police officers.‘This is clear context to make me believe that such conditions had become normalised to him.’Social workers said they had been aware of him since just one day after his birth due to his parents’ drinking problems.

During sentencing, he told them: ‘There seems to have been dog poo or cat poo on every single surface throughout the house and no effort had been made to clear it up.‘Alcohol consumption has been a theme through both of your lives and I am going to treat you both the same because you are equally to blame and I cannot distinguish between you.
