Not since the infamous "British Nanny"case (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Woodward), has "baby shaking" been so tasteless and infuriating.
But a new I phone application featuring a representation of a crying baby, which whom the user needs to shake till red x's appear over the eyes to silence- has got some people shakin mad and asking Apple what the hell they were thinking...
Not that some of I phone's other applications aren't equally tasteless,
but this one has attracted the angst of parents who's children are victims of Abusive Head Trauma (Shaken Baby Syndrome) The application, which thankfully is no longer available by the way, was developed by a company named Sikalosoft, who's website is conveniently offline.

One wonders who at Apple is in charge of reviewing such applications and if these said persons, or person, might need supervision of some sort lest they might injure themselves or others...
