The father should be punished I agree ALTHOUGH I can't really blame him for wanting to do it...however you just can't do that and not expect to be prosecuted.
I feel bad for the mother/wife...she's lost her son and husband. I also feel bad for the child and their family.
As far as comparing it to putting down a dog...well that's wrong too in most cases but that's a whole 'nuther can of worms all together.
