Earlier this week an 11-year-old Battle Creek girl went into her mother's room while she was sleeping and attempted to kill her with a butcher knife.

According to NBC25, the two got into an argument after the mother grounded her for smoking. After the mother went to bed, the young girl went into her room with the intention of taking her life . The mother called police right away.

Police say when the girl was questioned about the knife, she admitted that she was attempting to kill her mom.

She now faces possible charges of felony aggravated assault.

It's a messed up world when you can't even ground your kids for fear they will kill you in your sleep. I can't imagine that mother will ever sleep a wink again as long as that little monster is in the house.
