She should be in jail for much much longer, because you know she will be out in less than 3 and on parol. Then a few years down the road she will be pardoned and it will be like nothing ever happened, while her kids will still be feeling the pains of her abuse.

Her kids will be removed from her permanently. I don't really care how long she spends in prison, but she should have to get a tubal ligation.
The kids will feel this pain the rest of their lives, but putting her in jail won't ease that pain. Being abused, or even worse, neglected, by a parent is the ultimate betrayal. But then people will wonder why these kids can't pull themselves up by their bootstraps - these kids will likely become problem adults themselves.
