I am so tired of seeing all of these abused children grow up to be extremely dysfunctional adults who end up committing horrible crimes. They must pay for their deeds however their parents or whoever abused them get away with what they have done to the child. I am not saying that kids should get away with murder. But why is it that when we as a society are dealing with children who clearly have valid issues due to the way in which they were raised we try to help them. But once they become adults we throw them in prison and their parents go on with life uninterupted!!!
Like for instance, a girl who is sexually abused by a father for years, over and over again. She finally snaps and kills her dad. She gets thrown in jail and the father bears no responsibility whatsoever. I bet if we interviewed the prison population the number of inmates that were treated horrifically during childhood would be staggering. I know this is a fine line and I am NOT saying that I condone murder, I just really feel for these adults who are really still wounded children in a bigger body!!!
What about the kid who lived with his grandparents, never violent, a good boy. He started taking Zoloft and snapped, killed his grandparents and ended up in prison. Was is it the Zoloft? Do we even care?
Or the kid who has a violent life, he is clearly acting out, fighting, committing crimes, doing drugs and so forth. He gets arrested, thrown in jail. Do we even bother to take into consideration that his home life is horrendous? That he is going home to no food, a drug addicted mother, an alchoholic father who abuses him horribly, he just wants to die. Why aren't his parents held responsible for messing him up, shouldn't that be a crime in itself?
I think once we hear someone's story we can no longer scratch our heads and wonder why? Most of the time it all makes sense!!
What about an abuser? A young man who grew up in a violent home. Watching his mother get beat by her man day after day. The violence turns to him, now he is getting beat day after day. Then this poor young man grows up and starts to beat his wife. I mean isn't this what he has learned from his parents? Don't they own some of this? This is what he knows. Please don't mistake me, I in no way agree with physical abuse of any kind. I just think often times parents really make bad choices and the children pay dearly for them and yet they get away with it!!!!
Just thought I'd open this up for discussion.
Please don't yell at me!!! LOL
