[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 219818, member: 1233"] Until EVERYONE has a much clearer idea of what mental illness really is we will see actions like this and stories that attribute all violent actions of this nature to "mental illness". So very few people have any understanding of mental illness. and when anyone acts like this they are said to be mentally ill. The man who killed these people may have been able to avoid this kind of thing with proper treatment, or he may have made the choice to kill this family anyway. Whether it is due to an illness or not, it was a choice. I am so sorry that family was destroyed. I am sorry the little boy is an orphan. I hope he grows up to be a kind and compassionate man who understands that not all mentally ill people act the way the killer did. And I hope that someday soon we start educating EVERYONE about mental illness, and we start treating it more effectively. My prayers go out to the families involved. [/QUOTE]
