Re: Michelle Carter To Get 2 1/2 Years In Texting Case

How a person could know that another human is thinking of killing themselves,and urge them to do it is just beyond any excuse.

She also said in a text to one of these girls "if they (police) ever read my texts I'm going to jail".  

 

I don't have kids, but if I had one who did this I would sink into the deepest depression and not want to go on. And wonder forever what I did in raising him/her that contributed to this. The lack of humanity is unfathomable.

Re: Michelle Carter To Get 2 1/2 Years In Texting Case

Forgive me if I'm incorrect:  Didn't I read/hear somewhere that she is anorexic?  Used to be that some (maybe many?) people who have it also have issues with a desire to control.  Food, themselves, others, etc.  Could have been a control issue.   .......... Also, last evening I thought about how, imo, her actions resemble, say, a five year (or so) old's actions.  Thinking and doing things without fully understanding and thinking about the consequences and reality of danger, understanding the concept of life-and-death, etc.

It would be interesting to delve into her family life.  Info about her background, parents, siblings, etc., etc.  What her peers at school have been observing about her.
