OT - When "parenting" goes horribly wrong...

Wadup DD!!!  Understand.  Valid point.  Yeah, had it happened to my baby girl..... well you know.  But I agree; most normal boys would go to others their own age.  And this boy might have attempted that but might have been rejected by females closer to his own age group.  Perhaps that would have caused him to turn to his sister.  On know; there are many ways this could pan out.

At that age, I think the curiosity can sometimes be overwhelming, not taking away from the fact that it's still wrong.  I might be way off base here, but I'm willing to bet that this type of sh*t happens every day or more often than anyone really wants to think about.  Maybe reinforcing the fact that it's wrong wasn't conducted in the household.  I mean, I would think that not very  many parents talk to their children about innapropriate touching among siblings.  We just somehow assume they know better.

He knew it waswrong, but at 15 might not have fully understood the potential psychological ramifications.  One thing's for sure...he didn't know the ramifications that his Dad was going to bring. 

Wow this story is very sad on many levels!

I'm almost positive that there's more to this story that hasn't been told yet. The father may have killed his son to keep the ugly truth from coming out about himself. It's possible that the father had abused the son and he (the son) was only doing what had been done to him. The father knew that all of this would come out eventually.....

The son can't open up that can of worms if he's dead!!

You can never tell these days.............I'm just saying...........

 @ The father may have killed his son to keep the ugly truth from coming out about himself.

I agree. 

But I also suspect, unfortunately for him though. that once he goes to the "Big House" the inmates there, who can't be at home with their own kids (that they always seem to be making babies for some daggone reason even if they are locked up.  But I digress...), are going to punish him severely for doing this to a child - aka Jailhouse Justice.  

You are absolutely right about the "Big House".  Inmates really do treat people who have harmed/killed children and the elderly worse than they treat anyone else. Being an ex correctional officer I've seen it firsthand!!!  It's not nice @ all!!!!!

I've actually seen inmates come into the system lying about their crimes trying to avoid the inevitable...... 

SoniaMc I was thinking the same thing.  This boy learned these behaviors from someone and with the actions that the father took I think it was from him.  A child learns from their environment.

I know Dreadz.....The father just freaked out.....thought of all the questions that would be asked in his head and saw himself being exposed.........He'd rather do time for protecting his daughter vs doing time for molesting his son......

Just My Opinion
