Didn't I read somewhere that she abandoned Ethan and his father to take off with that loser? Why did she fight for custody? And if it is true that she abandoned them then the judge should have never placed a court order making this baby visit her. Especially for the summer.
Hi no explanation. I'm using your post as a jumping off point. My comments aren't directed at you
About SS being afraid of NS. Bull stinky.
All of the Mother's here ask yourself ~ what would it take for you to witness the brutalization and murder of your own child? Would you have to be hog-tied? Would you still say nothing even if you had a gun to your temple?
Surely I am not the only Mother that would have to be incapacitated or severely injured to allow someone to do this to my own child?
About the psychology behind the crime on the Mother's part (not a justification, there is no justification ever for what was done to Ethan).
(here is where I jump off of noexplanations post!) This Mother was clearly detached from Ethan. At what point during the seperation and divorce did she walk away from Ethan? How long had it been since she behaved in a nurturing fashion towards Ethan? Did she have visitation during the seperation and divorce proceedings? If so, what happened that Ethan did not want to go be with her? Just some thoughts.
Also, there are women who objectify their children. By that I mean they do not see the child as a seperate entity worthy of being loved for who they are~ but rather those Mother's use their children as pawns. To be used as a game piece. To exact whatever effect they wish on those that do love the child as a child should be loved.
If what I typed above proves to be an accurate facet of who she is---she's a monster herself. (yes nursie she had a plan and I bet it probably involved Ethan's Father).
This woman was no victim. I think that there may be a distinct possibilty that the brushing of the teeth to the point of making the gums bleed because she thought she detected feces in Ethan's mouth was a ruse.
1. There must have been the possibility that LE was going to find Ethan's blood in that apartment.
or
2. To explain some of the damage to his mouth when LE did find him.
Rest in peace little buddy. Our hearts are with you and your Daddy.
