When it comes to family, I truly got the best there is. I think I had boyfriends NOT break up with me because of my family. I may have been replaceable. My family, not so much. They rock.
They were supportive, strict, tough, funny and lovely to be around. I think it's hard the way families are today. I was thinking about that devil who killed his children recently. (Josh Powell) How only the family who lives within the house TRULY knows what someone is like. How the courts assume that just because someone is a biological parent, they have rights to their kids. But that HAS to change. Before we lose one more child/wife/husband to a sociopath.
Birth doesn't make some people natural mothers/fathers. Have you noticed how are society gives no credence to the kids, but they know the truth and moreover, they'll tell you the truth if you ask them. It's time to start questioning those around fighting spouses and not assuming the separated/divorcing spouse is trying to get revenge. Ask the kids. Ask the in-laws.
This man was Satan incarnate and the family who lost their daughter knew it. But laws are not written for this type of sociopath. Sociopaths get their way time and time again in our court system.
It's time we got mad about under-the-radar sociopaths. Every time, I hear this story, I'm sick for the in-laws who were the true parents once their daughter was killed. They KNEW the truth and yet, had no power in the court system. It's time judges looked for truth and not just the black and white of the law.
Sociopaths will tell you what you want to hear. They'll work the law to get their power/control (sources say the house for the visitations was a sham house set up for just that purpose.) Sociopaths will make odd circumstances sound reasonable. (Taking two babies out in a frigid snowstorm to "camp") They'll even make you question their victims (Susan Powell made a "pass" at her father-in-law -- yeah, right.)
Since everyone doesn't have a family like mine, it's only right to give our judges a course on psychopathic manipulation.
I visited Grandpa today. He looks SOO much better after his eye surgery. Do you see how lucky I am? Not only did I have all four of my grandparents to help raise me until I was 37, but I still have my favorite person on earth, Granda (97 in December!)
