Mothers like this are the issue.

OP here. I absolutely did not; it showed up on a FB page I follow, Love What Matters, today, but had no mention of that. Is this really the mother of shooting victims?

What a weird coincidence! I wonder if it’s her.

It's definitely the Dayton shooter's mother. I don't want to use his name, but the names of all of them (mother, son, daughter) are the same.

No. The last names don’t match. Also, jeans / Red Robin kids are Ryan and Allison. Not Conner and Megan.

No, they aren't talking about the Red Robin mom.

They are saying that the Pinterest account someone linked later in the thread belongs to the Dayton shooter's mother.

Red Robin mom super sucks, but I hardly think her kid is going to go shoot up a wine festival.
I don’t know what the “issue” is, but it’s not this. I’m sick of the behavior f’ed up men being blamed on women.

What!!! Really. That’s a crazy coincidence.

Good God to all of this.

Oh, come on people. Lots of families have children named Connor and Megan. It's just a coincidence.

What a weird thread.

There was a dad involved, too, co-signing this madness. Why do you lay this only at the mom’s feet?

It’s the shooters mother’s Pinterest

I remember the first time we went out to eat after my oldest left for college. I didn’t cry. But it was a really sad feeling. Of course we had eaten out without him many times. But asking for a table for six instead of seven felt so strange because he wasn’t out with friends. He was no longer living with us. For months I caught myself accident setting too many places at our table after each kid left.

It’s hard, my friends.

Doesn't everyone do this?

H & I went to dinner with my parents & brother, but without our 3 kids, one of which is in college.

How many in your party?

Technically 5, but one is away at school so 4. But 2 didn't come tonight so only 2. But we brought 3 other people so 5.

It's definitely the shooter's mother. The full name of the page owner (first and last) matches, along with the kids' names. And it's not a coincidence that the Pinterest page is circulating as an example of weird Pinterest pages. Probably at some point there was a description attached which explained the connection to the Ohio shooter, but often on viral URLs, descriptions get removed or changed. So now the URL is circulating without context.

It's a weird page, but PPs are right: the implications that the mother's weird Pinterest pages somehow caused or are related to her son's mass murder are just ridiculous. Place the blame where it belongs.

Completely irrational. Had she never been to dinner without him before? Will she never go to dinner without him again? It’s not like he’s dead and never coming back. This level of attachment isn’t healthy. It’s moms like this that are the issue.

She’s pure prosperity gospel white trash. An American nightmare in cusp jorts.

It's creepy. Do these women not have lives outside of their grown adult kids? Will they cease to exist with no children in their lives?


Wait. This is the mother of the Dayton shooter. The art of being a mom.


Wait waht??

Appears to be. Same last name, kids Connor and Megan. Both dead.

He evidently had a kill list and rape list of girls in his HS.

Disgusting. Parents that coddle their boys and raise them with a princely sense of entitlement... STOP DOING THIS. Your precious baby boy needs rules, punishments, boundaries, to be told "no" often. Clearly this mom was caught up in the fetishizing of her own perfect children.

It's not a great thing to do for girls either, but girls generally don't lash out and kill others. Boys and young men do. Loving your kids doesn't mean smothering them. You have to teach them how to deal with disappointment and rejection and failure.

Dads too, but I think a lot of dads shrug their shoulders and let mama bear do her smothering thing.

This exactly.

The way you raise your kids has a lot to do with how they turn out. Maybe she was a great mom. But the fact that she was living with images and fantasies of toddlers and newborns while says they were inspired by her 22-year-old and 24-year-old says that she at very least was checked out and possibly mentally unwell.

Violent people usually had some kind of childhood trauma.

Mental health is a lot more complicated than just issuing more punishments and no’s. In some cases, that could make their mental health worse.
