[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, society is much more aware of and sympathetic to mental illness in general. If I remember correctly, people were initially horrified by the Yates case because there were so many children and her act seemed so calm and deliberate. Once the true circumstances were revealed, there was a lot more sympathy for her. [/quote] I think it’s more horror and pity than sympathy. Try as they might, no one actually can understand this sort of thing. People just choose their words more carefully now. [/quote]
