[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think  you are all being too hard on the Dad.  First of all he makes it clear that Adam must have had a co-morbido and it was NOT the AS that led to the murders.  Second, he also makes it clear that ADam had a psychiatric illness so while you may quibble with the word "evil" he is not using it in opposition to mentally ill.

The father tried to stay in touch but when can you do when someone this old doesn't want to see his father?  [b]He didn't "let" his ex-wife deal with it, he was shut out by his son, aided by his ex-wife. [/b] And he continued to send Adam emails (that were never answered).

Basically the mother kept accommodating and accommodating  and didn't realize what she was enabling.   There is a bit of a cautionary tale here that those of us with kids with SN need to make sure we aren't accommodating behaviors that can and should change.[/quote]

Peter Lanza didn't make much of an effort did he?  He sent emails.  Was probably relieved on a certain level when his son stopped answering his emails.  No mention of the dad trying to see his son in two yrs.

Read the state's report.  The father and son relationship mostly deteriorated when the parents' divorce became final and like a lot of divorced dads, the father went on with his life without having to deal with his SN kid. [/quote]

He subtly blames his wife throughout the piece too, which he can do since she's dead. Solomon did t press him at all. Did he even ask if Lanza was okay with his son having access to guns?[/quote]
