[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m still sympathetic to OP. All you critics have no idea how little medical support the mentally ill get. It’s horrifying. Story after story in the news of criminal acts by the mentally ill neglect the multiple calls and requests for help made by family members. It’s a human disaster.

Disabled children are coddled with Medicaid benefits galore. Then you can sign up for government waivers to cover a lifetime of services. You do know serious mental illness patients get streets and prison cells? I have kids with both developmental disabilities and SMI and the SMI gets many fewer resources. [/quote]

Thank you for your understanding. OP here. I am sorry that you have children with disabilities. It must be really hard for you.

Truly most people have no idea how hard it is for normal mentally ill people  (who have no bad intention towards anyone and caught in a circumstance beyond their control) and their families. The news media media amplifies criminal acts of any mentally ill person. Media never provided the context of the how small is the percentage of mentally ill population committing violence against someone vs how much violence and inhumanity most of the mentally ill people endure.
