[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gypsy had her teeth removed, her salivary glands removed, a feeding tube inserted into her stomach, her head shaved, was tied to her bed, was regularly beaten, was not allowed to go to school or have any friends, was alienated from her father and extended family, was regularly drugged by her mother so she eventually was addicted to opioids so that she would remain compliant. There is more.

Gypsy killed her abuser, her lifelong abuser, just like some woman do when their husband’s beat them. Except in this case, Gypsy was a child, with no agency, no ability to leave. WTAF was she supposed to do.

I cannot believe that anyone would judge Gypsy for what she did. If this was Ruby Frankie’s kid who killed her to escape the abuse or one of the Turpin kids who killed their parent in order to get free, would you be so judgmental? She served her time. Get over it. [/quote]
+1 Gypsy probably recognized that her mom's antics would kill her (maybe not purposely, but with all the crap she was forced to take? yes) eventually and killing mom was the only way out. She did attempt to get help multiple times only for her not to be believed and returned to her mother to be beaten ruthlessly and the leash to be further tightened. Also, mom had power of attorney and told people that Gypsy was mentally incapable, so Gypsy was not believed even more.[/quote]
