[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, wow.  That is a terrible burden for her to bear.  It is not her fault and, really, she shouldn't try to take responsibility for it but it will be hard for her to not try to do it.  I hope she gets some help dealing with all of this.[/quote]

Yes, my heart goes out to this young woman who came forward to share more. There really wasn't much any of these people could do to prevent this. As crazy as he sounded, there wasn't anything reportable unless he shared an actual plan to kill the parents. Hopefully something she shares will help another family prevent this sort of tragedy-maybe they will read the story and recognize their own kid/friend. Who knows?

Interesting to note the boy had friends there and he shared these views at school so there is the potential other young people may share his views. It sounds like this is the type of school where there are enough adults that they will tune into this. I hope so and I hope the other students get the support they need as they process this. It's a very small school so likely everyone knew eachother.[/quote]

These kids have enough going on in their lives w/o stigmatizing them and their school.  The boy was mentally unstable and he said inappropriate things in class - that seems clear.  [/quote]
