[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]

Completely agree. I only watched the show  as teen DD asked me to. However, the level of abuse was horrific.

Plus DeeDee did not remove Gypsy from her  grandfather’s home straight after she was informed of the sexual abuse / but waited until after she had an argument with her father. DeeDee also murdered her step mother.

However, agree with apps that Gypsy is likely still manipulative and prone to fairy tale delusional thinking. She was not going to tell her father and step mom about the rushed wedding to Ryan until the prison guard told her she really had to. Also she said she didn’t tell her family about this relationship because she wanted to keep her great joy private while I suspect it was more related to keeping dad and step mom very invested in helping with her parole process and in believing she was coming to live with them after parole.

None the less, Gypsy’s  level of articulate self Awareness and potential For growth is astonishing. She never attended school
Due to her mother’s horrific abuse but managed to graduate HS in jail.
