[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm still dumbfounded how the murderer's parents were not charged i the Sandy Hook shooting. It's infuriating.

These shootings nearly never occur in a vacuum, and both parents are responsible for not taking warning signs seriously.

So many parents abdicate responsibility by thinking their son could never go these lengths. The denial is massive, and I'm sure there are some parents on DCUM who are denial about their kids issues.

The Sandy Hook shooter killed his mother. He had not seen his father in two years. There was no one to charge.[/quote]

Was there any evidence that the dad had tried to get help for his son, during that time? He had massive mental health issues for far beyond those 2 years.[/quote]

The Sandy Hook shooter was an adult. Try getting mental health treatment for an uncooperative adult and come back to us with all the answers.[/quote]

There were many years between the divorce and Adam becoming an adult.[/quote]

Okay, well getting mental health treatment for a minor teen and child is beyond difficult as well.  When you can get an appointment (which the wait time is months/years in some cases), it's with a therapist.  Getting actual medication and getting your minor teen to [i]consume[/i] medication is a struggle.

I'm not absolving Lanza's parents, but I've been through the ringer to get my son diagnosed (bipolar II) and treated.

I know many do not like the answer, but access to guns is the issue that is easiest to control (for minors).  [/quote]
