it makes you wonder how much spiritual structure there is for some of these kids

EXACTLY. You never hear of this crap from Christian families. Spare the rod, spoil the child. Period.

Sorry, the case I cited above in #34 was a wonderful Christ-centered family who raised three other kids without a problem but had one bad seed. Psychiatric problems are not just a case of sparing the rod. Did you read the whole article? MRIs can visualize deficits in these kids’ brains. They’re actually not formed right.

Yes, mental illness never strikes Christian families. /sarcasm

I would disagree and I would also offer that had this article never been printed in the NY Times we would never have heard of Michael or the scrutiny being given to this type of uncontrolled behavior.

Nothing was said about their christian background, or lack of, since it had no relevance to the problem........

Christian families are no more isolated from the behavior problems of their children as non-christian.......

If you would have read the article in its entirety you would have found that the behavior of Michael is far beyond the capacity of any loving family such as his to create the monster that he has become.......and will likely continue to be.
