and we care what she says because...
his name and history should be flushed down the drain and treated as if he never existed. referred to as dipshit #2
if needed to be referenced.
everyone should see, that if you do this, you will be forgotten, not martyred.
Time?
I disagree. It’s degrading and serves no purpose to go all “Jerry Springer” on TV and blubber out your sorrows and mistakes.
Folks should stay classy, reserved and show some discretion.
She owes nobody an explanation.
Who gives a sh.. any why should anyone care what she thinks? This being the NY daily news I smell an anti-gun angle, but I don't want to immerse myself in the filth of reading it.
I remember in her Oprah essay she blithely excused herself and claimed she had no idea he was troubled. Then as the essay goes in she mentions his crime and problems at school and STILL tries to excuse herself for not taking any action at all.
She’s a loser and she raised one.
Mom wrote a book, to be released Monday, with profits donated to mental health charities. Why else would people come out of the woodwork except to push a book?
She still sounds in denial even after 17 years, so I can’t imagine there would be much to learn from her book.
A lot of friends of the boys felt that Dylan Klebold was a follower, and think Eric Harris was the driving force. On the one hand, they’d known Klebold for years. OTOH, some of them had been friends with Klebold for over a decade, while Harris was the new guy. Who knows.
I do remember after a reading binge on Columbine that I thought Klebold’s parents did a better job by him than Harris’ did, but at this point specifics escape me. Giving the book proceeds for mental health issues is a nice gesture. Maybe the book will give her some closure.
Is this the mother that was big into the Moms Against Gun Violence group before the murders?
I remember a lot of hushed talk in the day that she, or the other mother, was into that group but facilitated the boys getting the guns.
The obvious connection was that they assisted the kids’ actions to further their gun control aims.
By sixteen even good parents cannot supervise their children every second. You have to put in all you can to your children by then, and still keep talking to them, keep up with their schools, but there is a limit to what you can control. If a 16 year old hides his evil well at home, he is capable of committing it without blame going to his parents.
I don’t know this guy’s story enough to know if she truly is to blame. At least his mom wasn’t a drug addict gang banging ho. There are plenty of those kind who abdicated raising their teen sons entirely. And those mothers never get blamed because they are covered by political correctness.
Also, wasn’t bullying a factor here? An entire school filled with responsible adults knew this wasn’t right and allowed this bullying.
I also recall reading that after the attacks and murders, the police went into one of the murders’ bedrooms and found materials for making pipe bombs, among other things...
As a parent, how do you NOT KNOW what your kid is doing in YOUR house?
Sorry if this seems harsh but having a “no go zone” or a “sanctuary room” in your house is negligent, irresponsible, naive and stupid...
She should get some money from Moby moore.
Wasn’t colombine based or influenced by basketball diaries and the kids were video taped saying how they wanted Spielberg to direct the movie about them?
So all of these shootings are just kids living out Hollywood fantasies?
Why do we blame the guns?
If “I didn’t know anything” or “I didn’t do anything” makes a good book, then have at it.
