Sure there were options. With money - she had options that many don’t who have children with problems.
She could have hired round the clock care with that kind of money.
She could have him put away.
She could have done more to protect those guns.
If you have a child and you live in fear - and many do who have autistic children, etc. then don’t give them access to guns!!!!
People have to hid utensils from autistic children. Take knobs of stoves.
Giving him free access to guns when she knew he had severe problems - IS NUTS

“He was very sensitive to touch and didn’t want to be touched,” Collins said of Adam. “That used to hurt her. She would get upset about that.”
Asked about the Asperger’s experience, the person close to Peter Lanza said Adam’s father found it challenging.
“put him away” This isn’t the 1800’s and besides, put him away where? There isn’t a place. What do you think would have happened while she was attempting for months or years to request the probate court to commit him? Huh? You don’t know what you are suggesting.
What kind of “round the clock help” a cook, a maid an armed security guard?
get real.
