I haven’t seen those tests but they certainly do describe Michael very well.
Especially in the financial irresponsibility area.
He mooched off the Schindlers and lived with them until they became afraid of his violent behavior.
They spent years bailing him and Terri out financially.
I bet there isn’t one bit of him that ever reflects on how good they were to him for so long.
No. The only thing he has burned into his brain is that the Schindlers nagged him once too often to keep his promise to provide care and therapy to Terri. He blew sky high. (They think they can date it precisely to February 14, 1993.) He never spoke to them again, never allowed Terri to have therapy again, switched her immediately to DNR -- this was only weeks after getting a huge money award on the promise to take care of her for the rest of his life. In short, he used her to get at them. Can you imagine holding a grudge that long? Having that cold hatred for 12 years? Over money??
I think he was consciously punishing Terri for the initial "haircut" incident that led to their fight in 1990. Why, she defied him! She was asking for it, asking for the punishment he gave her! When he put "I kept my promise" on her grave marker, I'm quite sure he meant, "I told you I'd kill you if you did that, you insubordinate b-word!"
What other promise could he refer to? He trampled his marriage vows, his most sacred promise to God. He almost immediately broke the promises he made to the court in the malpractice case. That's called "fraud on the court." Michael kept no promises. He kept only vindictive grudges.
