[PODCAST] r/Confession I Nearly Killed My Psychopath Child

I wonder if the kid was an reincarnation of a previous killer. It’s possible that after being beaten then being isolated afterwards could of changed his behavior. He literally tasted his own medicine. Honestly, the parents ended with the worst luck with a first child and having the hopes of having your first child in general is supposed to be a happy moment in a parents life. I know I’m not a parent, but observing as the youngest sibling in my family, expectations are not as high compared to when given to my eldest brother. Luckily, none of my siblings afterwards had to achieve so high in order to get noticed, but you learn that you get parented differently with age gap and oh boy did the kids have huge age gaps. After talking to my partner, he shared his thoughts: This happened around the 70’s, parenting was different and maybe 2 weekend of therapy was probably not enough for the boy. I’m addition, the parents did their own house repairs, painting and barricading with doors. It’s possible to have had lead poising since popcorn designs were a thing. In addition, early isolation probably didn’t help the boy understand why he was kept away from his parents. Another thing could of happen was the boy got some type of damage before being born and that could of caused how he came to the world.

This is the story of my daughter!! The only difference is that she delighted in using social services to the fullest. I never laid a hand on her because I was afraid that I’d be in jail and my son would be alone with her. My son and I were finally able to leave Wisconsin and escape when she was older by hopping from DV shelter to shelter until we were far enough away and felt safer. You go through so much pain trying to figure out why until there is nothing left but fear and survival for the “normal” child. Thank you for sharing. I’ve never heard about anyone else with this situation not counting movies. My omg moment was with “the good son” with McCullough culkin

Honestly? I personally think the only major wrong move op and his wife did was not kick their son out the moment their daughter was born. They knew how he was. They've seen the way he's treated animals and other people. If they'd gotten to her too late she might not be alive now.

I sorta feel bad for the son... I don't know what to feel tbh...

I might get hated for this but I find those cases very fascinating and would've loved to talk with once ngl

I blame everyone in this story, and yet I think none of them are at fault.

It is driving me crazy wondering what became of him. Wish we knew his name so we could see if he became a serial killer. Probably.

That kid was literally chara. In my eyes, they protected their daughter.

I watched a youtube video of a Ted talk of Daniel Amen. Hes a psychiatrist who encourages brain scans because some behavioral problems like these are cysts in the brain causing ppl to behave like this and that therapy and medication dont work in these cases. I recommend people watch it to maybe shed some light as to why the son was acting thaway. Also its sad to think that if brain scans were a thing back then, their lives would be so different

Whoa...I’m not sure I have words for this one. This was a huge fear of mine when our kids were born. I just can’t imagine.
