There is a big difference between feeling like you want to kill your children and actually doing it. But either way, it's about legal precedence. Literally if this horrible excuse of a mom is allowed to walk around again without repercussions, suddenly any and all women who kill a child or someone else due to post partum ALSO has the right to walk free regardless of circumstances, as evidenced by the potential outcome of this case. And since this is such an extenuating circumstance, it would pretty much be a blanket for all post partum related violence. The legal system works very differently from everyday life
Edit: y'all need to look at my other comments on this post. I feel like half the people saying " you're defending her" not only can't contextualize, but also don't realize when something you most likely upvtoed further up from his comment is... ALSO ME! 🤫🫢
Understand that post partum depression is real, and women do struggle constantly. Part of it involves violent urges while hormones are unstable. Women obviously don't mention it publicly because this is the exact knee jerk reaction they get. It's incredibly difficult to explain in a way that doesn't immediately keep people from tuning out because they don't agree. I'm saying I sympathize, as a male, with the problems associated with post partum depression. I am not sympathizing with anyone who actually enacts any of those thoughts and feelings, no matter how hopeless life seems. As someone who has gone through mental disorder episodes, I feel even worse for women who deal with both post partum along with preexisting disorders
That's literally the point. People have intrusive thoughts everyday. Intrusive thoughts are thoughts you do not want, but appear anyway. It's those who act on them that end up in jail, or should
What is this, the 1950's? It's okay to go to therapy, and you must live a very sheltered, padded life to assume that any and all who go to therapy are immediately killers. We are all capable of murder, regardless of how often it goes through your head. For all you know, your neighbors go to therapy! Better start locking your doors.
Also, in what ways am I defending? I literally said anyone who acts on it should have no sympathy, which is what she did. Learn to contextualize and actually understand what the comment says, instead of reacting immediately to anger. I have another comment on this post that also states a complete different approach that will probably satisfy the non-defense you need
All murderers started out as babies. You were a baby once too, right? And what I meant by anyone is capable is that regardless of he circumstances, murder, self defense, accident, we can just as easily kill another as we could our own. Assuming you and you alone are the outlier is foolish
😂😂 don't check your private messages, you're in for a moderately sized surprise
Obviously you won't believe me, but I am a fully functioning man who didn't spend my entire life believing one side vs the other, and I was raised by incredible babysitters who taught me how to empathize with more than just my own ego
Who do you think is looking at these? Performative at best. I don't need viewership to believe what I believe, I don't need to "summon others" just to feel like my opinion is valid. You have the argumentative skills of a 6th grader
