Anyone familiar with this name and case? I binge watched vidoes about it yesterday and it is so schocking. She now got sentenced to 35 years for child abuse, I think. What do you think of it?
I m gonna share a link.

I was not familiar with the case. It seems like it's going to be another rabbit hole for me to explore.

I hate it whenever I hear about children going malnourished.
I used to wonder why there doesn't exist an agency that screens parents and checks in on them at least once during the childs childhood or adolescence. I guess from the governments pov, citizens are their assets. And the wide array of possibilities for their upbringing can create a diversified group of assets. I wonder how much freedom plays into this too, like are we really just free to raise children anyway we see fit? Obviously up to child abuse. But theres alot of cases that go unnoticed. And some people endure it until they become adults and then they go and do other things. Maybe some of them become prison guards or army soldiers etc.

Yes, we unfortunately are. And yes, up to child abuse.

I agree. Probably 99,9%. Because it s tolerated by the State, Government and society in general. Children are the parent's possession, basically.

Yes. This case only got noticed because of social media. Yes and some become psychopaths, murderers and others suicide.

Edit:

What shocked me in those 8 Passengers-Vlogs is that the siblings laugh at eachothers struggles, injuries, pain. There seems to be ZERO empathy. I know this very well from my "family". Making fun of others pain (I was mostly the target, only girl, patriarchic structures) . That s the beginning of sadism imo.

Jeez. I haven't watched the video yet but I might watch later. I just read the Wikipedia page to get a gist of what happened. I prefer not to watch some of these crime videos sometimes because it makes me angry and sometimes can make me feel sick. Especially child abuse cases.

I didn't even think about how many of them become psychopaths/murderers, or commit suicide.

I hope people who've endured this type of abuse can heal and not become sadists, but I know it's a minority amount who will be able to.
The man who held the record for the worlds fastest disarm of a handgun, got that record because as a child he had guns pointed to his head by his father, and he promised himself that nobody else will be able to do that to him. His father was actively trying to make him into a psycopathic murderer, and one time even brought him to a abandoned house where he had a unconscious man next to a hole in the ground of the basement, put a handgun in his hand, and then squeezed his hand in order to force him to pull the trigger and shoot the guy when he woke up. I guess he speculates that his father picked a homeless child predator and told him he had a kid for him and brought him to that house and knocked him out when he got to the basement. He said his father was very charming to the man up until the point of knocking him out.
It sounded like it was generational abuse, that his fathers father did that to him to make him a murderer and so he was continuing the tradition.

Edit: I misremembered the story and remembered as I was typing. The kid (the one who later got the record for fastest disarm) witnessed his father throw a very hard punch at the man, knocking him out into the hole. Then the man soon woke up and was aware of what was happening.
