Ughh...that really sucks. Thank you OTW for finding that article! I really feel for the victims involved...who really thought that they were her friends.
Well, I took Psych class last semester (I love it so much that I might major in it!), and perhaps the mother has an early stage of Multiple Personality Disorder?? Maybe not...but I think what she did was extremely off-key...but ALSO, since she was a mother, she would probably be middle-aged. Middle-aged people go through the very well-known "Middle-Aged Crisis," where they go through various symptoms, trying to be young again. Maybe the mother, in a VERY twisted way
, was trying to revert back to young age? This is a VERY strange, crazy case though...seriously, I think she would be well suited to visit a Therapist!
Don't know about getting the $$$ though, but I think that mother was one sick person
...
Personally, I have trusted all the people that I have met online...but they have to EARN my trust first. I can gladly, honestly say that all those GCs that I e-mail with, I would gladly call a real-life friend, whom I can confide in. I also think very highly of those that I post often to. Maybe this isn't the best philosphy--but I think, FIRST you have to earn my trust...SECOND, I will then trust you, until you make me believe otherwise...
PLUS, with the exception of the weirdos recently
, I love all the people of GC! Maybe I'm just too darned-trustworthy, but I really feel that GC is such a warm online community
.
P.S. Though I am very wary about giving out personal info and such...have seen those horrible stories out there! And hopefully--nothign ever happens to me or you guys like those poor victims of Kaycee!
