In reply to Yates again, don't tell me it's come to this, posted by trouble on March 27, 2002, at 3:05:16
It's amazing to me how blind some folks are to the torture Andrea Yates has been put through. And those poor, poor children. If someone had paid more attention, they would be alive and she would be getting the help she needs. It's enough to bring me to tears.
I saw her family (mom, brothers, sister) on Good Morning America and they were talking about what a wonderful mom she was, wonderful person. But in some ways I hold them accountable too. Was everyone just blind to the pain she was suffering? To the psychosis and the catatonic states? HOW CAN THAT BE?
It is situations like this that make me want to work harder toward my goal of working in the mental health field (I'm planning to become a pdoc, figure it takes one to know one!). I get so angry by the ridiculous state of affairs we all have to deal with.
Russell Yates should be the one facing life in prison...
