Are They All the Same?

Are the minds of a serial killer and the mind of a mother that kills her child the same? I’ve always wondered that, and I think that they share the same mindset.

I’ve been reading and watching television a lot lately, and listening to the reports about mother’s killing their children, and serial killers possibly having the same mind set. And possibly having the same problems as a child themselves. Do you think it’s possible that some how it’s linked to not getting what they desired and wanted as a child, and or possibly in there own lives right now, that trigger them to do what they are doing? Do you think that a child being bullied as a child or a teen could possibly cause him or her to grow up and murder? I do, i think it’s all connected in a way. I also believe that parents that push their children to hard can cause their children to do these things. I believe that a mother being jealous of the child can trigger some past experiences and make her want to harm the child or resent her child more, the way that she was in the past. I believe that the violence that man displays in a relationship is connected to violence in his home as a child, and the way that he saw his parents act. Parents call it tough love, but other people would refer to it as psychological abuse. If your father calls you a low life nothing and says that your never going to amount to anything in life, he’s thinking that you are going to finally go out and make something out of yourself. And most of the time they would try, and most often they fail. They end up in prison, jail, or committing suicide, because they can’t handle the pressure of trying to live up to the expectations that their father put forth on them while growing up.

I don’t think that anyone should treat their child like that, but that is the way the society thinks it should be now days, and it makes me sick because i could never treat my child that way. My mother treated me that way and I’m just now getting my life together at the age of 24 with a 1 year old to support. And i’m going to do what I can to make sure that she makes it in life without hurting her or treating her that way.

    Evil is evil, all we can do is protect our children and teach them how to protect themselves. Most of all love them dearly

    It’s a harsh world, and if people or shall I say women, think that raising a child is going to be a burden, they may want to look into protection or abstinence. There are no accidents!

    raising a child is the hardest thing yet most rewarding thing i’ve ever had the blessing of experiancing. i do believe in being tough on your child but not to go as far as phisical abuse. i have felt like my daughter needed to be slapped but i would never beat her up or anything. self control no matter have hard things get.
