So sad.

This mother got life in prison when her child died under similar circumstances. Of course, she looks different than the mother pictured above. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/vegan-couple-serve-life-sentences-starving-baby-death-court-rules-article-1.957707

The kid is only 11 months old. He probably hasn’t been on solid foods all that long. It seems like dad intervened relatively promptly to me. He may also have wanted to try to maintain an amicable co-parenting relationship..

I can’t find the studies now, but I believe being obsessed with food is common whenever anyone isn’t getting enough calories for any reason. Even if the deficit is very small, suddenly the person wants to be a chef, wants to manage an apple orchard....it shows up in all sorts of ways.

I’ve grown apart from many friends, but if Donald Trump went after any one of them, I’d be on their side. Probably fiercely.

Middle Eastern one one side, Catholic on all sides, and my Assyrian Catholic family knows how to hold a grudge. I’m been trying to cure myself of this, but now I’m considering accepting it as part of my culture.

At the moment, I think he could go after just about anyone and the majority of his supporters would take his side. I can’t think of a single person they would rally behind over him. Perhaps if Ronald Reagan rose from the grave.

I like her, both the way she looks and what I know of her personality (I never watched The View or whatever talk show she was on). I struggle to see how everyone seems to readily accept that he’s right, she really is a hideous old hag, but the more reasonable people will say she’s entitled to dignity anyway.

OMG, Jim cannot be challenged, even a little bit. Lisa is so deferential to him, but whenever she disagrees with him, or even asks a question that could be interpreted as mildly challenging, he loses it.

Have you read Popular Crime by Bill James? He theorized that it was an intruder who was deliberately trying to frame Patsy.

Yes. I never watched the show, because it seemed like a modern day version of the Dionne quintuplets. But I admit I was fascinated, and did watch clips from The Soup and interviews. She was always controlling of what they said, and I can’t imagine much has changed.

Agreed. She live with her mother for what, two decades? She already served her time.

She did it at least in part for the same reasons any sex offender does what they do. To degrade. They say it isn’t about sex, it’s about power, and that’s absolutely clear here. She is exactly the same as any other sex offender.
