My heart goes out to the victim’s family and the narcissistic man’s family who did by see this coming. I advocate for actual THERAPISTS in every single classroom in America. Parenting does not come with a manual. Many women have babies before they even turn 18. What kind of system is the government because babies raising babies teaching them and PUTTING them on ssi for the money. BREAK THE FRICKING CYCLE! Adk mr how

Many women have babies before 18? You mean children? For ssi that’s for disabled and blind? How many disabled blind children actually have babies by choice?
