In no way was I judging peaceful children for living with their parents. I'm sorry that I commented on this story. I think Rubicon is right -- all we can offer the parents is our understanding and our silence.

I don't think any of these threads are suitable for this type of discussion, these comments are not as bad as why is in the villages news, how ever, everyone should remember,
There but for the Grace of God go I. I see the articles in the paper and wonder why these adult children have to live with their parents, it is sad. These are not the venues for these discussions. No I'm not a holy roller I have alway felt live and let live myob. Works pretty good. |

All too often we want to delude ourselves into thinking, that just because our kids turned out great...we're great parents. Which of course, doesn't explain the many times two or more siblings turn out so very different...even having been raised the exact same. Although I consider myself extremely fortunate to have children that are doing excellent, I am also smart enough to know that parents often get too much credit...as well as too much blame. |

Adult children, some even into their sixties, who are drug/alcohol addicted/dependent, convicted felons and the like living with ma and/or pa are the bane of many 55 and over communities these days, not just TV. Even communities which are quite restrictive suffer these malfeasors because their parents allow them to live with them as "caregivers" - give me a break.

I have met other Villager adult children who have many admirable qualities and are living at home. Marquis Who's Who nominated me to 24 of their different publications from 1992 through 2004. That was while I was living at home working on my 224 613 Project with four degrees and winning often in my efforts internationally to get practical materials into libraries of all kinds for survivors/victims of crimes. I am listed in 14 of these various publications and all of this very hard work was done while living with my parents who admittedly have been wonderful putting up with me and my hobby. I am still fighting for these survivors/victims of crimes with respect to practical information. I have probably done more for survivor/victims of crimes with respect to access to practical information than several working people combined because I do not have to get any approval from some University Committee to do anything nor answer to stockholders or whatever kind of organizational oversight. I do have to answer to any kind of governmental entities that do keep track of my efforts. All activists do have to abide by the various laws in their countries. |

We are blessed in the villages to have law and order. If we suspect wrong doing and it is reported I am confident it will be investigated.

Hmmm As a matter of fact all the people I know who possess those same traits admire that man. There is hope. |

This is a very difficult situation to be in for the parent's and for the Assaulter. He may want to stop his bizarre behaviour but doesn't know how, he has no known alternative to the life he has been living. As mentioned before, judging is wrong, understanding and silence is the path to take for the parents who are mainly victims here. In my humble opinion this guy needs a intervention in his life. He needs an alternative route presented before he hurts himself or someone else even worse. He may want relief worse than we can even imagine. Pray for them all.
