“There are parents who try to bring up their kids in a good way, and try to stop their kid from doing bad things, but it doesn’t always work.”
In this case, a parent. Statistics demonstrate that single mothers are far more likely to produce criminal offspring. She has two children with names different from her own. I doubt it was because she was married twice.
This indicates failing, twice, on her part, even before parenting is involved.
Statistics are, again, that even as a single parent, she made no great effort to raise her thug in a good way, instead seeking more gratification for herself and neglecting her children.
Right now she is experiencing remorse on what she could have done, perhaps on his last day or two, to make her robber son not get shot while robbing. Sorry, too late.
She had at least a dozen years to show him the right way to live. She apparently had other things to do.
But you don’t know if it is a different marriage. You are assuming. Why do you doubt that she might have been married twice? Because she’s Black?
She is grieving. Again, you don’t know what she had done in the years leading up to this. You are assuming.

Bad kids come from families of one and two parents. It may be true that it is higher in single parent, it still doesn’t mean that every single parent has a bad kid.

It still doesn’t excuse the nastiness on this thread. FReepers should be above this.
