I am sorry. I do understand. We buried my dad today. He went through all the stages of Alzheimer’s. While he didn’t do sexually inappropriate things he was clearly not in control of any of his actions, from the first year we noticed and for the final seven years of his life. Their judgment and inhibitions are gone. They need total supervision at all times and the environment has to be safe. The decline is very sad. I hated it. Now we must go through it all again with mom, who is half way down the sad path of decline herself.
I don’t for one second condemn this molesting man unless it can be proven he does not have any dementia. It is not his fault. We must keep these people safe from themselves and keep others safe from them. We must care for our elders better than we do.
You don’t have a clue do you. Some people are mentally competent to the day they die even into their hundreds, while others live a life of mental uncertainty as early as their 60’s. These poor old people live their lives day to day, not remembering the day before and locked in childhood memories.
How absolutely ignorant you are. Apparently you’ve never had the blessing of being in the presence of a very healthy older person, both mentally and physically. The key word in your flippant comment, is ‘some’. Some are, some aren’t.
Not sure why you feel the need to be rude, guess it’s just the ‘season’.
Welcome to Free Republic!
Lord, I apologize too. I laughed.
Lock this pervert up and forgetaboutit. Guessing he’s done it before.
Those are your words and as you said, the operative word is some. Your comment about locking him up because he he’s done it before is just as you said, nothing but a guess. So if your dad has a senior moment I guess am sure you will feel the same way as in, locking him up.
Why are you playing word games? Yes, IF my Dad did such a vile act like that, he should be locked up. No fears though, he wouldn’t.
You don’t know if the man has done this before, neither do I. However, you are aware of the concept of those who suffer from such an infliction to be prone to be repeat offenders.
What is your deal, is this your Daddy??
Nope, my daddy died 20 years ago mentaly healthy, mom is 92 and very healthy mentally and physically.
Others are not so lucky. You do know that when dementia sets in, anything they do is not there fault. Why were two young girls in his house anyway, they were not relatives. Who was taking care of this old man if he had to wear a diaper, why was he not being supervised?
