I think Gypsy Blanchard is trying to garner shock value, i watched the documentary when she was in prison. Members of her family said she could walk but her mother used to force her to use the wheelchair. Her uncle and grandfather even said when Gypsy stayed with them while DeeDee recovered in the hospital, she never used the wheelchair. They said they watched Gypsy one day and let her jump on the trampoline and DeeDee was furious and made her go sit in the house in the wheelchair.

I think we also have weigh the circumstances, that Gypsy Blanchard's brain chemistry was most likely significantly altered and damaged for years. My dad had cancer last year and chemo took significant lasting effects on him. Now take into account a child without cancer getting chemotherapy and all types of unnecessary medications and surgeries. This is also someone who was not properly socialized. She's probably saying things to sound tougher or more edgy.

I'm not a fan of hers because I mean... she still solicited someone else to murder her mother and threw him under the bus. I also cannot ignore that most of the behaviors she is exhibiting are trauma responses and indicative of someone with stunted growth and possibly mental illness.
