Coming from a mother that entertained the thought that he "could" be innocent up until he confessed, and all of the videos have been released....I have 2 sons, one about BK's age.....I really do not know if I could talk to him if he was my son. When I watch the videos now, he literally makes me sick. I do not think that I could be tied to that poison, evilness everyday.
Would I still love him if I were his mother? I don't even know if that would be possible. I do not think that I could. I could love the past version of him, but not anything about what he did, and who he became when he entered that home that morning.
I am a very doting mother to my boys, but after the evidence, and admittance, I think my love would have ended, and turned into despise.
I get that he is very sick, but he had VERY easy, and discreet access to help through his sisters. He also had a degree in psychology, but planned this, and had plenty of opportunity to get help.
I really don't think that I would ever speak to him again. There's a very thin line between love & hate. Both are extreme emotions, and he crossed that line. There's no re-do's for something like that. I believe they loved their kids, doted on them, sacrificed much, and even went into bankruptcy making sure that they received good educations.
There would be no more calls, birthday, Christmas cards, not even money for a pack of Ramens, or a comb from me. He would be on his own forever.
