My cousin is Beautiful, caring, funny and so so loving.. I will always remember the times we spent together.. hanging out at school, having sleepovers, I miss her and love her with all my heart.. R.I.P. June

-June was like a DAUGHTER to me. She was one of the most intelligent, beautiful, kind-hearted peaople you'd ever want to meet. (...granted; she grew up 'early' for her age; she was a GOOD daughter... her MOTHER was my best-friend.) -FORGIVENESS might be 'called-for'; ...but KARMA is a M-er F-er. -May you rest in PEACE, June, and may GOD have MERCY on his SOUL.

Dear Mick, You are not responsible for your son's action. I do believe that the whole system as structured is bad for everyone's mental health. I do not want to comment on what went on behind closed doors, it is so subjective. I do know that most parents know nothing about parenting. Even blaming your ex is not the full reason that your son was so full of anger, fear and too much feeling.....the destructive kind of feeling. Alot of unintended things including parents, schools, culture, courts etc. make a person into someone like your son. He is a product of an environment that I am glad I was not exposed to. My parents and community were screwed up enough 50 years ago. I guess things are still the same or worse.

Not making excuses for what my son is being accused of, but he is a perfect example of all that is wrong when the wrong parent gets custody in a bad divorce. All the Massachusetts judges cared about, was how much money I made, not the welfare of him.
