In reply to the discussion: Ex-babysitter: Mother of Newtown School Shooter Warned Me About Him (Never Turn Your Back on Him) [View all]Epiphany4z
(2,234 posts)7. I have said the same thing
about my nephew he is 13 now. I have custody of him since he was 3 months old. He was born in withdraw from heroin and with FAS. You do have to be aware of what he is doing at all times. More for his own safety than anyone else. He just doesn't have the same thought processes or fears as others.
Also on an up note the guy in the above story has raised some nice money to help the survivors.
He says that, rather than feeling helpless, he decided to start a fundraiser to help the children of Newton, especially the ones who will be dealing with post traumatic stress disorder.
