If she couldn't properly secure the weapon, then she shouldn't have had a gun in the home. Totally irresponsible.
Exactly, that's the part that got me smh!!!!
Exactly. My thoughts are they know exactly how he got the gun but they don't want to say because understandably, it would incriminate them further. So when she asked if it was locked, they all just nodded and didn't wanna get into it. If this gun was locked in a biometric safe, it would've never happened. Combo/key locks are fine if that's all you can afford but kids are smart and can figure things out much better than you'd think.
Not to mention she taught her child to hate another race and then gave him a gun to attack the other race.
m
Okay, so if their kid is this unpredictable and unstable then *why is there a gun in the house that he could access*????
Lack of personal responsibility
Why is there a gun in any house? Why is there a gun on the planet? Guns only use is to kill, in a civilized society there would be no guns. Obviously humans have not become civilized no matter what they think.
⚫
*why? because the parents are maggots that taught their child to hate white people.
Like a lot of other parents, they simply don't care.
The kid has mental health issues and a violent history, but he accidentally knocked the phone out of her hand, huh? That’s why kids are out of control, Parents are liars 🤷♂️
She wasn’t there yet said he knocked it out…. Accidentally wtf
@@Arizona_lilly True and the Grand father tried to use the Race Card in his interview. No one in that family wants to take Accountability! 🤨
Especially them white kids, they try to kill everybody in school an they do it all over school, don’t they white people,
Classic fetal alcohol syndrome.
@@ianwalton284 ...and the truth shall set you free...
“I am willing to take responsibility”
*takes no responsibility*
Outraged! How dare this mother blame the victim for being shot. If mom hadn’t been so careless with a loaded gun none of this would have happened.
Seriously, she's willing to take full responsibility as long as she can blame everything else under the sun, whether it be the victim herself or her son's ADHD or the school. And they're claiming they don't know how the boy got the gun when it was "securely locked away". Sounds like she's covering for herself because the gun was actually not locked away and easily accessible.
Exactly! The gun was obviously, locked, stocked and barreled!!!
Exactly! The gun wasn't secured if the child was able to get it plain and simple..fault on the parent and also the school for not acting when they were warned 3 times?! Omg this poor teacher😟
This was a hate crime. The kid shot his white teacher over perceived racism, just as he was taught to 'eradicate' racism in his 'Critical Race Theory' hate indoctrination.
You guys do not understand nuanced answers. She didn’t blame the teacher. She didn’t blame the teacher one time. Only thing she did was explain why maybe the kid was angry at the teacher. That’s called a new wants explanation. I really wish people could understand details. We as humans have language to explain the nuance of situation, we aren’t cave people who just grunt to tell the basics.
Wow, this interview made me angry, the mom totally discounted her sons’ behavior just because he has ADHD. Like come on, I know a ton of people with that and not 1 person is violent and not 1 would ever have brought a gun to school and shot their teacher. This is much deeper then that and I can’t believe the mom isn’t seeing that. And for the grandpa to bring up race is ridiculous, he said that if the teacher was his color and the student was white it wouldn’t be “hyped” up as much. No sir, the reason this is so hyped up is a 6 year old got his hands on a gun and shot his teacher! A 6 year old!!!! That is why it is so hyped up!!! Stop minimizing and justifying his behavior!!!! That teacher will forever have health issues and those precious kids and teacher will be forever scarred from the memories of that day!
Absolutely ❤🎉
Yea it was blowing up HUGE on all news outlets before we even knew the kids race.
Speaking as someone who was diagnosed with ADHD as a child, you’re 100% correct. She seems to have the mentality that her baby can do no wrong and he’s just an innocent child. The problem is that at 6 years old he’s old enough to know right from wrong. Not to mention the fact that he was threatening other students with said gun! I can’t stand the way they’re trying to play it off like this. I promise you as someone with adhd I never once thought about harming my teachers or anyone else when I was in school
Up until this interview, I vaguely thought the little boy was white, since I hadn’t seen anywhere reporting his race through all this. I’d seen photos of the teacher, but never the kiddo or his family. The attention definitely wasn’t a race thing, it was an age thing. This wasn’t a 15 year old gang member shooting someone in an urban center (shocking though that still is), this was a 6 year old shooting his teacher in elementary school. Insane.
I have ADHD, my husband has ADHD. I’ve known my daughter has ADHD since she was 4- it’s pretty severe and obvious, not just hyperactivity. It is absolutely bonkers to blame ADHD for a little kid bringing a gun to school and shooting his teacher with it. That’s not a thing. Impulsivity, sure, but it’s not like he found the teacher’s gun in her desk, he had to get his hands on it at home, pack it in a hidden way, mention or show it to several kids at school (I don’t recall which), re-hide it, retrieve gun from hidden area, shoot teacher. That’s a lot of steps for it to be brushed off as the actions of an impulsive 6 year old. I hope he is getting the help he obviously needs.
I do know plenty of people with ADHD that are violent, however I’ve always been suspicious that they may have some other undiagnosed issues going on. When kids are “out of control” they get referred to a school psychologist and sure they’ll get ADHD, maybe Autism etc however all parents should not stop there, but most do. Advocate for your child to have a medical assessment via pediatric development or neuropsychology for example. It’s the difference between a 30min assessment with a busy school psychologist that has a diagnosis based on classroom needs vs a 4-8 hour assessment that can also result in needing more assessments and tests. Very thorough
As a mother, she took 0 responsibility for the situation. He never should've had ACCESS to the gun in the first place, regardless of anything else. Neglectful and irresponsible af. Her claiming she takes responsibility then blaming others for the shooting is ridiculous.
Yes, ridiculous and TYPICAL.
And yet, she's the one in jail and going to court. So it sounds like she is.
The lack of accountability makes me so angry! They are trying to blame the teacher and the school for their own lack of responsibility!
Straight out of the 'Critical Race Theory' playbook. The kid was just "eradicating" perceived racism, just as he was taught to do. You have to remember that all white people are racist, so if they want to 'eradicate' racism they have to eradicate white people.
I didn’t blame the teacher whatsoever. I hate that anytime someone gives a nuance answer there’s a group of people who don’t understand nuance.
yes, there is NO excuse for what he did to an upstanding teacher! This mother is horrid.
Most modern "ADHD" and "autism" diagnosis are really misdiagnosed fetal alcohol syndrome. This was so the dishonest parents don't have to admit they caused the injury to their child with their drugging and drinking.
How is it shocking about the charges when your crazy ass son shot someone plus your trying to make it seem it’s not your fault,your a horrible lazy mom you could of locked up the gun fr instead of lying cause he wouldn’t have got the gun if it was locked
Girl, bye. After they blatantly lied about saying they have no idea how he got the gun then immediately confessed that they had talked to him, they lost ALL credibility for me. I don't believe a word that family or the lawyer is saying.
"I'm sorry that you got hurt." Gimme a break.
Maybe she isn't sorry
Does that feel better? 🙄
@@ashleydaniel3215 what
At least she’s sorry. You can’t get an apology out of most people.
Almost expected the next words out his mouth to be "that's what you get for being racist white devil woman".
@@ashleydaniel3215 She definitely isn't sorry for the teacher. She is sorry for herself and the negative attention she's now getting because of her parental neglect. And yeah, what nerve to dismiss it by saying 'sorry you got hurt'. That teacher could have been KILLED. Any one of those children could have been KILLED. That teacher will have health problems her whole life.
I felt the teacher was right in her pursuit of recompense, and the law for holding the parents responsible.
As a teacher, and as a parent of two elementary kids, this interview is infuriating. I’m infuriated with the school’s response to the multiple requests for help and concerns about this child having a gun, and the idea that this lawyer and mom straight up bullshit lied about not knowing where he got that gun. This kid also preciously brought ammunition for the gun to school. That should have been a huge wake up call for the parent.
The school is also awful! He strangled and choked his kindergarten teacher and this first grade teacher had concerns and they freaking ignored her!
The fact she wore a T-shirt dress while being 18 months pregnant makes sense now that I have heard her speak. They act as if the child slapped the teacher. He blasted a bullet through her hand and abdomen. She should be charged with attempted murder after the fact.
You lose all credibility with your statement of “18 months pregnant”.
@@sarahdeshay1394 I'm pretty sure that was a joke about her being overly fat while pregnant. Tbh she does look closer to 20 months pregnant.
She looks so calm about the whole situation. She is clearly guilty of having a gun where a 6 year old had access to it and to bring it to school with him.
The narrative Deja is spinning explains the students behavior perfectly.
100%
Yes!
Exactly! Poor parenting is the reason that child has access to a gun! These dummies brought out the race card because they think the African-American community is going to support this bullshit? If this is what you're thinking, you're WRONG Deja! You weren't being a parent AT ALL, and we'd like to know why?
So does the Critical Race Theory doctrine of 'eradicating racism".
I hear nothing but excuses, racism and narcissistic projectioning to validate the parents and child's behavior.
What I didn't hear is true remorse for what has been done.
Very true, no real remorse.
100% very well said!
She is setting up the contrition for the court to hear before hand so that when she plays it in court it can be referred to as proof.
agree.. just wondering how the 6 year old kid can get the gun and shoot to teacher. i want the answer from his parents.
Because these people have deep hatred for white people
Well you most certainly should!!! Totally IRRESPONSIBLE of a parent to not secure a gun and then let their 6 year old child leave the house with a loaded weapon???
You could say the same of the US government and the lack of firearms regulation.
Totally agree 👍 how was he able to walk out the house with a gun, with her knowing 🤔 all the issues her child was having, hope the teacher gets the help she needs, and this mother needs some jail time
@@EricHarris-xd1rv not really bud.
@@EricHarris-xd1rv
EXACTLY 💯👍🏽
@@dorothyjelen1046 Yes a very good question. Not making any excuses but absentee fathers are a detriment to society.
Just listening to this interview makes me so mad. There is nothing racial about this. This is a lack of attention from the parents when it comes to that child. At the end of the day it’s the parents responsibility. The school teachers are helping to educate the child, that’s what they’re there for at the end of the day. The disingenuous apology to the teacher and making it a racial thing is a cop out and it’s disgusting. The parents and the great grandfather are the ones who failed the child not the school.
the only thing that's potentially racial about this is maybe the teacher being white had something to do with why the kid shot her
Actually it is racial, in the sense that black parenting skills in our time are garbage. Black culture is partly to blame.
I agree with you regarding the child's family failing him. Because I am VERY familiar with Newport News Public Schools emotional manipulation tactics, schools in this district are not safe havens as many people perceive. The #1 tool used to control teachers, students, parents, and administrators, Dr. Parker, the former superintendent, was fired, is EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION.
Hmmm....$40 million dollars sounds pretty good to a bunch of "thieving insiders" to get a piece of the money pie. Newport News Public Schools has always had students at the high and middle school levels bring guns to Schools in order to protect themselves from bullies.
This is the same district who hired a GANG LEADER as a security guard who commanded gang violence within the school setting and community. He worked with the district for years before being arrested because of homicides he was connected to in the community.
Newport News Public Schools is corrupt and unsafe. Please belive me.
Its 100% racial. This was a hate crime
i think this is the complete wrong case to be dragging in ADHD or race into the conversation. i have ADHD and yes there is a spectrum and impulsivity does play a role in poor decision making. but the intent to hurt someone does not stem from the disorder, the lack to rationalize or make better decisions is what does. and i know im only speaking from personal experience but from research and talking to medical professionals i’ve never heard of violence being a symptom.
i don’t think race is the reason this incident is being “pumped” up either but for the fact it is almost unheard of for a child that young to shoot someone let alone to even really have idea of what that action is, how to carry it out, or that this is how to handle unfavorable situations etc. it’s the shock factor that has everyone locked in because we’re use to a certain image of perpetrator and a child doesn’t usually fit that mold.
I agreed with you 100%
This mother will have problems with her son until he's an adult...she quite lax about the ordeal...he's been a problem way before the shooting..it just escalated to this..
Especially out or all the white kill that shoot uo school an kill people at least no body got kill
ADHD is the politically correct way of saying 'fetal alcohol syndrome" and 'fetal drug syndrome'.
I agree with ALL of your statement. The school system = No accountability with descalating the previous behavior of the child.
The mother= No accountability all around.
The granddaddy= No accountability and the audacity to think the attention of this is based on racism. Yes, in society it exists but don't throw around that term loosely. It devalues the import relevance in REAL situations. I didn't like that at all. He shot a teacher and could have hurt other children and himself.This is sad all around.
What a disgusting family lol! "I'm sorry you got hurt ... I'm more sorry my grandson had to go through this"
Not to mention all the kids in that classroom that will have a lifetime of PTSD now. Probably never even entered their zombie lizard brains.
Man you white peoples are the biggest hypocrites in the world all the mass shooters in school church ,mall 85% are from white peoples but you and your people always talking like your life is so holy y’all have so much blood on your hands so you should be quiet.
What? 🤯
I noticed that she couldn't make eye contact at one point when they were talking about the gun being inaccessible to him. My blood is boiling after listening to these ridiculous people.
I don't believe her for one second. Stick her in a prison cell with her son, and let her deal with him.
It is also pretty sick that they feel race plays a role in this. Are they really that delusional that they think the youngest school schooler ever would have gotten less attention had he been black? Sir, trust me. The whole country was disgusted before they even knew who your family was.
This part! Before anyone knew any details we were outraged that this was even a possibility. We didn’t care what color their skin was then and we don’t care now. I also have adhd and I promise you I never ONCE thought about harming anyone when I was feeling ignored in school. If I felt ignored I just decided to make it work, I didn’t even come close to thinking about hurting someone. Another thing I’d like to know is if she says the weapon was secured then how did the child get it? Doesn’t sound very secured to me!
Yes she said he knocked phone while he was shrugging and teacher says he was suspended for slamming her phone to the ground
Every time her or her family spoke I got so pissed. I have 4 kids, 3 boys ages 13 12 and 11. NEVER would they get ahold of the gun my husband has in the house. Does she not realize her son could've shot himself too? And the AUDACITY for them to make it about race and say it was blown up. Tf, I am so pissed. Send that whole family to jail!
@@MamaTach925sending a 6 yr old to jail is WRONG
I do not care what the crime is
@@thinking1085 sounds like arrogance to me. arrogance is never a good place to start. it is a great time to bring in professional help.
Wow. That mother seems to be totally disconnected from reality.
no wonder her child was almost a murderer at 6 years old
@@lizardqueen7052 Yes and no doubt this will continue....types like this grow up to be serial killers.
As a former primary teacher for 29 years it makes me so mad to hear the Mom say that her child was ignored, and Grandpa plays the race card. I have had to tell parents many times that their child has some serious behavior problems that we need to address . I was told by one parent it was because of his astrological sign. That child is now in prison for life for double murder. Teachers can only do so much with the students in their class. Honestly, in some cases you can’t make a silk purse,,,,,,, and in some cases the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Prayers that the boy gets help and continued prayers for the young teacher that she recovers completely,mentally and physically. Chris Starr
I’m sick of it! I’m black and I tell people all the time it’s your child not these teachers! I was raised in the south and had good teachers & parents who kept us in check. I went to college on a full scholarship because my teachers cared about me because I cared about my future! These parents are failing their children not the teachers!
Exactly, that RACE CARD pissed me off. No accountability what so ever and that makes me mad 😡!
Lol do you happen to remember what sign he was? Gotta make sure I don't date one!
@@daniella8400 Skin color doesn't make someone bad or good. Don't fall into the racist mindset.
@@sandrasnow3569 huh?
Special needs or NOT, I’ve seen so many parents do this gentle parenting BS that common manners and respect often gets overlooked bc of their “special needs”. There’s honestly a lack of care, attention, monitoring. We’re dealing with a epidemic of social media parenting. If you are involved and focused on your child when they are home from school and leaving out to school, there is NO F***IN way your 6yr old child leaves the home with a gun. Stop being negligent parents and wanting the teachers to do all the work! All teachers aren’t good teachers BUT the amount of unruly undisciplined kids causing terror in school and forcing teachers to deal is unbelievable and not worth the money or mental distress.
Exactly
If I were a teacher, that comment about being shot by my student being covered under “workman compensation”, would make me quit right away!!
The ability to plan and execute a revenge mission esp. involving a gun is not an okay response for anyone, let alone a 6yo. How are they even trying to defend ANY of this?!
If this child is to be kept in an environment with these adults I fear the kind of adult he'll be. Imagine how he'll react to his first rejection from a partner, or he gets into his first real argument will he try use weapons again to resolve such?
They say if the races were switched that it would be a different story lol everyday kids are doing this LOL they aren’t
Yes --- I do not think there is any therapy that is going to make this kid right in the head. He is a danger to society.
Are you kidding me, this kids either gonna be a casualty or a convict before he reaches 18!
Don't know why he had access to a locked gun. Told the reporter to ask the child directly. 😅
I love all the BS going around in this interview given by these people saying they didn't even bring up how he got the gun as if it wasn't the most important thing here.
I was saying from the first day this was a 'Critical Race Theory" inspired crime. The kid was taught all white people are racist and he was supposed to 'eradicate' racism.
Lol, they're making this a race issue. Race is the last thing on anyones mind. We want to know how he got the gun. As a big sister to a kid with adhd, I can tell you he was the sweetest kid in class and got along with everyone. He never harmed anyone and was quite sensitive to seeing other kids hurt or bullied. This horrible mom is just using her son's disability as a cop out for her failure in doing her part to make sure the gun was actually secure, which I guarantee it wasn't. Watch that come out in court. Parents of student school shooters need to be held responsible. The parents of the Oxford HS shooters are being charged, why should she be the exception?
It is a race issue in this case.
Oh, I thought it was a white kid. I said the same thing when I thought he was a white kid. need to lock his ass up and the mother. And the teacher is a wonderful teacher for making sure the other kids didn’t get hurt. We need teachers like that a real hero. Most people will run out there and save their own self
It is a race issue. They hate caucasians, listen to what the grandfather said and what the 6 year old said, “I shot the bi*ch dead”. Evil hateful people
How did the kid know there was a gun to get?
@@sweetinfidel1320 obviously he had seen his mom with it.
I take that back. It could also be that the gun was just never locked somewhere away from his reach and he stumbled upon it, rummaging through his mom's things.
This interview makes me sick. The leaps and bounds they had to make to justify his behavior. "We dont know how he got the gun but it was locked up we swear" You have failed your child. You will continue to fail him by doing interviews like this blaming everything and everyone but yourselves for putting a clearly mentally unwell child in such close proximity to a gun. This kid needs more than Uno, he needs some serious help.
You right she sure, now you know how we feel when all them white kids kill peoples, it least nobody got kill like the 100 of kids that white kids do
Like, as if the mom is a hero 😂
The ONLY question that matters is, "how did he get the gun?" I've yet to see ADHD or behavioral issues shoot someone. She has to take responsibility not just bc the boy is her son, but bc that gun was obviously unsecured in her home. There is no other way he would've gotten his hands on it. I guarantee that if the father or even grandfather were the owner of that gun, it would've been the lead in this report.
Amen!!!!
Are you an expert of people with ADD? What you’ve seen or not doesn’t matters very much otherwise. But regardless, his age is what counts here primarily? This sure isn’t the first time a 6 yo accidentally shoots someone in the USA. Add ADD on top of that,..? Yeah.
The child got the gun because he was in an American household, where you you have the legal right to own a gun but are not legally required to secure it.
💯!
@@Justusson one doesn't have to be an expert on people w ADHD to understand that ADHD doesn't kill, nor does it wound leaving bullet holes in the hand and abdomen. Guns do. So, yeah, no. If you know of a case where ADHD has killed someone, I'd love to hear about it.
ADHD doesn’t make a child want to kill someone. She raised him to be evil.
He’s not evil. He’s literally 6 years old.
LMAO ADHD is the disability? Gimme a break, nothing to do with him bringing in a gun and shooting a teacher lmao
Oh. So, he "accidentally" knocked the phone out of her hand by throwing his hands up. He's not violent. He also "accidentally" shot her the next time he was back to school. She's either choosing to believe her child over the teacher or is being willfully ignorant of his behavior. The phone wouldn't "crack and shatter" from falling. He had a history of random violence, attacking students and teachers, but mom believes that it was an accident that he knocked the phone out of her hand.
Her lawyer is ter-rib-ble. Anyone who closes their eyes while deflecting a question, concentrating that hard to find an acceptable answer, should not be in a line of work where he has to argue a defense for someone. It's so funny that the lawyer wants to blame the school for the kid brnging a gun to school and shooting the teacher. LOL Great job, bub! Good luck with that defense. "If it's true that he's violent, the school knew that and let him attend". LOL!! You can't make this stuff up!
Now, the school is definitely to blame for the kid getting through the day with a gun, when they were warned multiple times by 3 different teachers, but mom let her little kid go to school with a gun! There's plenty of blame to go around. She can share a large portion of it. It is pretty funny that the school is trying to say that the teacher's SHOOTING injury should fall under Workman's Comp. LOL!! Again, you can't make this stuff up! Idiocracy!
Reporter: "You say the gun was locked up. How did he get the gun?"
Lawyer: "Noone knows. You'd have to ask him".
Reporter: "Have you asked him?"
Lawyer: "No. Not yet"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Then he says that they DID talk to him about it, but no adult knows how he got the gun.
Ooooookaaaaayyyyyy.......
"Was the gun locked somewhere?"
Right. Suuuure it was locked. LOL
She says that she's take responsibility for her son because he can't take responsibility for "hisself". How about taking responsibility because the gun wasn't actually locked up? Or take responsibility for teaching your 6-year-old how to pick a lock if it was locked up, like she said?
She doesn't think going to prison for 6 years is fair, but she'll "Do anything for my baby". wtf?
And grandpa thinks it's a race thing? He thinks, if they were white, they wouldn't be so famous now? It's a big deal because it's a 6-year-old who got his mom's gun and shot a teacher in school! Then, the mom's identity was kept secret for months with no charges! Look up Jennifer and James Crumbly, grandpa. Look how race has absolutely nothing to do with your fame, now.
This interview did not help her-- AT ALL. LOL
you are responsible lady. these folks must have been ill talking about the teacher. not a bloody disability. this is criminal .
I cannot say, definitively, that the fathers assertion of racial bias is unwarranted or insincere, but I had no idea what the students race was prior to this interview. I did, however, know that a student with prior behavioral issues at the school had taken his parents gun to school and shot his teacher. The age of the student and schools ineptitude in protecting the other students and the staff is what has fueled the outrage of this case. For a school to fail its teachers, support staff, and students in such a way is egregious enough, and then to have the district argue that it is a workmen's comp issue is beyond the pale.
It was complete nonsense what the great grandfather said. Any 6 year old shooting any teacher is going to be major news. He's projecting.
Yeah, she's a great mother all right, how could she not be she raised a 6-year-old child, who snuck a gun out of his house, took it to school and shot his teacher. I'm sure she's going to be getting mother of the Year award ☹️👎☹️👎
I have a question. did his mother have to spend all day at school with her son? did she have a job? if not, she is a bad example for him, and both the mother and son are should not be allowed in normal society since they hate normal society. they do not fit in and are both threats to normal people.
unfit mother. poor child. who knows what is happening in that house, obviously bad things
Newport News Public Schools is a corrupt district known for sweeping issues of neglectience under the rug.
Finally someone who has sympathy for the child
Thank god
We need more of that
Yes he did a horrible thing but you can't legally punish a 6 year old. It is wrong
the grandpa saying that if his grandson was white and the teacher was black then “it wouldn’t be as pumped up as much” is so ridiculous!! why are you bringing the race card into everything?! and what he’s saying isn’t even true. i bet if it was actually the other way around he’d be calling the 6 year old a racist!! people like them are ridiculous. they cannot take accountability for anything. complete narcissists!! the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
Exactly!
I was at a store and this little boy was walking up to adults and acting like he was pointing a gun and shooting us. He came up to me and I said little boy don't do that and go to your parents. Parents should be held accountable because what is this little boy seeing and being exposed too?
When I was 6 years old I think I still had training wheels on my bike and trying to learn how to read and write... 2023.. We are in the future everyone...

This interview was so annoying and frustrating. They’re still not taking responsibility for what happened. They don’t seem to realize how incredibly huge this incident is. He could have killed a woman and children. This isn’t a racial issue it’s an ongoing problem that only keeps getting bigger which is young people and unstable people having access to guns and deciding to kill other people. Their answers were ridiculous. She needs to get locked up and her child needs therapy and needs to be monitored for the rest of his life. This is not going to be the last time he will do something like this.
Yes mom says teacher was ignoring him and not admit kid slammed teacher’s phone and said he shrugged. she’s a huge part of the non parenting here
OMG the race card, big shocker, sigh....gimme a damn break, I didn't even know the child's race until now, and have been appalled by the situation from day one!
I said from day one this was a 'critical race theory' inspired shooting. He was just trying to 'eradicate' racism, just as he was taught to do.
They hid his race because this was a hate crime. He shot her over perceived racism.
This is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen. You can tell they blame everyone but themselves and this child. This kind of attitude starts to explain how this came to happen.
Agree. A child with that behavior has no discipline and no accountability. And I can see why. They learn from the adults who are in charge of them. This is unfortunately happening very frequent. We spare the rod and we don’t know how to educate our children because it has to begin within the home.
"Anything for my baby" completely denying and downplaying the reality of the help he needs
It gives me no pleasure to say this but her “baby” will probably kill someone before his 18th birthday. Some innocent victim not unlike his teacher will pay the ultimate price for his mother’s abusive and neglectful parenting. Children don’t become violent like that without experiencing violence in the home. I suspect this family has had a long history with CPS. Can you imagine your child having to attend class with him at whichever school he ended up transferring to? I would take my child out before allowing them to be anywhere near this boy. He will most likely progress from Oppositional Defiant Disorder to Conduct disorder as a teen and then finally to Antisocial Personality Disorder as an adult, what’s commonly referred to as a “sociopath”. I sincerely hope I’m wrong but with the family’s complete denial of the severity of problem, the odds aren’t good.
The kid is 6 yrs old with ADHD. I wish you would read over your comments. As adults do we really think a child at age 6yrs old with ADHD(that’s on medication) is a responsible adult thinking about consequences and actions? What child at 6 really knows about accountability? Do you think at age 6 a child knows if I shot someone I will go to prison? And how dare you say this family has probably had a long history with CPS…. The kid has ADHD. I think you should read up on that. You should probably know that any kid from any race can have ADHD. It could have been a Caucasian kid with ADHD that took a gun to school and shot someone. And I really believe that if that had been the case these comments wouldn’t have been made about a CHILD! You should be ashamed.
@@Jen-run84 you are worse than a sociopath. when you kill, you are a psychopath. think of all the money society will waste on this kid by trying to prove he is not antisocial while he kills more.
Mom needs to pay for her negligence. If she doesn’t have money, she needs to pay through prison time.
She will go to jail.
@@sharyk1895 But she doesn't think she deserves it. She thinks she's going to prison to pay for her son's crime. She's a narcissistic, entitled idiot.
at least make her tie he tubes so she can't make any more little monsters.
Knocked the phone out by accident?
I believe that he has ADHD, but this child also sounds like he could be on the autism spectrum, which ADHD often co-occurs with. But this is not really the biggest issue for me. How in the bloody hell did a 6-year-old get access to a gun? How did he even know how to use it without accidentally shooting himself?
if the TV is the babysitter that's how he learned. The mom could have been watching TV that had violence on he could have learned from that too. I don't believe he has autism because the doctors would have tested him. I hope the teacher can sue the parents and school. Not "we were forming a relationship." Don't get fooled.
Unsupported assumption, but based on the moms casual attitude I bet she's the type that just keeps it in her purse... And leaves the purse wherever
'AdHd' and 'autism' are often misdiagnosed fetal alcohol syndrome. That way no one has to admit to harming the child.
@@sharyk1895 He was just 'eradicating racism'. As per his Critical Race Theory teachings.
Don't you dare bring autism into this
I am autistic and i am not violent
All this interview did was piss people off.
She's not genuine . She's trying to do pr for any potential juror in her trial .
Bad parents having bad kids.
Is there a father of this 6 yr old boy? Where is he?
I don’t know, maybe his dad is just as awful as he is, and not in his life
Sir this has nothing to do with race. Sounds like this kid is a menace and will likely grow up and do it again.
Okay, did they know they had the right to remain silent? Because this was a mess. This kid didn’t have a chance and still doesn’t have one with great gramps. Zero accountability and willful ignorance.
lawyer seems a little shady.
“I'm sorry that you got hurt?” As if she strained a muscle or scraped her elbow. This woman was shot with a deadly weapon. “I'm Sorry that my great-grandson had to go through this ordeal.” That he caused? He's old enough to understand right from wrong.
She says the kid has behavioral issues, then just because the kid told her it was an accident, she believes the phone incident was an accident 😂 people like this shouldn’t have children. Now look…what does this kid become now?
I remember feeling mad at a teacher a few times in elementary school. I didn’t want to harm them. That sounds like this boy has severe issues and probably shouldn’t have been in school.
They are clearly choosing their words carefully in this interview. The mother knows exactly how her son got the gun. She also provides the motive for the shooting. The mother perceived the teacher was not providing adequate attention to her son. It is likely that the mother made derogatory statements about the teacher to her son, making him feel that he was being neglected in the classroom. All of this was a perfect storm. If the gun was stored high in a closet with the safety-on as the mother said, then her son would have watched the gun being handled at some point and then put away. How would he know how to undo the safety? He obviously watched someone else undo it. I have family members who have ADHD and they are not killers. But they don't have passive, enabling parents either. Who would keep a gun accessible to an unstable child. I hope she gets prison time. She deserves it.
What an unfit mother to blame ADHD for the justification for shooting his own teacher at 6 years old.... He shouldn't be playing uno he should be in a behavioral facility
This mom needs to be locked up on behalf of her child. All I hear are excuses and "poor me"
Edit: HOW DARE they bring race into this.
the only person who should be bringing race into this is the white teacher
By age six this particular child knew everything he needed to know about guns (where one was, how to access and use it) but could not yet have understood the permanent result of the murder he almost committed. So- his mother needs to be in jail. And apologizing. Grandpa needs to be punished for raising an idiot, and the kid needs lots of help getting out of this irresponsible family. This is why we can’t have nice things
Real
The grandfather is too old to be raising a child that young! Where is the father? He needs to be out in the presence of strong men and only men! This woman has failed her child and obviously herself as well!
This child will shoot someone else,
She should be arrested for not taking care of her son. She's a bad mother.
The district is bad also.
I have ADHD and autism but i never shot anybody when i was six, disgusts me when they use the "oh he has a disability " as an excuse.
She’s still in pajamas “didn’t have time to change”…when the shooting happened in the afternoon…
-Failed to accompany her son to class as part of school’s behavior plan.
-Failed to check his backpack when my single mom managed to put a snack in there before I was off to school…
-Failed basic gun safety measures with child at home…Failed drug tests later…
-Failed to get him to school more than a few months for preschool & kindergarten…
-Oh, but she remembers playing card games with him and remembering him complaining about feeling ignored by 1st grade teacher.
-She ignored, endangered & neglected him: not his teachers.
-This reminds me of why I left public school as an educator.
This interview is very telling. What an enabler. Blaming the teacher? What a genius.
If the school was warned that the child most likely had a gun, and they didn't search him or his back-pack, who was at fault. It sounds like everyone was at fault.
Exactly 💯
Why isn’t she in jail?! Nobody wants to here excuses like “ooooh it’s his adhd” that’s bullshit & she knows it. She needs to be held responsible!
Most "ADHD" is really misdiagnosed Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
They say "sorry, she got hurt" which isn't accountability! Saying it like that totally minimizes what that child did.
I’m just glad that teacher is okay and she’s alive.
She should be in jail for attempted murder
I am speechless at the lack of accountability! Wow!
That gun wasn’t locked up. No need to lie.
Mother is amazing and very professional after losing custody of her son with only ADHD? I pray the teacher wins her forty-million-dollar lawsuit against the disgusting school system.
Im at a loss for words, how infuriating. The mom should go to jail and the school should compensate the teacher. That kid needs to be in a live in program, that is more than adhd.
Saying a white child shooting a black teacher would not have been more of a hate crime is absurd. The mother is absolutely responsible, and by her response in this interview, I'd say she doesn't hold the baby and herself accountable. She needs more than jail time she needs some court ordered parenting and accountability classes.
Hearing the family speak I’m not surprised. Flippant as can be.
Kids are mischievous AF so the only answers that should be coming out of your mouth is you should have done better and apologize. Your little brat is not an angel. Now criminal charges is absolutely useless in this case and will do absolutely no good. This is a monetary matter and nothing else now. Get the kid the treatment he needs so he can be a production of society and not a burden like he is.
The little boy didn’t know how to react when he got angry. He probably didn’t have some good examples, and then there’s this careless gun ownership, because anyone can have a gun, even irresponsible adults, and so you have the perfect storm for a little boy with a deficit disorder. The mother is clearly the one who is responsible for this incident. It could’ve been a whole lot worse the teacher or one of the kids could’ve been killed.
This is exactly what happens when you you have the legal right to own a gun but are not legally required to secure it.
She is a drug dealer. Drug dealers are not legally allowed to have guns, so this is what happens when drug dealers get guns illegally.
Some “mother”, typical of these people. She is “willing?” How NICE of her after raising a monster.
A Gun in the home of a violent ADHD Child, that wont stand still? Wow!!!!
this family takes no accountability
This is ridiculous. Blaming ADHD for reckless and poor behavior that was an ongoing issue with this child... It sounds like the parents gave up on his tantrums because it was too much to handle. Then a 6 year old brings a gun to school and somehow it's society being prejudice against them... He's SIX YEARS OLD shooting at his elementary teacher... REALLY?! That child does not know how to manage his emotions properly and is throwing cell phones on the ground and beating children up because he can't process his emotions correctly. He escalated his anger with a gun... It wouldn't matter the child's race... If he's a shooter he's a shooter.. Look at how the parents took responsibility for their son's actual mental illness with the bank shooting... He was an adult but his parents still wish that they could have done more... This kid is lucky that he didn't kill the teacher.
She destroyed her life and future of her kid
I hope Deja Taylor would learn her lesson in prison for child neglect and she'll change during her parole after a few years in prison
Why was a member of the family NOT with the 6 year old in school during the week of the shooting as agreed someone to be? First week they miss, child shoots teacher!!!! Damn right she is responsible.
As a health professional ADHD isn’t one of those disorders where you “want to shoot someone”. There’s more sever disorders which change your personality or behaviors severely. To claim that as their reasoning is sad. Get your kid diagnosed correctly. 😢 and to hear him say “I feel sorry for me grandson going through this ordeal.” Is so demoralizing to the actual victims.
That woman has hate in her eyes and you can see hate in her eyes.
That woman should never be aloud to be around any child ever again
She said "I'm willing like she got a choice!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Based on this small clip, this woman needs to be stripped of her parental rights. That boy needs to be taken from her, and she needs to be locked up. If this boy was 17 and did the same thing she would make the same excuse and say it's fine that she pays the price for his actions because she is his mother. American this is the issue in Black America. Mothers so I love with their sons they can't do any wrong in their eyes. What 6 year old says I felt ig ignored at school? I have raided 3 6 year old, and none of them talk like that. She's making up lies to protect her sons dangerous actions. This kid is the way he is because of her. The only change this young boy has to be rehabilitated is by removing him from this horrible mother. I am a Black man, and this is exactly what I have seen with you g Black mothers. They make excuses and will do anything for their sons. These are children and adult sons. To these mothers, their sons didn't do anything wrong, and there is always an excuse.
Raided 🤣
The school ignored the teacher's concern, and the teacher ignored the student's concern. This district does not have the best interest of students.
Stop blaming the student and mom because NNPS is corrupt and I know it first hand.
If this 6 year old were 17 and a junior or senior in high school his personal information would be released to the public
You should be blamed for your son shooting that innocent teacher at the elementary school.
How did the kid get a hold of a loaded gun ?
He liked her? So he shot her in the stomach?
I’m so glad everyone is aware that ADHD does not cause you to get a gun and shoot your teacher, like wtf is she saying
ADHD and autism are commonly misdiagnosis for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Then the parent can seek professional help without admitting they caused the problem themselves.
It's insane to let that little 6 year old boy to take a gun to school and shoot the teacher. This is getting out of hand.
TERRIBLE MOTHER! He threw his hands up and “accidentally” knocked the phone over!? Lack of accountability for TERRIBLE parenting EXPECTING the school to do magic on your kid! How freaking sad! I hope the parents get sued for NEGLIGENCE for the entire situation!
She looks like a winner. She dam sure doesn't seem sorry, i would be tore up if my kid did something like this. She's too nonchalant
“He said fine and threw his arms up and that’s when he knocked her phone out her hands…. on accident.” Sheesh
Throw these "parents" and grandfather under the jail. How many "good moms" do you know that have a 6 year old that breaks cellphones and brings a gun to school? And then trying to blame ADHD? How many other 6 year olds do you know with ADHD that have an attempted murder charge under their belt? FOH!
