      My upbringing was very similar to this girl. When I was young I never had to deal with consequences or punishment from my parents. I did whatever I wanted, I did drugs and abused alcohol starting at age 12 but I never did anything violent. I was out of control but I still had empathy. I remember fighting with my dad about homework and throwing my pencil at my desk and it bounced off my desk and hit him in the face, that legit made me cry and I still remember the pain it caused me to know I had caused a minor scratch. I’m saying this because the out of control, wild teenage antics have nothing to do with violence and lack of empathy. I couldn’t imagine hurting someone like that even in my darkest drug and alcohol fueled binges. All the drugs alcohol and lack of consequence’s did was cause me educational and life stunting hardship. I’m sure her mom isn’t a saint at all but I don’t think the rules and accountability were the issue for her lack of empathy.

      It's bad parenting. You see this over and over. The kids get away with things and are never held accountable and rarely are they punished. The parents are often 'weak' minded and think any punishment is what will be the bad thing for the child.
      As the kids get older they take advantage of the situation knowing they are going to get away with it or face almost no punishment at all. Then as they get older and into the teen years the behavior escalates and by that time it's too late to change the behavior. As they say... Too late to make the old dog learn a new trick.
      I can tell you that the older you get and the more time goes on you can spot these issues and literally pick out what kids will be the problem and why they will be a problem...and in 98% of it its the parenting. The number one excuse when they have a bad kid is they were running with the wrong crowd. Its never their kid is the problem and right there it literally exposes the bad parenting. The new excuse is the take the wrong crowd and the couple it with mental illness.. that is the new excuse... They make you believe every person needs to swallow a few pills and talk to a therapist or they won't be right in life... Nobody ever admits they were just a bad parent. No parent ever says well I was easy to push over and manipulate and because my kid was intelligent they were able to exploit me and when they had bad behaviors I simply let them get away with it to avoid hurting their feelings or getting upset.

      I agree but I don't blame the grandparents in the slightest for not wanting to. Your grandparents will always see you as the little smiling babe they first met. But Cassandra's mother is an absolute fool for trying to transfer her responsibilities onto her elderly parents.
      If you, a middle-aged adult, cannot take control of your out-of-control teenage child, what in the world makes you think two people well past their prime can?? She let her own child run wild on her for YEARS all while not having a stable man in the picture to instill what she couldn't, discipline, into her daughter.
      She doomed that child from the moment she came into this world and she doomed her parents because she couldn't accept responsibility for the hole she put both her and her daughter in. If anyone is partially to blame for this, it's certainly her.

      @julieloucalcote1368 5 месяцев назад +64

      I agree. As a teacher, I see quite a few kids that are being raised by grandparents for one reason or another. Very few are truly good kids. Most have come from terrible parenting situations and they bring that drama with them. Grandparents are not meant to be raising young children. They have done their time with parenting and are suppose to be able to sit back and enjoy their grandchildren’s lives from afar. Most of the time they are too old to keep up with the kids physically, mentally, and nowadays technologically! They want to see only the good in their grandchildren and that’s the way it should be. But when raising a child you have to be discerning in their behavior. Able to see both sides of the fence, so to speak. They are easily manipulated by the children because times are very different from when the grandparents were kids or even from when they were raising their own children. I know it is best to keep children with family rather than foster care but sometimes grandparents are not the answer.

      I see a lot of her behavior in some of my friends that were raised by a single mother or step parent. The mother is too busy trying to find a man instead of raising her child, which leads to numerous men entering and leaving the child's life which can be devastating. Even if the mother finds someone to marry her, the man usually wants nothing to do with the child, and since the mother only cares for herself, leads to the child being ignored. There are exceptions of course, and this is not a defense of what the girl did to her grandparents, she's in prison where she belongs. It's just sad that the child always ends up paying for the horrible decisions their parents make while raising them.

      "Strict parents" are dirty words to today's public mind.
      A mother knows she will be blamed no matter what she does.
      The girl knows too.
      Therein lies both the question and the answer.

In this case, as in many others, the typically whimsical adage ‘love is blind’ took a very pejorative turn.

      There is no such thing as innate psychological traits-no one is born psychopathic, extraverted, gay, etc. These traits instead develop in response to environment beginning around 9 months of age, when infants start thinking symbolically.
      Cassie's unstable upbringing, as well as the institution of the nuclear family-which forces minors into the legal custody of adult caregivers, which in turn are often needlessly strict or otherwise incapable of providing a nurturing and fulfilling home-are the chief causes of her behavior.

    Several things come to mind....First, thank you Adrian and Nero :) for doing a fantastic job of thoroughly explaining this fiasco. With that said...ABSOLUTLEY, the mother of this spoiled brat should have been charged long ago with negligence, or accessory after the fact, seeing as how she KNEW her daughter was beyond control and she willfully sent this horrible "child" to live with her grandparents who are more often than not, softer with their grandchildren than the childs' parents are. She as a young mother( adult) couldn't or WOULDN'T discipline her daughter so instead, she sends her to live with her ELDERLY parents which in my opinion, was her way of washing her hands of the mess. Now then, the parents or the grandparents to the devil seed should have NEVER accepted that responsibility. Never. But, since they did...the very first time she "acted out" with them, they should have turned her over to CPS or law enforcement. I personally would NEVER have allowed that kind of nonsense to occur. If I had been in the mother's shoes, the First time that kid would have hit me, disrespected me or "run away" from home, would have been the last time I would have dealt with it. When she ran away, they should have LET HER GO. Let her figure out how to fend for herself in the world, on the streets. If you allow such behavior even ONCE, it will become the norm. Kids need discipline and rules from the moment they come into the world. If you don't set the standard of behavior in your own home, you will become another statistic in society down the road.

    I wonder if Cassandra was the driving factor or if the boyfriend gave her enough confidence and support that she thought she could get away with anything, even dispatching her grandparents? I admit I was a somewhat rebellious teenager, and my parents response was to threaten to send me away to military style boot camp type thing. In Cassandra's case, I think something like that would have been more useful. I was not a violent teenager, I never ran away, mostly I just didn't like to do my homework because I hated my classmates and teachers who often bullied me. I also didn't like to come home at night, usually spending my time at my grandparents house. To be fair my parents were never home, they worked two hours away and wouldn't be home until seven pm or later. They never asked me why I was struggling, never wondered why I would ignore them or talk back. In my case I think if they had tried to understand, and tried to meet me at my own level and talk maybe things could have gone better. In Cassandra's case, I think she just genuinely believed no one should have the right to tell her how to live or what to do. It was from the ground up a basic lack of respect. Perhaps even a lack of emotion, because I cannot fathom someone capable of dragging their kin from their beds and knifing them. And to plan to do it to others too? People she arguably had no ties to? She was a serial killer in the making.

    It's unfathomable what this couple went through in their last moments. Horrific. And they loved their little pos granddaughter. It's chilling to hear her talk about murdering the people who loved her most. Absolutely a psychopath.

    How could anyone be sympathetic towards these horrible types ? Agree with you Adrian she was crying for herself-& also , yes Cassandra was a rotten egg ...
