Subject: It certainly begs the question, doesn't it??
In reply to: Kelli 's message, "What were they thinking?" on 23:29:01 06/24/01 Sun

... With her suicidally depressive history, it seems less than wise to add to their family --*particularly* with pregnancy/childbirth having been such a serious trigger for her mental illness. Anyone who has ever stayed home with little ones 24/7 -- no matter how much you love and adore them -- knows that it can be a trying experience. That this woman was handling five very young children on her own sure does sound like a tragedy waiting to happen. I can only wonder that sometimes we humans aren't ready to see the reality that surrounds us because it seems so overwhelming. How incredibly sad that her husband or other family members couldn't recognize the depth and emergent quality of her symptoms. So, so sad.
