Although I rly don't care, what would you think if you had 6 years left to live, if you already had severe mental issues it can be enough to tip you over. There is no excuse, but some people are just in such a rough spot they don't care about their consequences since nothing can be worse than how they already have it, and being able to help them out of that so they in turn can accept that what they did, in fact was as bad as it was, is probably also the goal here. Sure she could absolutely have acted more grown up, sure she should face what she did. But if you want her to do that sometimes you gotta help them first

She has been however cruel and the boundaries are generally set through discipline and seeing consequences. I hope this show will let her see that through seeing the heartbreak she gave for these poor couples. But still I believe mental illness or disabiliy is not an excuse excuse for cruelty and the fact this is how media represents the mentally ill does not do much will in terms of showing how the mentally ill and disabed generally act and most are good people and not cruel like this individual has been. The only excusable reason for a mentally ill person of acting out is if they enter a meltdown at that point no it is hard to say what the did was done out of malice. But what she did was specifically with intent to hurt these couples and manipulate them for self gratification so clearly was not done out of a meltdown.

[@kittycat8222]

Tere Cee So sorry for the loss of one of your babies. I have many friends and family that have those conditions and all have had children "eventually" through weight loss and surgery intervention. It is possible for most. Edit for those who asked :Endometriosis is stimulated by the hormone estrogen. It has to do with your menstrual flow not leaving properly. Also in MANY cases has to do with weight gain. (Which is why it can be connected with pcos which causes insulin resistance which causes weight gain). I get it no one wants to address certain reasons why it happens but weight gain and being overweight has a lot to do with it. My sister had 2 children young without issues. Years later after gaining 50-75 lbs of extra fat she developed endo. Now she cannot have children without losing the weight. When a women is overweight the extra fat literally is full of estrogen when prevents conception in many many ways. Each women I knew who had endo was obese. I'm NOT SAYING ALL Women are like this or that it's the only cause but when you mix the hurt women from not being able to convince with the hurt they feel for being overweight (and their responsibilities in that) they can get pretty ANGRY. So stop being mean to the OP. She was fine in saying what she did. There are lots of anecdotal stories on the net for you to read as well as peer reviewed studies. I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings but for those who do not know that's what endo is from. It takes only a few minutes to find the information. Praying for ALL of you nice ladies who are struggling. Really I am. My husband was told he was infertile one year after we were married and it about killed me. Sent me into a depression like no other and made me almost lose my mind. However we did end up having 2 children and losing one. I have no fertility issues. So The drs. we're wrong about him. Keep trying and keep looking into what you can do to change yourself to help yourself. One of my friends had to eat nothing but vegetarian food basically and lose 50 plus lbs AND do IUI to convince Bc she had endometriosis.

That's a harmful and offensive statement. I get that not everyone knows right from wrong, especially with certain disorders or degrees of whatever disorder(s) present, but most of us do.

[@Tyrosine0910]

@@gigib8849 You're 100% right. Anybody who feels sorry for her should look her up. Her name is Gabby Watson, & she's perhaps the most prolific adoption scammer of all time. Somebody managed to score an interview with her by pretending to be her friend for two months, & she told this person "it's funny to make them cry. It feels great." She is pure evil.

Because she worked at a facility for the mental health so she understands. Most people don't get it unless they experience or around people with special needs. She knows she can't control it she needs medical help most is due to chemist imbalance in the brain that's why they come across as bit slow. Most can't control what they do unless medicated to calm them down. She gets it. Let's hope people that you love or even yourself will not be subjected to sever mental health in the future as it can affect anyone anytime. It's a very sad sight to see.

[@LC-se8pw]

@@bonnie2264 I suffer with severe anxiety and depression... I DO get it. My only point is that they are exceptional people to put their feelings aside for the person who hurt them.

[@JD-FIES]

She definitely seems like an untreated mental health & special needs case.

[@Josh-gv4pt]

As somebody who works in that field, I can tell you it's not that. She's a brat and a manipulator because she's been enabled her whole life and lacks any discipline or accountability. She's just an awful person, and making excuses for her shitty behavior by calling it a mental health issue only serves to bring those of us who are actually dealing with mental health issues down.

[@AZ-bj1gb]

Jün Jo grab the bat and swing maybe she’ll learn then

[@laurenh2498]

Jün Jo She definitely acts as if she is intellectually disabled. Her behavior and speech point to that.

[@vikab8929]

Jün Jo I’m also in this field and she seems very clearly to have some developmental and mental health concerns. That doesn’t excuse her behaviour, as she is clearly also intelligent. However, she has been lacking access to services targeted towards her needs. She evidently felt lonely and lacked the tools to remedy that situation so she found an “effective” method of getting people to like her. Had she been taught how to make friends and her needs been looked after, she likely never would have done this. She was obviously alone and without supervision for hours on end starting from at least age 16, otherwise someone would have noticed this sooner. As someone who works with people who have certain developmental needs, it surprises me that you wild choose to insult her rather than show compassion and a desire for her to finally have access to proper services and treatment.

[@DocBree13]

Jün Jo I’m surprised that as someone who works in that field you think you can have a grasp on her entire mental and intellectual state in a few minutes of a television clip. I would also hope you’d have more compassion than you seem to have.

[@costakarras7293]

I had a girlfriend years ago that couldn't have kids. The intense bouts of anger from her would come out of nowhere. The only thing she didn't do was be violent other than verbally or destroy property. It was odd to deal with, and one day I came to the conclusion I have to look out for me. Somethings you have to walk away from.

[@kohljackal]

It is so obvious that she is mentally ill and emotionally stunted. She needs to go somewhere for intense treatment. She even presents like a 10 year old. It's pathetic. It's horrible what she did but I hope it helps them in some way to know that the person who victimized them was not in their right mind.

She's perhaps the most prolific adoption scammer of all time, & when somebody scored an interview with her by pretending to be her friend for two months, she told this person "it's funny to make them cry. It feels great." Anybody who feels sorry for her shouldn't waste their energy.

Whether she needs help or not, it is a cowardly move to run away and say that she is done after what she did lying to these poor people about having a baby. By doing what she did, she has shown that she is unworthy of receiving any help whatsoever and she needs to answer for her wrongdoings. She is lucky that these people are humble and forgiving because I know a few people out there would would not be so merciful towards being lied to like that.
