Yeah I think that could have been part of Nikki's motivation to try and be responsible for her own children. I was thinking it must be hard to still be a mom for a third generation of kids and kept wondering how the great grandmother felt about having the kids all this time, it must have been hard.

“All you want is for your mom to be a mom” was a very hard hitting thing to hear because yes, it’s so true. Growing up with a less than stellar mother, you spend a lot of nights crying yourself to sleep thinking you did something wrong when all you needed was your mama.

[@soogyu703]

My mom currently has a rare disease that’s within her sisters but she has it worse with her brain shrunken to the size of a 8 year old & she’s basically a dementia patient but 20x worse and way younger . It’s hard being 16 and having to live everyday seeing your mom in that condition that you just completely lose all of your memories of your real mom. All you think about is what you did to deserve it and try to grasp on old memories of your mom there’s nothing much to do but just keep in mind it’s never your fault you didn’t do anything wrong to deserve losing your mom or just never having one in the first place

Great grandma was their mom, taking a child away from the person who acted as mom, especially a teenager, and having them live with another family member who is now trying to lay down a new law and is taking actions that are only adding more and more and more stress to your life during an already stress filled period is the perfect catalyst for what happened here.

I had a similar upbringing. My parents were young when I was born so I was raised by my great grandparents (my dad's grandparents, who also raised him). My dad got married when I was 11 and right before I turned 12, he made me move to the city with him and my stepmother, against my wishes. I was devastated for a very long time. I loved my parents but I had to leave my whole life behind in my town I grew up in and my great grandparents were everything to me. My great grandfather passed when i was 17 and my great grandmother passed about 6 years later and it hit me really hard. I'm 34 now with a child of my own but it still makes me sad to this day.

TBH I'm having a hard time empathizing with the mom. The kids were doing great before all that nonsense started, she didn't ask permission to be in their lives (Demanded them instead, never going to win hearts and minds that way), she pushed and pushed even though it clearly wasn't working for any of them.... Yeah... not to say that the twins were right, but I can completely see why they ended up that way. :/ Nikki strikes me as the type who was taken in by what she "should" be to the twins rather than what she really was or could've reasonably been to them. It takes more than just biology to make a parent.

[@tichinaj2667]

As a kid who had an absent mother and was forced to be to raised by my grandma, I understand the anger and resentment the twins held when their mom decided to want them on HER terms. I resented my mother for a long time after she left me and came back when she wanted. It doesn’t matter how much you try to make up for it.

[@jxxntt9200]

And it makes you even angrier especially me bc my mom tried so hard when I was a teen to be my mom but I was so used to her being mentally absent that I hated it and resented her

[@karlylo]

I think it was Della's fault ALL the children she raised turned out to be like that. She didn't discipline them when they get older. Basically being a mom for their childhood but simply a roommate after. Teens minds are still developing, instead of continuing to nuture them, she simply stopped and let them do whatever they want.

[@such_astrangegirl]

exactly, my mom did the same exact thing. thankfully she got the hint to leave me alone after having four other daughters beside me.

[@stares_mthrfckrly]

This is why the court system needs to listen to what the children want. The fact that they kept on giving Nikki custody of them and pushing counseling to force mending on that relationship when it wasn’t ready to be mended, it doesn’t always end with violence or death in the home, but it most certainly doesn’t end well. COURTS NEED TO LISTEN TO THE CHILDREN.

[@thatamandahenderson]

I think they only wanted to live with their great gma because she was old and they could do whatever they want. Not because it was necessarily the "best" place for them.

[@RedPillRockChick]

I wonder what the whole truth is.. what the home with Della REALLY best for them? Curious about the conditions. Same for the home life with their mother. We will never know the WHOLE story.. what went on behind closed doors. Definitely a sad situation though..

[@JBoog-hk4cj]

@@thatamandahenderson I don’t think that’s it.. before she started trying to take them they were straight A students, athletes, dancers.. their great grandmother kept them busy with proper activities. As soon as the stress of being pulled away as teenagers that’s when they acted up. And they would watch her cheat, party, not be a real mom. This has to drive them insane. It’s just tragic walk around and someone should have listened to them. At 16 it should have been their choice.

[@Starlamarie18]

Oh my dear! I strongly agree! I believe the child’s feelings should be taken into consideration big time! Especially if they are old enough to speak and speak well for themselves!

[@Starlamarie18]

@@thatamandahendersonbut if we look at how their behaviors had changed from living with great grandma to the behaviors living with “mom”. The girls were actually doing well under the only mother figure they had. Their grades didn’t slip until they were forced to move away. The school wasn’t calling home for any reason prior to the shift in homes. I dunno, it still doesn’t justify the twins’ behavior at all. They were very much old enough to know right from wrong here.

[@tiffanylm9673]

Can we just take a moment and applaud Grandma Della for raising her kids, her granddaughter, and great-granddaughters basically by herself. That woman sounds like a Saint 🙏🏻🙌🏻

[@EmpowermentKids1009]

No Fr. She did it ALL 👏🏽👏🏽

[@cytokine_storm]

are we thinking of the same person? she raised a daughter who wasn't there for her daughter, who wasn't there for the twins. No mention if the twins had any discipline about their violent issues causing them to have a record and continue to do it. I'm no perfect parent and I believe she was definitely doing the best she could, but all the adults were. I also feel the courts let them down as well, and after multiple issues with police involved the girls should have had a vacation at a behavioral camp. Della probably wanted to make up for having a distant daughter with her parenting the twins. Who knows, tho.. none of us were there. But I don't think she's a saint.

[@nicolenova8528]

Stop praising a women who created problematic children & passed down or created generational traumas that lead to this end. 🙄

[@rachel-ig7yc]

it's actually said that dela had zero rules and basically let the girls do whatever they wanted, she let her daughter do whatever she wanted, then she let her granddaughter, then she let her great granddaughters. there was no accountability for actions and there was no punishments

[@cannon182011]

Girl, you have no idea. I went to middle school with them and worked in the jail that tas was in until their sentencing and Della had special soaps and detergent even approved for them when no one else had that. Della went hard for those girls.

[@skinscribe]

As someone who had an absent parent, I feel for the twins. You can’t suddenly decide to be a mom one day. I was a child in that position and it’s so hurtful. You’re reconciling feelings of abandonment and it’s like the parent doesn’t even care for the damage that was done, they want to be a parent bc they want to fix their ego, not bc they care for you. Especially when they try to be strict all of a sudden and then want you to respect and love them for it! It just doesn’t work. The courts and therapist majorly failed the whole family. They never should’ve been taken from della, she was their parent and they literally had no issues, she was projecting her experiences onto her daughters and it just made things worse. Im sure something more was going on in the background too for the level of violence that came from this. Poor kids.

[@HappyBirddi]

Children and their psychology is complicated and very delicate, so much of what we experience as children affects us so greatly as adults and things that may not seem really big can absolutely be traumatic for children. I understand that Nikki really wanted to step into the role as a mom, but it should've happened slower to give her girls time to readjust to having a mom. Such a huge shift in parent dynamic and environment would naturally be very upsetting for any child, suddenly having a more present mom with all these rules and wants can be confusing and scary for kids who know a specific dynamic and aren't ready to change yet, and maybe seeking family counseling could've helped. With something like this, it requires taking time to slowly adjust to this new situation not just for the daughters but also Nikki as a parent. This doesn't at all excuse what her daughters did though. The way they treated Nikki is awful and more should've been done to help steer their behavior. It's just so sad that it came to this.

[@ardenalexa94]

I agree with you. So many on here are just flat out blaming their mom but I think although yes it’s understandable why they’re angry, I understand why their mom would want to be closer to them and parent them.

[@MartyOsuna]

Totally agree about the complicated nature of children's psychology. I had an alcoholic absentee father who would occasionally attempt to be 'parental.' As a pre-teen/teen my emotional responses to his 'parenting cameos' were rich admixtures of bewilderment, indignation, feelings of betrayal, and fury. While I don't excuse what the girls did, I can understand how easily things can escalate. I also feel that Nikki meant well, but placed her own fears and concerns ahead of what the girls actually needed, and in doing so made the situation worse instead of better.

[@TheRealAshtray]

my mom did the friend to parent flip, very abruptly. took YEARS for us to get along again. the line in my family was always blurred as to who are elders/authority figures and who wasn’t because everyone was early teens-early 20s when i was born. basically, i was treated like a friend until i did something they didn’t like and to this day, it throws me through a loop. it’s not fair lol cool you’re stepping up but recognize the boundaries your kids have put up and work slowly towards the mother/daughter relationship. popping in abruptly like “ok i’m gonna be a mom now” is never gonna work lol

yes but della's daughter became pregnant at a young age, her grand daughter ran away from home and also became pregnant early, and the twins literally killed their mother. sounds to me like Della was doing something wrong, parenting wise. my theory is she gives way too much freedom. when nikki saw that, she realised her kids were also about to go down the same path as she did and she tried taking custody to stop that. but the twins just saw it as their freedom being taken away so they became violent.

As a person who has been in this type of situation, Nikki wasn't thinking about the girls at any moment, she just wanted control back or whatever, doing what's best for your kids it's not forcing them to change every aspect of their lives without at least a conversation. But in the end the twins are forever wrong for kiling their biological mother....

[@MariaAlex2018]

thank you for giving me this perspective. i always saw the twins as the bad guys through and through, but i actually have had real life experiences of an absent mother wanting to come back into my life to control me, so i can understand their frustration. but like you said, they did do a terrible thing and took their mother’s life.

[@J_Mock92]

I definitely see where you're coming from, but I want to give her the benefit of the doubt. We obviously don't really know the actual specifics of the case, but I can see all sides. I've never been in this situation myself, but have had tons of friends, cousins, nieces/nephews, and extended family members/family friends in these types of situations, and I've seen many different dynamics play out, especially when the parents have their kids young. It's a messed up situation no matter what. The worst is when the parents, grandparents, etc use the kids as "bargaining chips" or as a way to exhibit their control/authority over one another (like my adult friend's parents would continuously threaten to take custody of her son, or refuse to let her see him when they had primary custody, as a means of punishment and way to maintain their grasp of control on her), and I honestly think a HUGE part of the blame should be put on the court systems and their appointed therapists.

[@Lex_1416]

Yeah, I agree with you but I think it was probably less of wanting control and more of a guilt that she carried for basically giving them up to her grandma to raise. I'm sure in her mind she thought she was doing the right thing but at the same time I think she should have stopped once the girls expressed that they did not want to live with her. At that point she was basically forcing them to do something they didn't want nor were they comfortable with, especially with a man that they did not know living in the house as well. The courts and therapists are to blame as well for agreeing with the set-up, knowing that the girls did not want that. I feel like they did not look into any of the details or just didn't care and just thought it would be the better option just because she was the biological mom.

[@amnoel]

I’ve watched Danielle Kirsty’s version of this story and apparently the girls were becoming too much for the great grandmother to handle. As she was 80 at the time. They were out drinking and partying and stealing from the great grandmother. They were out of control.

[@sharniewheeler3939]

I’ve seen this case done on telly aswell and the girls were bad for their grandmother but because of her age and how violent they were she could never do anything to stop them, so I really think their mother was just trying to step up

[@CandiedCorn83]

In my opinion if you decide you can’t be a mom and then one day you’re finally like “you know I think I want to be a mom now” you can’t just walk in and change your whole self. Your daughters knew you as a party, an unstable person in their lives but all of the sudden now you’re a grown up who wants to be there? 25F whose father didn’t want to be a father until I was almost 21 who essentially did the same thing.

I’m just saying this because I was in that situation where your biological parent (in this case my father) wasn’t ready to be an actual parent.

From the moment of birth, these twins were inseparable. They looked exactly alike and dressed exactly the same, right down to their shoes and socks, same style of eyeglasses and white canes they always walked with. They never married and lived together their whole lives. And...died together. Yes, in May of 1996, when the brothers were 61 yrs old, they were dining at a casino restaurant when suddenly one of them collapsed from a cardiac arrest. Restaurant staff and security immediately called an ambulance and began trying to resuscitate him. Then literally TWO MINUTES after his brother collapsed, the other twin collapsed and died of a heart attack. Weird or what?...😳 It gets weirder.

Their mother was a selfish person. She always had to get her way and live her life the way she wanted to, without any consideration for other people. No wonder it backfired eventually.

[@madv-m6q]

but so did the twins... They couldn't do what they wanted, and just because the mother wanted to take them into her custody again, doesn't mean they could end her life in such a traumatic way.

[@madv-m6q]

They also abused her before they killed her. Evil.

[@K1rbyc0ree0]

@@madv-m6qshe literally kidnapped them from their home. The only difference between her and some dude off the street is that it was done legally because she happened to be the mother. Those kids didn’t know her or want her and she took them away from their home and everything they knew. If someone else had kidnapped them like that everyone would be applauding how strong they were but because it was their “mother” they’re monsters🙄

Danielle Kristy did this story as well. From what I remember Della didn’t have a whole lot of rules and they were free to do what they wanted which was partly why they preferred it there than with their mother (who was trying to impose rules and boundaries with them)

[@geminicapricorn6017]

EXACTLY THIS!! Grandparents are usually to old physically to keep up or enforce many rules…. But the pattern shows she was most likely like that with her granddaughter and her daughter. But the mom shouldn’t be demonized for trying to set boundaries. (As I seen in other comments)

I can understand that. Teenagers have no control over their emotions or their actions when they’re worked up. I remember what it was like when I was a teenager. If I had had a different personality it could’ve been bad, especially since you don’t think through repercussions.

[@bri_like_the_cheese9401]

From personal experience (seeing it happen in my family and having a gut feeling this will be the same outcome one day for one of my members and his mom), if you as a parent give up your child because you can’t take care of them and that child goes on to have a great life, wether you become ready yourself or not, leave them alone. You want the best for your kids but you uproot them from their happiness while they’re thriving because you decided you’re ready to be a parent, then wonder why they resent you or don’t respect you down the line and give you a hard time. Play the part you established with them and leave it at that because all you’re doing is confusing and hurting them. They’ll love you regardless of what you’ve done and they will cherish and respect you even more knowing you’d rather them be happy than struggle. Yeah at first they’ll be upset but they’ll realize it for themselves one day. *I’m not blaming of defending anyone, I’m just speaking from personal experience*

[@ghostlydemoness6414]

as a twin myself i can confirm it is a lot of competition. not between us specifically but our family always compared us :D

[@autumnhomer9786]

🎀I can understand Nikki being the mother wanting to have custody of her children but I wish she had seen the stability they had with their Great Grandmother Della. They went from being enrolled in after school classes, having friends and getting straight A’s. To losing stability, friends and their grades failing. From the moment the mother Nikki saw that it wasn’t working. As painful as it was for her. She should have let them stay with their great Grandmother Della.🎀 🎀R.I.P🎀

[@karlylo]

I think it was Della's fault ALL the children she raised turned out to be like that. She didn't discipline them when they get older. Basically being a mom for their childhood but simply a roommate after. Teens minds are still developing, instead of continuing to nuture them, she simply stopped and let them do whatever they want.

[@pwebster17]

I don’t think Nikki really cared about the twins well-being, she just wanted fulfill her fantasy of “righting her wrongs” and being the mom.

[@strawbricketteshortcake5460]

@@pwebster17Why would you call it a fantasy? Wanting to right your wrongs is not a crime… at least she wanted to. There are parents all over the world that could care less and there are also parents that do the same as her and it turns out fine so…. 🫤

[@moniekafortner6921]

​@strawbricketteshortcake5460 it was a fantasy! She didn't care about having a family unit until her and her boyfriend wanted to settle down. It was all about her never about the children! If she really cared about them, she would have talked to them and got counseling b4 moving them out of a stable environment. She would have slowly started to change her relationship with the girls, then ask them what they wanted and if they were willing to move in with her. That is how u make amends 4 past wrongs not just uprooting them from the only home they've known just bc YOU are ready. If the kids aren't ready then it's just traumatizing them not loving them!

[@cymorilbinder9741]

@@moniekafortner6921 I was thinking the same thing! She wasn't ready till her bf wanted a family life, then wanted them to play a role, and (according to the twins and grandmother) she didn't know what she was doing so just became super controling... wouldn't be shocked if they got their violence from her given how impulsive she seemed to be, but that is just my personal thought with that aspect

Identical twins share the same DNA, fraternal twins have their own DNA, and all individuals have their own dental records and fingerprints. Those are unique to each person. Hope that helps!

Nikky was too late… she was their friend and then tried to be their mom. That’s not right. Yes, they (the twin) are not perfect but Nikky failed them from the start…

[@stephanieryder8484]

I was a mother at 18, any mother that chooses her friends over her children were likely never meant to be a mother and don't have a motherly instinct. Raising my daughter has been the best part of my life and I couldn't imagine not spending all my time with her, I used to cry when I had to start working full time because I missed spending all my time with my baby. There's no excuse for a mother who refuses to care for their children so people need to stop making excuses for them or pretending they understand why a mother at any age would abandon their children for their social life, especially if you've never had a kid and don't yet understand the bond between children and their mother.

[@lillianavidal2568]

I agree once you have children you should do your best to do all you can for them no one else including yourself should come before them. I had my son when I was 19 years old and I had my daughter when I was 28 years old. I did everything I could for and with them, they are my heart and soul. I would die for them. They mean the world to me.

​@@karlas4446 tell the same to OP, as a young mom like Bailey said it is VERY difficult to transition from young adult to a young mom. We can all sit here and act dense but we aren't. You are you before being a mom, if she was broke and gave them up bc it was intense proverty then what?
