Posted in: Woman arrested for strangling 11-year-old son to death See in context

I hate to judge without actually knowing her, but sometimes I wonder if people like this have ever had any mental hardships in their lives. I have no doubt that working mothers have difficult lives in these difficult economic times. Nevertheless, sometimes I wonder if peoples' thresholds are just that much lower in terms of tolerance when it comes to dealing with others' hardships. Patience and tolerance is one of those things you learn in a constant and deliberate struggle in coming to terms with yourself and also understand others.

Why is the gut reaction when you see someone that's obviously having mental difficulties "Oh great, I have to deal with this crap now; just my luck!" instead of "I should put forth effort in trying to understand and be patient with this person. What a wonderful opportunity to understand a different perspective and perhaps by proxy learn a little about myself"?

Again, I'm not judging her because I don't know the situation. But reading into that the girl didn't seem to receive the same level of criminal abuse as far as we know, and seeing so many situations where parents(and teachers) are impatient with disabled children because it touches/nicks on that upper limit of day to day tolerance, I just have to wonder.
