THIS IS WHAT NEWTOWN MASSACRE IS REALLY ALL ABOUT

IT'S ABOUT MENTAL ILLNESS:
I am sharing this story because I am Adam Lanza’s mother. 
I am Dylan Klebold’s and Eric Harris’s mother. 
I am James Holmes’s mother. 
I am Jared Loughner’s mother. 
I am Seung-Hui Cho’s mother. 
And these boys—and their mothers—need help. 
In the wake of another horrific national tragedy, it’s easy to talk about guns. But it’s time to talk about mental illness.

  1. For the past several decades, the movement in education has been to pretend that all learning differences are benign. Well, they are not!

    There is a fine line between autism and sociopathy. For example, autists see other people as objects; so do psychopaths.

    Autists can also be quite volatile -- in fact, extremely so.

    Along the lines of what I'm saying, please see THIS.
