Mickey, I'm from Texas & he's from Illinois. How did we grow up together?
This entire situation is heart-breaking. At the moment, everyone's focus should be on Austin, for hoping for the best and praying-as some one earlier said- for a miracle for this sweet little boy. I would think that the energy on this board could be spent in a more positive way, with love and good thoughts towards a family with a mother and grand-parents experiencing unimaginable pain and worry. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Tresoka, its obvious that you are upset - both with Jeremy for his inexcusable actions and for Jeremy, because he's destroyed his own life and his familys. And I understand your anger and pain. But the only person responsible for Jeremy is Jeremy. I know that if Jeremy were to read this, he would not approve of your comments towards Helene and her family- they should not have to deal with your hateful words. I hope you are embarassed when you re-read your posts this morning.
If in your heart you had felt something was really wrong Tresoka and if in deed you felt it was mounting up, as a decent caring human being and "friend" of Jeremy's...from no matter how far you would have picked up that phone and called a family member and said "I am scared for that baby, help him" Don't you think a million people would have wanted to prevent something like this? Where is your head?
People know first time fathers struggle to cope in the beginning, but do they ever think to this point? NO.
In the end, putting blame on others for one's actions does not solve anything nor does it shed any light or bring positive energy to the innocent...the baby.
If you care for his well being you drop it and focus on him.
You making excuses for his behavior is ludacris.
You come to earth with a gift, free will. You use it to make good or evil. There was no gun to his head. There is no "AW boo hoo my life sucks, I am going to take it out on him and smack his brain out" You don't like your life, or your child then you walk out...as many do. Pure and simple. Hope it makes sense one day in your lifetime.
Not me Mickey. I never lived in Illinois, and when I lived in Wisconsin I was pulled over once, but didn't even get a warning.
Oh, so you are saying because of words, Jeremy punches his child in the head, and oh well, baby is collateral damage because mom got what she was asking for? wow, this is one of the most stupid, asinine comments ever.Yes, you are correct. Austin will suffer the most from this, and it isn't fair. NEVER did I justify what the father did, but just expressed that this is what her lies & selfishness gets her. You should always be careful what you ask for. You just may get it, but it isn't always the way you want it....
The last thing I read about Austin, wasnt good news, He is forever changed and crippled by that this Monster fuck did to him. They still dont know if he will ever see again or have much of a life. Hopefully his brain will start to rewire itself, but even then there will always be problums and issues.
Sorry it took so long to get to this. He was sentenced in February.
And Mom has a facebook page, but does not use her name, because of the back lash of all of this. Austin is still the same, still has the same problems.
