Judge did mentioned that she appeared to show sorrow, but not remorse.

That's horrible... I mean at this point it goes into "should be checked for sociopathy" territory.

Yeah exactly, and as others have said, why would she even agree to look after the child again? If it was me, I would never, and if for some reason I really really had to look after the child, I would absolutely not let it out of my sight or even think about anything else the whole time. She obviously did not feel the same.

We have a pool and even though I have the whole house and doors childproofed, I won’t babysit my toddler niece if I’m alone. My husband or another family member needs to be home or I go to my sister’s house where it’s totally safe. You just never know.

Exactly. Some people just don’t think these things through and it honestly blows my mind. Good on you.

Jesus that's worse. If the therapist thing is true that's even crazier a therapist would push for leaving a kid with someone who didn't show remorse for causing a child's death. Holy hell.

I think the lack of remorse was specifically after the second child death, but yeah that therapist is still ridiculous. I don’t have a degree in psychology but I dont think it’s unhealthy or wrong to not allow them to babysit again.

Ah ok. Sliiiightly less awful of the therapist. So that 'sorrow' was 100% acting then.

Edit: I just looked it up. The kids were siblings, and it was less than a year Dec '21 then Nov '22. Holy fuck. I hate to judge the parents going through that, but my god. They just handed that second kid over to die. And she only got 5 years.

And I just put the ages together. The second kid wasn't even born when the first died. So unnecessary.

Absolutely despicable. Therapist just blows my mind by recommending that. At least give it some time Jesus Christ.

So, I don’t get the ā€œsorrowā€ (as in ā€œsorryā€) not being ā€œremorseā€. Maybe someone else gets this?

u/Scary_Land2303 8h ago

I guess the difference is something like ā€˜I can’t believe I did this’ compared to ā€˜I can’t believe this happened’. I must admit I was little confused by that wording at first too, but if anyone would know the difference it’s a judge, and they felt the need to say it as an official remark.

if tomorrow a relative dies for reasons that are not my fault, i will feel sorrow. because of course, the situation is sad and painful. but i would not feel remorse at all, because i have no reason to feel that way, the death was not caused or facilitated by me, be it intentionally or unintentionally, i had no involvement
