While it may seem that this woman who has abused and neglected her children would be a candidate for help, justifying her behavior and not holding her accountable for her behavior is a gross injustice to her and everyone she comes in contact with. If we excuse this behavior without making her accept her role of abuse is to condone. She can not receive "help" if she does not own up to her faults. The first step in getting and receiving help is to admit there is a problem. This woman it seems is beyond that, and therefore could not ever be helped. She abused her children when she had them and she continues to do so by ignoring them again. The children may still "love" their mother, but it is undeniable that they are much better off without her. Her stepmother may be better off getting "counceling" for the children instead of venting her frustrations on the web. Maybe this is not a proper forum for this discussion, but this topic needs to be talked about or else there could never be a solution.
