You make it sound as if GA and CA are dancing and laughing and counting their money, happy that Caylee is dead. That is absolutely not true. They lost their granddaughter and have gone through the complete range of emotions that anyone would have. Their grief, however has been complicated by this enormous case.

That actually describes what Casey did. Well,except it wasn't her money she was counting.
There are people in this world who are selfish. They love,but care more about themselves. They experience grief,but perhaps not as deeply ,as gut wrenching as others,who give their whole heart to a child.
I really can't say that I believe Cindy and George have grieved with the complete range of emotions anyone would.
Where I would expect a helpless grandmother to cry and beg anyone for help getting her grandaughter back,I saw Cindy angrily telling the viewing audience to get off their A$$$$ and look for her grandaughter!
When Tim Miller brought his team and oversaw thousands of volunteers ,looking for Caylee,Cindy Anthony bashed him in the media and left a nasty threat on his voicemail.
I can't say I've ever seen true grief from Cindy. I don't count the performance at the trial. Cindy heard that tape repeatedly in hearings and never cried before. Cindy's never been anything but difficult,arrogant, deceitful and mean.
My 15 year old son committed suicide just a few days after his birthday.We had 6 other kids,dealt with the coroner,detectives,CSI went through our home. There were questions from tactless aquaintences.
Over 800 people came to his funeral .Almost 3 times that to the wake.
I didn't deal with the same scenario Cindy did,but both suicide and the death of a child ,are considered complicated grief.
I tried to stick up for Cindy in the beginning. After a while I just couldn't anymore.
I really believe she loved Caylee,but based on her actions,I'm not convinced it was that deep abiding love .Maybe more like a pet you love to accessorize .Okay,maybe not that shallow,but somewhere in between.
I also have a son with medical and developmental complications (we had 3 ,adopted the youngest 4) .He knows no danger,doesn't answer when called and doesn't come back (he's starting to answer,though!)
He went missing one night and we did a quick run through the house then I called 911,my husband and older son took flashlights out to look around the property and a friend took his car to look around the street. I had to stay on the phone with 911 and was beside myself because I couldn't leave the house to look. My son had taken his wagon in the pitch dark out to the road with our dogs,and was pushing his wagon down the middle of the road.
I get queasy just reliving it. He was only gone a few minutes!
We now have an autism service dog who also tracks.
I know everybody is different,but Cindy has never shown that well of emotion that we normally see with the family of missing/murdered children.
All,just my opinion.
