My heart breaks every time something like this happens and it could have been prevented. I shudder to imagine Alexis crying "Daddy please don't". The saddest part is not even that she died, but that this SHOULD HAVE BEEN prevented. She was brainwashed into thinking this horrible man was her daddy after knowing him only a few years. She never let go of that myth even to the end. This child deserved a real daddy, one who would protect her, NOT hurt her!
From everything I can tell she was such a sweet girl.
We need to do something. This has been going on in our society way too long.
- Step parents need mandatory background checks and parenting classes.
- Family Courts, Probation, Child Protection, schools, etc need mandatory education and accountability for blatantly ignoring red flags.
NEVER FORGET ALEXIS STUBBS!
NEVER FORGET JAYDEN GLOMB!
NEVER FORGET KARA AND CHADNEY ALLEN!
NEVER FORGET ANJELICA MARIE!
And all the rest... lives taken by criminal 'step fathers' who never should have been in their lives.
