I love how everything with T&A revolves around Haleighs strong will. She ate green beans because she LOVED them, she didn't wear a shirt because she was "hot natured" I really at this point have no doubt that these two can justify what Ron did because Haleigh sassed off and Ron lost it or something, like some way he would be justified losing it over a mouthy child, but is anyone surprised, I mean this was a "man" who needed the state of Florida to show him the proper way to hit his kids with his hands, yeah I know smacking kids and knocking sense into them is considered ok to some blah blah blah, but in the context of this story, I find it disgusting. I look at Rons kids sweet little face and want to cry that Daddy used force to deal with problems, and now one is dead. The same Dad who would think nothing about shoving 11 inches down someones throat, showed Tim Miller, the DIRECTOR of TES how he was going to blow Mistys teeth out the back of her head, I mean seriously, how can anyone forget all this, and just think Ron is a good guy? Oh, and he SHOT a MIRROR with a GUN. Maybe Mama Neves should have told Ron about the 7 years bad luck thing.
Something is mentally wrong with Ronald Cummings, be it genetics, or abandonment by his own mother for whatever reasons she had for that, so I can see why Teresa would help Ron because she has to feel a lot of guilt for being a crappy mother. It all starts with Teresa, all of this.
