Support Network for Anthony family

[okiedokietoo]

Once the A's become truthful with this whole thing then MAYBE I can soul search to support them. If they can't help themselves (especially Caylee) then I can not help in supporting them under any moral obligation.

Thank You!
If all their efforts were to find Caylee, yes but when the "KC mother of the year martyr" stories start - nope

I really feel sorry for this family due to the loss of Caylee. I cannot find support for them just yet due to the way they attack everyone that is trying to help bring this baby home. I cannot even imagine how they must feel knowing deep down (whether they admit it or not) that their child killed her.

I do pray they find peace and a way to deal with the horror they face daily. However my support may come after they change their attitude and behavior. I supported Mark Lunsford in the loss of his child and still do.

I also feel really sorry for the Grandparents, their life has been destroyed. As a grandparent myself, I know I could not deal with the horrible thing that has happened to their precious Caylee. I hope and pray that they can find their way to the healing process, this will be a long hard road for the both of them.

Please don't lynch me!
I did a little soul searching last night. Fortunately, none of us have EVER been in the position in which G&C have found themselves and therefore will never know what motivates their response. But watching NG last night and hearing the "protesters" (which is a ridiculous call name for a lynch mob)-I see them more as caged animals in a box that gets increasingly smaller everyday. Yes-they are grasping at straws/yes-they are hanging on to very thin threads of hope/yes-they lash out and spew hateful criticism---but remember that the light of their lives is gone...vanished....completely disappeared---and the fact that she was missing for 31 days before they even realized it has eaten them to the core. I think they would be much more willing to "cooperate" if the people that needed info weren't villianizing their every move. I think we should all say a little prayer for the Anthonys-a prayer for strength and clarity. Perhaps with enough positive energy moving their way-some good will follow. Just a thought.

In the beginning, people DID reach out, with compassion, and sorrow for them, but one by one, these people have retreated from the hatred and lies spewed by these people.
Right now, Maybe Cindy's therapist is all they have for a reason.

Prayers and peace to the Anthony Faimly, no I do not agree with thier behavior at all, but it never hurts to pray.

Ive already been lynched so here I go...

Ive spent time with them on 3 occasions. George even took his missing poster 'car magnet' off his car and gave it to me since I wanted one. I visited them to support Caylee, not praise them for their actions or opinions. They were touched by that and none of us can imagine what they are goig through. Please note--they have not even visited Casey in jail since she was indicted.

George and I stood aside talking. He told me personal family stories of things Caylee would do and how she called him "jo-jo". He shared favorite pastimes and memories that he has recently been reminded of.

When I was there, I left my opinions and judgement aside. Yes, I joined Texas Equusearch to help find Caylee so that should speak volumes as to what I believe happend to her. but, I promised the Anthony's what I belive is true for all of us--we look for Caylee alive everyday. Don't you look twice at brunette toddler girls?

Anyway, they are grieving grandparents IMHO. I hope that soon they can find peace.

I too hope that the Anthonys will work towards finding peace in their lives.

I was brought up in a family of four children. We were poor, we worked hard on the farm and we were taught values. Out of four children 2 turned okay but one is a drug addict and the other is a self centered pain in the next..My point, the parents cannot be blamed for everything. I don't agree with what they are doing now, of course not, but I do believe they are scared to death and confused. Would I wish this on anyone? NO..I think I will take the advice of others and remember them in my prayers. It can't hurt me, and will probably make me feel better.

Thank you. I can learn from you.

Look, if you don't want to support the Anthony's don't bother posting on this thread. There is conversation and debate all over the forum about their behavior.
The topic is support, if you don't want to offer any then don't. Not supporting them is totally reasonable.
The negativity and bashing is over the top in this forum and it needs to stop.

Thanks JBean for such a great post!

I agree 100%.

I would absolutely love to be a support for the Anthony family. I don't hate them, nor do I think they are horrible people. I do have empathy, compassion and great sorrow for their loss of little Caylee. I cannot imagine how they are coping given the circumstances of it all. Not only faced with the loss of their Granddaughter but also their daighter at the same time!!! They didn't ask for this nor did they bring it upon themselves. I do believe that they are suffering an endless amount of pain and sorrow right now that none of us could possibly imagine unless we have been in such a state ourselves.

However I do believe that they would need to take some baby steps themselves beforehand in helping themselves out of it. It is so difficult because it is like they are in a very bad predicament with no way out. Someone said earlier "boxed in" and I would say it seems so. Very sad indeed.

I keep them all in my prayers because I was taught to be a kind, loving and forgiving person. Even when I am screaming, hopping mad!

JMHO

 

[Macushla]

Even Det. Melich asked everyone to keep the Anthonys in their prayers in one of his posts.

I hope that somehow, some way they can find peace at some point, perhaps when this is all over. there is no doubt in my mind they are living a nightmare - one that none of us could ever even imagine going through. I hope they have friends/family who are supporting them the best way they can - even if it is with just a hug. Can anyone look at CA and GA and not think they are unraveling before our very eyes.

 

[Baznme]

I do pray that their Lord will give them the support and strength for the days ahead. They are going to need it.

I'm glad you were able to put your personal feeling aside and spend time with GA and CA. I applaud you for that, because I don't think I would be able to do the same no matter how much I might like to. I do think they need support and I hope that one day they are able to put this nightmare behind them and remember only the good times they had with Caylee.

Bless you for joining Texas Equusearch and searching for Caylee.

 

[tracy87]

The Anthony's are going to endure the worst punishment for the rest of their lives. Caylee will never return to them, and they will always have a doubt/suspicion of KC. Even if KC is acquited and walks out of jail a free woman, marries and has more children, nothing will ever replace Caylee. And Geo and Cin will always have that wonder, that what if and will ALWAYS worry about a repeat performance from KC.

i think what they are doing is wrong, but they will endure enough pain and heartbreak from the absence of Caylee...they have very little to look forward to in their lives.

i have pity for them.

 

[metalcrystal]

I think for all of the Anthony family their reality is more terrible than their nightmares, and that includes KC. I can only imagine how horrible that must be. I include KC because I don't think she ever meant it to go this far.

Hey Clocks Tickin,

I believe there are plenty of greif support groups out there for George and Cindy once they come to grips with this situation being that they have lost their granddaughter.

If Casey would just tell the truth so that they could begin the process, their lives would be much better.

I have a granddaughter close to age in Caylee. I can't be judgmental and say how I would act if this happened to me.

Again, the key is their daughter telling them the truth for their own benefit and there is tremendous doubt that will happen. I don't think they will seek greif support until KC tells them herself that Caylee is gone. And she does not care about her parents emotions,that is clear.

Like I like to say, don't judge someone until you've walked a mile in their Land's End mocs.

 

[JaJo]

Clock's Tickin, I was very troubled also by those vigilantes outside the A's home. This is still the U.S.A. and innocent until proven guilty. They had no right to do what they did to the A's. I would have been petrified if that was me inside that house.....and I wouldn't have felt protected by the LEs either.

 

[JaJo]

I think the A's have not only lost their granddaughter, but their daughter, too. How can
they EVER look at her the same way again....whether she's acquitted or not. Casey will be lucky if they don't hate her guts for putting them through this nightmare.
