Just my own musings on my thought process... I'm a Mom. Not just a Mom, but a Momma Bear (I even have a shirt and a wine glass embossed with Momma Bear, and that's actually what I'm called at work). My babies are grown now, but I am still FIERCELY protective of them. If you mess with my cubs, you WILL be met with severe consequences. I think that's the 'norm' for most Mothers, though.
I don't see that coming from Megan's 'Mom' AT ALL. So, perhaps I'm somehow feeling a bit overprotective of MB in that absence. And, YES, I see the irony of that, given that it's actually MB's baby who has been found deceased, not AB's. But MB just strikes me as such a child herself!
I suppose it may boil down to the fact that if my own daughter were accused of such a heinous crime, I'd be doing one of two things: A) Shouting from the rooftops to proclaim her innocence to anyone who would listen, and doing everything in my power to protect her; OR B) Dragging her sorry *advertiser censored* to the jail myself, if I thought she were in any way involved in the death of my precious grandbaby ~ at knifepoint, if necessary. I've not seen anything of this nature here.
