I know,right?In her ms postings she went from being upset with her Dad earlier to,"I love my family",and I really think this baby had alot of do with it.JMO I'm wondering if this could have made her want to stay with Dad more.She said she was a Daddy's girl,she never mentioned SA,at all,mostly about her Dad.In 2010,she was living with family friends,relatives,Dad,gm and two times in 2010,maybe a couple of big incidents,not counting being threatened by SA in Feb.If she's lived mostly with CD the last month before being missing,I wonder how tumultuous it was in BD's house?Why did SA really go back to the house,was he mad?Mad enough to just leave work and go back to the house where she was alone,maybe to talk to her?I keep thinking he just looked at his boss and walked out,that sounds like he was mad.IMO
Bolded by me~~~~
This part really bugs me.
As I recall, Billie reportedly has stated that she allowed Hailey to live away from home "for a minute" to see what it was like.
For a child of Hailey's age to want to live elsewhere, other than home, not once not twice, but numerous times, in my opinion is a HUGE red flag.
Did Billie ever ask Hailey why she wanted to live away from home? Did she ever question her as to what she felt was either (1) missing in her home life that could be rectified, or (2) happening in the home that caused such a desire to be away from home? What were Hailey's responses to those questions, and what were Billie's reactions to Hailey's responses?
I won't go into long details, but when I was a young girl (I was 10 at the time) and my mother remarried for the first time, and the $#%$!#@#!@ that she married began molesting and then raping me, all I wanted to do was get out of that house. I didn't care where I went, or with whom--I just wanted AWAY. I had told my mother what was happening to me at the hands of that monster, yet she chose to believe his denials over my pleas and cries for help. I ran away every chance I got, and then was dragged, kicking and screaming, back to my own living hell. It took another 3 years before my mother finally GOT IT, but by that time I was already living in foster care.
My point is: A teenaged girl might feel like the grass is greener on the other side by living elsewhere ONCE or TWICE, but from all accounts, Hailey was trying to live elsewhere NUMEROUS times.
From what or WHOM was she fleeing?
There was something or someone causing this child to feel the need to flee in order to protect herself. I do not for one minute believe that this all-around good girl who loved her family was trying to, or did, run/move away for no reason.
Self-preservation is a strong motivator, and I firmly believe that Hailey's desire to live elsewhere other than with her mother and SA was exactly that--self-preservation. She was trying to escape her own living hell, in my very humble opinion.
