hey, guess what? unless i missed something, verbminx is not a psychiatric professional. she's not certified to give Houseguest the help she so desperately needs, and it appears Houseguest doesn't want that kind of help. not only that, but Houseguest's disregard for the Kid's well-being is bordering on abuse. in reading this post, i see someone at the end of her rope because there's nothing she can do in this situation.
also?
The thing is that you don't necessarily have to attach a value judgment to the mental illness. It's not like "Joe is a bad person, Joan is crazy, Bill drinks too much," it's more like, "Andrea is a brunette. Jake is married. Houseguest is mentally ill." It's just a fact. It is what it is. You can know that someone is 99% insane and two pills away from declaring themselves a god and trying to fly, and still like them and be friends with them and stuff.
this is hardly the "cowardly" behavior that you claim is in this post.
