In south Australia we have had 3 mothers kill daughters and it’s death mother behaviour… or family scapegoating behaviour patterns… police have launched a huge investigation… Charges have been laid over the deaths of three South Australian children - aged between six and 15 - after an "unprecedented" investigation into alleged child neglect. Three parents were charged today with manslaughter relating to the deaths of three different children after a task force was established in July last year to investigate the death of Charlie Nowland. The six-year-old was found unresponsive in a home in Munno Para and later died in hospita
In THE ONES WHO LEAVE OMELAS by URSULA… the torture of a scapegoat daughter… is a lovely deliscious death mother, maltreatment, healing, experience for the whole village… the scapegoat daughter from kangaroo island suffered a long painful ostracism and death , book Scapegoat by Ava Keyes and the book mobbing daughters
My mother had blissful childhood and beautiful looks… her scapegoating abuse death 💀 mother behaviour came from entitlement and extremely spoilt by everyone around her… she had no needs… her choice was to abuse one scapegoat child as it was fun for her and perhaps at times created a mild kind of sexual cohesion between mum and dad … dad adored narcissistic mom and provided her well and still does… these upper class areas are filled with huge island community and bill village supports and sometimes like the human just wants to. Abuse one daughter for fun and giggles 🤭
