Columbine HS shooter's mom...
by Guest Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:11 am
....mom of Dylan Klebold speaking out after 13 yrs. I always wondered what the parents of the two shooters were going through. Losing one's child is a nightmare for any parents, but losing a child who murdered many others and despised by the whole world is unimaginable! But however the child is, a mother's love remains the same, i guess. The pain and the love comes across clearly in what the mom said. I almost cried reading the article. No parent should go through that.
......when she discovered that her son Dylan was one of the shooters, she
prayed he would kill himself. "I had a sudden vision of what he might be
doing. And so while every other mother in Littleton was praying that
her child was safe, I had to pray that mine would die before he hurt
anyone else."
In remembering that day in April, Sue Klebold explains the agonizing
decision she had to make when she realized her son was one of the
shooters. "I thought that if this was really happening and he survived,
he would go into the criminal justice system and be executed, and I
really couldn't bear to lose him twice. I gave the hardest prayer I ever
made, that he would kill himself, because then at least I would know he
wanted to die and wouldn't be left with all the questions I'd have if
he got caught by a police bullet. Maybe I was right, but I've spent so
many hours regretting that prayer: I wished for my son to kill himself
and he did."
Sue's answer is a revelation. She says, "I would ask him to forgive me,
for being his mother and never knowing what was going on inside his
head, for not being able to help him, for not being the person he could
confide in."
