Excerpts:
| quote: | | Bailie said the first thing Ben asked for when he was returned to his family was a snack. Then he asked to play video games. |
| quote: | | Shawn seemed to have had every chance to escape during his captivity. He was left alone for hours to ride his bike, play video games and walk past missing-child posters showing his own age-progressed image. |
Yeah, he was obviously really suffering having been placed under such stressful conditions. Let's see, he didn't have to go to school, and he could just play video games, or go out and do whatever he wanted, all the time. It's such a big surprise he didn't try to go home; he probably didn't want to go. He was obviously very relieved to be returned to his family, where the first thing he asked to do was the same thing he was doing lots of the time while "kidnapped."
But of course, modern society has trouble digesting the reality of the situation, so we're going to invent some made up fairy tale about how he was "brainwashed" or some such . The web of bull is already being written:
| quote: | Terri Weaver, an associate psychology professor at Saint Louis University, an expert on post-traumatic stress disorder, said children in such situations kick into survival mode, "doing what needs to be done to keep yourself going day-to-day."
The case is reminiscent of the Elizabeth Smart kidnapping. The Salt Lake City teen was taken for nine months by a religious zealot and passed up several chances to escape.
Stephen Golding, a forensic psychologist who examined the suspect in the Smart case, said captors often establish control over their victims through fear.
"People are led to believe, through someone taking advantage of their vulnerabilities, that leaving is not an option, that things will get worse for them or will get worse for others," Golding said.

Apparently "doing what needs to be done to keep yourself going day-to-day" now includes playing video games.  |

Never mind spending time with his own family... GIVE HIM VIDEO GAMES!
Stupid kid needs to get his priorities straight. He should get a snack and then a nice kick in the teeth. |
