Earlier this year, after he started getting in trouble at school, his parents arranged for him to see a therapist. He went to five sessions and was given a new diagnosis of anxiety and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder.
Sounds like he received some therapy, but this can be an expensive and difficult to access form of healthcare for many.
The mother was on CBS this morning and while the story is sad my wife and I looked at each other with the same question when the mom stated the teen shot himself. Gayle King would have been horrible to start questioning the mother on the gun question but you kind of wish she would have especially in light of the lawsuit.
