Schindler's List 2005

1) Raise your daughter in an abusive family situation, causing her teenage bulemia.

2. Celebrate her marriage as a way to get her "off your hands."

3. Say nothing negative about her husband so as to not jeopardize her marriage.

4. Express no regret when her bulemia causes her collapse into a coma.

5. Celebrate a medical malpractice settlement.

6. Complain when the malpractice dollars are used for her care and her husband's education as a nurse to care for his wife.

7. Threaten her husband with revenge when no malpractice dollars are given to you.

8. Drag your daughter through years of legal litigation in effort to get your hands on malpractice dollars.

9. Slander your son-in-law in effort to bias the public and legal system to adopt your position.

10. Allow the religious and political right wing to use your daughter for their own hypocritical and despicable purposes.

11. Betray a parents' obligation to care for your daughter by denying her the dignity of peaceful death.

This is the first I'm hearing of it.

Her heart attack was caused by a potassium imbalance due to chronic bulimia. bulimia generally starts in the teenage years at home and stems from acute lack of self-esteeem.

Abuse was claimed. Link? Proof? Anything? Just because you are a teenager with low self esteem doesn't mean that you are abused or even that you don't have loving parents.

The rest are bad enough, but to claim to want the best for one's flesh and blood, and then allow the media whores to broadcast her pathetic image and violate her privacy when you know she would disapprove is almost beyond redemption.

I can't help but wonder if the dearly departed feel embarassment or shame or anger when their private lives are blasted across the airwaves.

about her personal life. I haven't heard much about Terri's father. At what point in Terri's life did her parents divorce? Is she a religious woman, and what about the step-father?

My personal view is that Mrs. Schindler is possessed by vengeance.

...they are giving the husband. They seem to be slandering him ruthlessly.

But, teenage bulemia is NOT evidence of parental abuse.

the correlation is very high.

And abuse includes psychological abuse, even more then physical. My wife is a guidance counselor and sees this type of thing every day.

At every stage of her life, the Schindlers have failed Terri as parents.

The fact the Michael has stood by her wishes in the face of relentless attacks and bribes of more than $1,000,000 speaks volumes about who really loves this woman.

The review of research literature related to the topic of family dynamics and eating patterns of female adolescents and young adults reveals strong correlations between these two variables. Many studies have been done on this topic.

In various forms, the findings of these studies indicate that family psychopathology has a significant impact on the development and pathology of eating disorders in female adolescents and young adults. For example, independent variables include family adversities (such as codependency, conflicts, and a mother and father's weight related influences and behaviors) and family characteristics (such as enmeshment, rigidity, lack of conflict resolution, and over protectiveness).
