Serious question, what would you have done differently in their shoes knowing only what they did? Just tell your kid they shouldn’t enjoy childrens shows and everything else that they liked so much? Tell them their hobbies are gay then forbid them from being interested in them? Most of what they could’ve done would’ve made Ciara a lot more mentally ill but at least got her away from the bad environments she was in. Perhaps a worthy trade off, but I get why her parents didn’t just tell her she wasn’t allowed to use the internet ever again and ship her off to a boarding school for juvenile delinquents. It would have made her a lot worse before she ever had a real chance to get better. They thought parental support and love was enough, and they were too old to understand the internet fully.
