    I try to teach my son that it's never too late to do the right thing. Coming clean and being honest may feel scary, but it's the best way to solve problems. The Haldersons may have been shocked and furious with Chandler, but they could have all moved past it in the end. Chandler had no interest in honesty, and chose to take out the people who loved him the most rather than owning up to his mistakes.

    • @KT27RN
      @KT27RN Рік тому +40

      I totally agree… And to be honest I think his parents kind of knew in their hearts but weren’t admitting it…because they mentioned that the counselor sounded like him, they were asking a lot of questions, and none of his lies really made sense. So yes, probably would’ve suffered through their short lived disappointment talks possibly, but it would have been a life lesson to learn from and move forward. But it seemed like he was so disillusioned with his own lies that he didn’t want his little made up life to end. How someone could harm anyone like that, let alone their own parents…Just so cold. And he seems absolutely fine in all those jail house correspondence they made public.

His whole life was one big stupid planned lie.

      There was another case like this; older brother successful, younger faking successful college graduation. family goes out to dinner to celebrate, Dad gives younger a Rolex, son hires friends to ambush family on return. Younger's friends killed mother and brother, seriously injure father, son slightly injured. It seems like the lies were an essential part of him. In all of his px, his eyes look troubled. I'm not trying to blame the parents, but this kind of violence and attitude doesn't happen overnight.

    • @DJJahT
      @DJJahT Рік тому +24

      You bring up a good point though (not to blame the victims, no excuse for what he did), but maybe from Chandler's view (show said he was sensitive) and his reaction to their tough love was more like a lifetime of ratcheting up pressures and expectations, then maybe he oversells his future plans of excellence, aiming high for his folks, and when he has a hiccup and flunks out and his little brother is doing better than him, and his parents can't stop praising the lie he carries on, and then they put up the ultimatum showdown for him and he comes armed. So maybe let the kids know you can be more open to failure, it builds more character than not failing. Let kids know they are young and have time. There is so much pressure to get it right on the first try and make every leap or hurdle.

      Same. Everything out of his mouth is a lie. He’s had several fake jobs, fake injuries, fake illnesses…all for some type of manipulation or monetary gain. When his lies reach their zenith he does extreme things. One time (after a sisters engagement ring went missing) he was arrested after a su!sidal standoff in a park with a knife. Another incident of money going missing from family he claimed to hit his head and had amnesia. The hospital could find nothing wrong with him (though he kept insisting on phantom symptoms) and they negotiated a one way bus ticket to get rid of him. These shenanigans have been going on all of his life. His latest claim is he was attacked by a stranger (bro is 6 ft tall, big guy) drugged, assaulted, and now has aids (which he says no longer will show up on a lab test) and needs $ for treatment.
      I won’t let him near me or my daughters. I do worry that one day when he’s backed into a corner about his lies it will turn deadly.

      You're lucky to have parents who care. My mom and her sister tried to stop me from going to college because they were worried about losing government benefits. I went anyway. I had to because the lack of care in my earlier years caused me to get kicked out of highschool for not meeting requirements or something and forcing me to get a GED. I also had to find out how to get a GED on my own. Luckily, through some commercial i happened to see on day time TV while wasting my life away doing nothing!When the time came to take the GED test after the required classes i needed a ride because public transportation didn't go that direction. My mom complained THE whole time about having to drive me for that ONE day and having to be there and stressing me out while I'm trying to focus on my tests. I had to do multiple tests all day. If i had an adult in my life that cared about my academic career in grade school i wouldn't even have been in the whole GED situation. Instead, I was lost and drifting around on my own. Grade school seems like a complete waste of time looking back on it. I was completely ignored and left behind by every adult. I wish I had gotten my GED in middle school and been done with it because i learned absolutely nothing new in high school. And it's not like i could get a car because I'm not allowed to get a job or else we might become homeless she says. I'm still trapped. My only outlet is college. The only time i feel happy is at school or when I'm doing homework. I get the praise and admiration from my teachers and peers that i never received growing up.

When you let demons in your house, expect them to attach to you or your children. Anything can be a portal for demonic entities. Don’t let that in your home. Train up a child the way they should go and they won’t depart from it. How much are you like your parents? How old were you when you realized how much like your parents you truly are? What were his parents doing? Just some things to think about. Not saying his parents are to blame either. Agains, there’s that .1% that are just evil and nothing like their parents.

      @ilovebrandnewcarpets - Ted Bundy. Now _there’s_ an outgoing, charming, personable psychopath! I could go on, but you get my drift. You forgot two HUGE psychological characteristics….you should have included “LONER,” and “SOCIALLY MALADJUSTED,” and Halderson was NOT a loner, never had been, and he had a lot of friends and a girlfriend who loved him so much that she stood by him until the trial. Your comment is way too generalized and misleading….just because a boy or young man is shy and sensitive does not make him a murderer or serial killer! The difference is a serious, hidden personality disorder that Halderson’s parents may not have ever seen or suspected; as a psychologist, I would say I suspect that he’s a covert narcissist, because they can be very violent when faced with widespread disclosure of deception or wrongdoing, usually towards the people closest to them. I’d truly advise you to give up trying to peg people!

      He lied and manipulated everyone his whole life, including his gf.

    The family friend shows more emotion than Chandler. It is appalling how the son could go to mercilessly killing both his parents but at the same time meticulously hiding and burning down the evidences.

      I have a pretty strong opinion that parenting controls 90% of how a kid turns out. and 10% are genetic things that you cant control like anxiety or disease.
      I dont believe that people are born a certain way. Its all learned behavior. Mostly from parents with some being from friends as they get older. But the parent can control which friends they can have over, for the most part. So its just a huge part on the parents.

This is a case I will never forget!
