I have been estranged from my son for 8 months. His decision, not mine. We can raise them the right way but they make their own decisions. It's soul wrenching.
My son is involved in some kind of "religion " ,not Christian. He has separated himself and his children from myself and his siblings. Haven't heard from him in a year.
@@brendaoconnor7813 my prayers go out to you. Nobody understands this kind of pain until you are in it for yourself. Every family gathering is a reminder.
Prayers to you.
@@brendaoconnor7813 you should try to understand him. Maybe he is right
My daughter, for me. I understand completely. It is soul wrenching.
From England ... I'm now 62 , at the time American series HIT hit the UK...how wonderful to have a sneak peak into America .Kate Jackson and Susan Blakely , it was the 70s the wonderful era to me x.....Kate in Charlie's Angels .....Susan in Rich man poor man ...so much underrated actresses loved this film
Like you said, it is a "sneak peak." It is entertainment, and it just offers a tiny bit about the many cultures and subgroups in the US.
Masha Allah🌙From Europe,.. I'm a few years younger, the 70's , Charlie's Angels / Rich Man Poor Man, just a few of that amazing Era,..and I agree with you Kate Jackson and Susan Blakely are underrated,..😆
😅😅
It doesn't get better than Kate Smith and Susan Blakely. Anyone remember Rich Man, Poor Man?
Kate Jackson
I remember being a kid and watching the old lifetime movies with my mom. Miss these classics.
انت منين
Where are you from?
Same. I miss my mom.
The duty of a mother is to teach moral and spiritual values to her child/children, when they reach maturity is up to them to live those values to the fullest. If they refuse, it's their own fault; the best a mother can do is never protect defects and wrongs of the children or she will raise criminals instead...
Yep, gotta nip it in the bud and teach as things happen, not be gone till dinner or later, need to be around the children when they are under 25 for males & 20 for girls. They have so much to learn as being born in the image.
Sadly as they mature, they make their own choices and some really bad ones despite being raised in a Christian home 😢
Oh really , ! You don’t say..
I feel like i saw all the adds for this then...but never actually watched it. Kate Jackson is underrated
Kate Jackson is always a quality watch ❤
It's awfully difficult being a parent, let alone a single Mom. Tough love is a sure winner 🙏
I love you dear I like mature womens
So really true 🥺👍🏼👊🏻💯💪🏻🦾
Some people are indeed wrong about what tough love even is. My mother claimed that is what she had to do for me is show me tough love but sadly she showed me that there was no love for me at all and apparently it hadn't been since I was small and adorable. Love is definitely not a word. To love someone of any type requires an action. Any fool or trained monkeys can say I love you and be convincing. But to not even allow your own 20 yr old child a sandwhich and to steady try and find out where you are every minute for the soul purpose of being nosey and doing unspeakable things to purposely make your life and your daughters life a living hell... My friends are so blessed their mother's are their very best💯 friends and they make beautiful memories daily. I haven't had a new memory with my mom in close to 30 yrs and the saddest part is would you believe she lives only 4 mins away from where I live and my brother only sibling lives next to our mom and he decided he wanted nothing to do with me after he was married and began a family he literally woke up 1 day and has hated my guts every since and even my parents don't understand why. I guess he learned from the best. My oldest child and only daughter was killed at age 20 in 2014 and my aunt whom was def a mom to me for the 30 yrs her sister wasn't being mom and she passed away a year later my awesome strong daddy passed away in December of 2020 and my grandmother on my mom's side just passed away 4 month's ago at the age of 93 and she was my hero and superwoman🦸♀️ no doubt I miss her until my every being just pure hurts she was my world. She loved me no matter what and often said she would have never believed that she raised a daughter who could hate her own children especially children who wanted to be loved. My parents called this tough love. They didn't have a clue that it was hate. You can't just never speak to someone again in life and expect them to believe you love them bcz love is patient and love is kind. It knows no end. And love will win every. Single. Time!
Majority of women choose to have fatherless kids . It's sad
You liké incest with son.hhhhhh
What a great movie ! Altho its the hardest thing a mother had to do unfortunately he would kill again. So sad 😞 he made everyone's life upside down and now they can be at peace and someone else won't lose thier loved one by his hand . God Almighty
kate jackson grown so much in her acting..im so nailed to her facial reactions in every scene....and looking into her eyes..it tells all her emotions....man...she really gave her best in every role..special this movie..im a fan ms jackson was superb.. chad allen on the other gave a very strong performance as the villain finally ..and i see so much talent in him and a wide range of emotions which he can portray in the future.. did jane seymour has anything to do to his talent? for sure well guided..
Missing this amazing movies 🍿 ❤️
You are right
A mother's unconditional love❤
Unfortunately thats not always the case, some 'mothers' shud never have kids!!!
Kate Jackson is such an accomplished and charismatic actress. What a beauty.
A good film! Thanks for uploading
Psychopaths always put the blame on others. They are really good actors and can convince many folks of their blamelessness. They use guilt as a weapon. Parents usually neglect the other kids in the family as most of their energy goes in covering up and denying the misdeeds of the evil one. The fact is, a psychopath never changes. No one else can take blame for the missing component we call the conscience. A bad seed is a bad seed!!
Great movie!!! Kate Jackson has always been great n her movies!!! Thanks for this another free movie!
Sad story but interesting film.
Great movie great cast!
Thank God the courtroom scene was short. Good movie.
In the beginning of the story I can relate. I had to drop my son off at the airport yesterday for college. I won’t see him again for a couple of months. I’m sitting here counting the time I left him. Miss him so much already 😢😭😭😭
Hang in there, look back at all you have shown him in many many hours of your life. He will do fine.
Also look back at the photo albums of him as a baby thru growing up. That was your baby. This new young man you have raised now is returned to God who gave him to you to raise, know that you did well. Be proud of what you have done. Great job mom. Proud of you.Amen.
Try now to have an adult relationship with him. That's going to be cool & new for the both of you. Try it you will like it mom. It's like now you have an added five hours a day for what you want to do. Hobbies, reading, writing, painting, a garden. Baking. sewing, quilting having your own library. Have fun, I'm positive you will get used to it. 🎂✈⚓🎨🪡🧵🪅🪆🧸🏸
You liké incest with son
Thank you so much for uploading. I enjoyed watching it . Brilliant acting😊
You are right
Awesome movie
Wonderful cast, great acting, good movie.
A mother can't endure seeing her son to be in jail even though he really murdered somebody else.She knows that she can not spend a minute without them in comfort.
I know that was hard as a mother to do the right thing and so sad she was trying to save n believe her son that she frgt about her other two kids...then blamed herself for her son being the way he is..STRONG COURAGEOUS MOTHER
Kate Jackson so elevates this movie. She makes the movie. I miss seeing her in films and tv. She may have more to give the world and herself than she knows.
If she's not a christian than she doesn't
Agree. Kate Jackson is such a wonderful actress! One of the best out there!
Thanks for the upload.
I can't even begin to comprehend the emotions that comes with your child being a murderer.
Thanks for sharing
good movie... thanx for this xxx
I wanted to be with you
Wow has mother we have to pay attention May God help us all 🇨🇦
Turns out the mystery of the mind given free will to choose evil or good !
Excellent, but so heart-breaking. To love one's son so deeply and to find he is so evil inside. One will always wonder why.
One clue is she finds out he commits armed robbery and doesn't even scold him. Another is, all she cares about is herself. Deep, dark narcissist.
Awesome movie ♥️
One of the better movies for it's time, very real and great acting 9 out of 10
the plots are better back in the day
Kate's acting was excellent as ever, the guy playing her son, not so much.
Besides the nitwit son, his acting was GARBAGE....
I agree
❤❤❤❤❤
Great movie! Heart wrenching. Kate Jackson did a fantastic job. ❤❤❤
Nice and crazy movie i watched it twice at the same hour👍🏽,this guys .
Good movie great cast. 👍 Thanks for sharing.

@@maxine1200 are you british?
@@Winter_Soldier_edit Yes I am 👍
@@maxine1200 nice 🙂
Thank you, good movie.
Merci pour le partage ! 🐞🦋🌹
I feel like the petals on the bench in the last scene represent the last good memory between mother and son before everything went downhill with him.
It's her son's fault why he was again jailed,the verdict should had been death,rightly so,that's the proper conviction,the harsness and brutality of the condition he has gone through while imprisoned didn't reform,softened his outlook in life it didn't transform him into a much better person which he should be,instead,it made him a MONSTER,which should be KILLED,not pampered with,it's good she has accepted the hopelessness about his son and testified,GODSPEED,FEBAMETHYST
Wow you feel that
Good movie
great movie thank you for the upload really enjoned it
Kate Jackson the best 🤎🤎🤎
Thanks for uploading 👍👍👍
Loved the plot twist in this movie
Me too..
Me to brilliant well done movie with Kate Jackson and of course chad Allen what a movie 🎉🎉🎉
Wonderful.
Good movie.Kenny was evil and manipulative.
His mother tried to protect him but neglected the other kids.
Great movie
The mother is a major enabler. She obviously never held her son accountable and let him get away with everything.
So
Diese Mutter war nicht weise,sehr naive
she turned a blind eye to his wickedness,unable to embrace the TRUTHS about his son,that bloodied shirt revoltingly jerked her to REALITY,which made her testify against her STUPID MORON of a son
Not sure this movie actually portrays that.
Absolutely. She's disgusting.
51:10 couldn’t help but find that odd. I was in a truck listening to a gruesome murder and I’m severely traumatized. Her reaction is as if he’s three and just stubbed his toe. The denial through love is insane but I don’t even want to imagine what that experience as a parent is like.
Interesting movie. I love the older lifetime movies.
Same with me
Same here
Me too
Me too
Same I'm like old
Thanks 🙏
I can’t believe a loving caring mother like that can create a monster that his son is.
She wasn't loving, she was narcissistic.
Idk, maybe another hundred commercials would make this better.
Sad but a good movie
Where's the Dad ? Children need FATHER s!
13:50 so weird seeing a commercial Chinese checkers board. I have one that come from my great great grandmother and great aunt it's hand painted and the checkers are wondog seeds again hand painted into the different colours. It's been played and used for generations now. ♥️♥️♥️♥️ Miss great aunty Laurel died aged 99 and remembered coming to NSW in huge ship with sails (I never met great great grandma)
A Kate Jackson movie in 201. Awesome lady & Star in her own right.
great movie
Good movie!!!!!
Very good movie and the message is important. Parents can have many children or few and all those children will make choices of their own. Sadly too often we blame parents for their children's choices. Also one child out of many will turn out evil ... why? Choice.
Being evil isn't choice 🙄
" Back in the day" wasn't anything better, people were ignorant, mental health was being mentioned only for very visible signs and problems.
@@JuditaHoffman. Mere mental illness doesn't cause someone to bash another human being's skull in and enjoy the cracking sounds. Evil entered into the picture somewhere.
@@Bigfoottehchipmunk
Mere mental illness doesn't? What is "mere mental illness" for you, what's the meaning of that? There's a lot of them, some mental illnesses are very complex because it is possible to have multiple diagnoses at the same time. Some appear in different periods of life, some remain deeply disguised and appear periodically. Some are genetically predisposed, some are acquired either in childhood or later in puberty, or who knows when. I know that enjoying in sounds of cracking up human's scull is not a choice - are you serious?
@@JuditaHoffman. I wasn't diminishing mental illness. I was saying evil is always involved in such a murder as depicted in this movie. If you want to call actual evil thoughts mental illness, well sure, it certainly isn't mental wellness, and that person needs help, but they are a danger to themselves and society. Brutality and malicious behavior is lawlessness, and it should not be patted on the hand as "mere mental illness".
@@Bigfoottehchipmunk I understand completely what you're saying. People don't want to admit there's evil in the world because that denotes Satan, and God, and right and wrong. Much easier to pretend it's something else.
very good movie, and sad. When people choose to do wrong it doesnt matter whether they had good parents or not. For some reason her son chose to be bad.
Very judgemental statement
he deservre
@@veronicamoody3981 how is this judgemental they only speaking about life and choices kids make no matter how their parents were I don't see where you came up with this being judgemental
in this case looks more like alcohol was the trigger which starts the bad behavior and second was who you choice to hang out with
Sad but very nice ending :)
Very nice movie n btfl story worth watching
Great mom and nice movie 🍿 she loves her sun so much ❤️❤️❤️
She had two other children that needed her, but a murderous son kept her in denial, pathetic
That's a very good movie, rallye. And no happy end for her sun, but with a good end for her.
Vary nice indeed💝
Great movie!!!!!!!!
Watch from kenya🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Karibuni Kenya yetu hakuna matata

Tuko
Kate Jackson - Charlie's Angels is a good actoress. ❤
she was too good for that fluff show.
never hang out with an ex-con mate... NEVER !!!
I knew that Kenny was sus right from the start; they chose the right actor for this :)
Kate Jackson is one hell of a good actress. How come I never heard of her before?
What? she was one of Charlie's Angels in the seventies hit show
you must be young
Scarecrow and Mrs King with Bruce Boxleitner 💖
She was an Charlies Angel
Effectivement c "est drôle ça......
"you could feel his skull crack again and again" mum if you can't see the truth now you never will.
Kate Jackson and Susan Blakley are only a month apart in age .
Nice movie
Interesting film, thank you .......
well first thing this writer to this movie forgot is when someone is released on parole they are not to be around another convicted felon so 2 convicted felons living together wouldn't happen because one of their parole officers would find out and they'd both go back to prison
True and why would she help him stay connected to a ex fellon, especially allow him to live inside her house. She acting so stupid and concerned. She should have put him out immediately when he said that they stole his truck. She acting really dumb putting his feelings first.
@@jamiebattie5427. Some mothers will do that for their sons, whereas they would not protect their daughters.
Very Good Film towards the middle of the movie the beginning almost made me not watch it but over all Great Film
Wow,ce film bun !!!👍👍
Nice
Good movie👍👍
Thank you infirasion...
The mom plays n this a great actress
The mom seemed Ok with Kenny stealing the guy's truck
Geeze I didn't see any creepiness at all just loving mom with her son
THAT'S AII
not creepy,but,somewhat ODD,too close for a mother and son,which shouldn't be,a fair distance would be enough
Been 19 years stands as a single mom . I love my son
Kate Jackson
Is that supposed to mean something? I swear our Society has been so dumbed down people can't even properly convey or complete one thought.
Aku tahu betapa sulit menjadi ibu yang baik, karena yg baik saja ada orang-orang yang mengatakan dia jahat bahkan anak-anak yang disayangnya berbalik membencinya 😢😢😢
Kenny and his mom were eerily close
The shoulder rub scene? ....I don't know. Some folks are just naturally closer than others. 🤷🏾♀️
He was her first born!!!!
Parents indeed are tasked to make their children God fearing and good citizens. But they are also exposed to the environment. We guide them to be associated with good people, beyond that, it is their choice but still based on how we taught them to be. Sad story for a famiky😔😔😔 072422
Sometimes they go their own direction no matter how much good you try to instill in them. I know.
It's about time that Mother started behaving like a mother. Mothers are more than people who bake their children cakes. Her walking away when her son was in prison and lying and trying to manipulate her was very late in the game but at last the mother grew up and began to expect more and better from her son.
That's fictional film I think. That never happened.
There's no such thing like " mothers behaving like mothers"
@@E-Kat yes, mother behaving like a mother is a real thing … covering for your child versus holding your child accountable for their own choices.
Judgmental, much?
☺️
The pain of a mother from birth and always till the graveyard.
Not at this mothers stage yet but feel her pain of a daughter that’s a ice addict now another little girl brought into this world my heart goes out to all its not a once a year for Mother’s Day but a daily life for some.
In public I defended her behaviour behind closed doors I make her well aware of her faults.
Sally rose, I hope you didn’t let her know that you defended her wrong doing in public otherwise your good parenting will just goes to the drainage.
@Sally rose
Sending you love 🥰
If you do it with them they'll do it to you. Point of view? If you defend them in public they will continue to believe the facade they show the public as well. Embarrassment is temporary, recovery can be forever.
Prayers for your daughter and grandchildren. Advice from me being that I had a parallel childhood to your granddaughters, the best help you can give is making sure the children's basic needs are met, even if it's from you, if you have faith pray and invite your daughter to church, if there is anyway to do a small intervention to show you care and that her kids need her, even if you don't agree with her life don't ever make the grand kids suffer for that broken relationship if you can, and lastly, when your grandchildren are older be as honest as you can, because they are hurting and suffering through this addiction too, and letting them know that you know and care and try with their mother will mean the world to them, and will let them know they aren't alone with this big nasty "secret". My family just acted like nothing was wrong, just let her be in the bathroom for hours during family outings, not talk about the issue or acknowledge it, just left me to deal with the daily of the addiction and what it did was made a barrier between me and my family, my mother and I eventually started doing drugs together because no one was helping stop it and we had to get clean on our own with no support from family or friends (because they were all druggys) and it was hard and we are so lucky we made it out. My mom and I are very close now, but the rest of the family acts like "well I turned my back on you when you were a kid so I don't owe you anything or have any ties or responsibility to you as a person or family member" and because I was the one that wanted to talk about the issue of the family and they left me alone with it then as a 12yr old and now they always turn their backs on me and I'm the outsider of the family now. When I look back, my favorite childhood memories were at my grandma's, every weekend until I was 8 I would Go the block to her house and spend time with her, making waffles, watching old Christian VHS tapes, making funny home videos, playing Jack's or pick up sticks, and reading a book at night before she would snore the whole neighborhood out 😂 cherish those babies, try to be a tough strong mother because now your fighting for your daughter and your grand babies and its worth it, any time you have the chance to show your daughter what damage she's doing to the family, her own children, do it in a Christianly way, pray for them, and try to occupy her time with good things, fairs for the kids, play tubes at McDonald's, go look at the pets at a pet store, go to a park, try to do whatever you can to pull her out of the funk of that addiction, if she sees the world how it really is again as her babies are playing and smiling and enjoying life she might realize that's a better feeling then any nasty street high. Love and prayers are going up for you and your family, your grand babies, and your daughter. Be strong for them because in the end, when she pulls through, it'll be so worth it!
I love watching lifetime movies
Especially old
Very good
Really good movie but wish they would've shown what his sentence was, hopefully life!
the mom is 72 years old now, an og Charlie's Angel
Yes, Kate Jackson is an original Charlie’s Angel. The first actress they cast and the co-creator of the show. The name and concept were her ideas. And what a great actress she is!
I feel REALLY sorry for this mom!! But ever heard the expression "a leopard is a leopard and IS a leopard, and they NEVER change their spots?" Instead with time, their spots only get darker!! Excellent movie, thanks guys!!
