More Kind Words

"I can't excuse Bethany's actions, but I can understand how she came to do what she did. She is a very caring, loyal and protective person.


When Bethany found out a girl she was babysitting was dyslexic, she worked with her to improve her reading. She helped prepare and serve Christmas dinner at her church for people who had no families to spend the holidays with. Her little brother had a friend whose bicycle was stolen. She found who did it, and told the thief's mother and made sure the bicycle was returned. When her sister was threatened by a friend's older brother, she pounded on his door, confronting him until she was forced to leave.


I would expect no less when she was afraid for her baby's safety. After witnessing the after math of the events of that night in January 2013, when one of the two men were involved threatened both Bethany and her little girl, all she could think of was to get her to a place where josh couldn't find her. She had only been seeing Terrance for a few weeks, but she had talked about how well he treated her and how much she liked him. He would have had that same loyalty if she hadn't been afraid for her child's life.


There is so much more to a person than how they react to a single event, however big or important that event is. "
