I guess if I was a lib I would see the need to turn everyone into a victim as well.
As for the kid shooting the criminal, he did what he had to do to save his and his families life. He deserves a lot of praise.

Your mistake is making it an either/or question.
I’m glad you Agee. The mental health industry is supposed to treat people with mental problems, not recruit them to drum up business.
The feminization of the American male.
Sknyluv: Samm:Do you think he doesn’t recognize that his action saved his grandmother’s life? It doesn’t take a shrink to know that even a kid can figure that one out.
I’m sure soldiers returning from war recognize that they were killing the “enemy” but still battle with PTSD and other psychological effects. And they are adults.
Bad analogy. Cops saving a grandma from a thug would have been closer.
The kid didn’t see the thug die.
Bingo.
toreyj01: WuWei: Sknyluv:Hope this kid gets counseling to deal with such a traumatic event. Can’t imagine having to deal with that at such a young age.
Yeah, that’s just what he needs - a shrink.
He does need counseling. There is a reason kids cannot drive cars, get married, vote, drink alcohol or join the military. They are too young to handle it.
Taking a life might be the necessary thing to do, but it can be hard to process as an adult, much less a 12 year old child. At the least, some contact should be made with mental health providers to make sure the child is handling this appropriately, and there should be some follow up in case it troubles the child later on.
What does a shrink know about it?
You do realize they often create problems, right?
There was a brief discussion about the placebo effect in another thread. That applies here as well. If a shrink is brought in to talk to you, there must be something wrong in your head, right?
Probably red flag him for life.
The feminization of the American male.
Talking with a trained professional after a traumatic event is seen as “feminine”. What a narrow and backwards way at looking at the world.

He’s not broken. Why is it a “traumatic event”?
You don’t get to red flag him.
Why is defending ones life considered traumatic?
Are all males required to become beta males in the lib utopia?
Why is defending ones life considered traumatic?
The act of killing another person is considered traumatic, not the act of defending oneself.
Are all males required to become beta males in the lib utopia?
Yes. Biden signed an executive order.
Are all males required to become beta males in the lib utopia?
Yes. The patriarchy.
coolidge:Why is defending ones life considered traumatic?
The act of killing another person is considered traumatic, not the act of defending oneself.
By whom and why?

Who says?
JayJay:Nah its pretty clear…
To a lib.
To anyone that isn’t intent on looking at people via (usually misapplied) labels.
There might be a few combat veterans that would disagree with your assertion.
The days of “walking it off”, “rubbing some dirt on it”, and “keep it to yourself” are long gone.
No they aren’t.
Seeking help for problems and talking about issues is the new thing.
Apparently, the boy now has to have an issue?
He saved his grandmother and rid the earth of a thug. Perhaps all he needs to know is not only did he save his grandmother but maybe someone else’s mom or sister in the future.
Not everyone has to have issues they want to talk about.
There might be a few combat veterans that would disagree with your assertion.
And if they have been trained to kill, I might then agree with their assertion. In the case of a 12 year old boy, I would consider the act traumatic.
