i-am-adam-lanzas-mother

This powerful essay is written from the perspective of a mother who is raising a son with mental illness. The author draws parallels between her own experiences and the tragic actions of Adam Lanza, the shooter in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. She discusses the challenges faced by parents of children with severe mental health issues, the lack of support and resources available for families, and the urgent need for mental health reform. The author urges society to have a greater understanding of mental illness and to provide help and treatment for those who need it, in order to prevent future tragedies.
