You hit it spot on. I noticed that as well. Especially when she was talking about how on the morning Jaycee was kidnapped, she was in a rush b/c she'd been late for work several times before and she didn't want to be late again. I felt her pain when she said she didn't o in the room to kiss her daughters....It was touching to see Jaycee comforting her mom like that!! Let's just say I BALLED through the whole interview....Oh and Diane Sawyer, she was TERRIFIC. She showed a lot of  empathy and came across VERY likeable and smart.

She actually appeared to be doing a lot better than her mother. I just hope it doesn't come back to haunt her later in life.

Jaycee is an inspiration to ALL..With all she went through.....I mean the woman is truly AMAZING....I think she'll try and cope and be as "normal" as she can let herself be!! She seems to have a good hand on it now..Well at least she came across that way!!!

This girl will never be normal.  Her life is always going to bother her.  I don't know if she'll ever be fully comfortable in her own skin....  And as for the animals, at the very least, be kept in the same type of situation they kept Jaycee in.... but of course with the department of corrections standing over them.  Build them a damned concrete cave outside.... even that is too good.

Is saying that prison is too good for these 2 animals, and that capital punishment should be on the table, wrong of me?

The depravity and mental illness within these 2 people...

I have no words. Sorry.
