I hear both sides and I can see how and why people feel and say what they do. All I can say is, some people are born to live sad, miserable and lost lives. We all need compassion; no matter how horrible that person seems. It could be any one of us.. parents, kids, siblings, etc.. Have some heart, people! You never know when somebody you love, if not yourself could live and die like that.. alone and cold.
