Matthew Cushing: A Compulsion to Kill

How Not to Raise a Serial Killer

Today, Michelle and fellow mom, Claire, sit down to discuss Matthew Cushing and his unthinkable crime. When Matthew was just a young college student, he woke up one day and decided he needed to travel home from school to kill his stepfather... instead, he killed his entire family. How did this young man from a good family end up doing such a terrible deed? After meeting him face to face, Michelle has some theories about what may have been going on in Matthew's brain, and it's something that all parents should be aware of.
