Cindy and George Anthony on Dr. Phil
Having watched the Anthonys on Dr. Phil, I still stand strong in the opinions I have always had from day one. I believe that Cindy did not have any inkling about what Casey did to Caylee. I believe her when she says she thought Casey was keeping Caylee from her because Casey was jealous that she loved Caylee. I believe Cindy and George that George was not there the morning Caylee was killed or died.
And Dr. Phil sees it like I have said along: Cindy is in denial. There is no doubt about that. Cindy Anthony clearly has denial problems and was an enabler, but it could be her mechanism of survival. Denial is not always a conscience decision, or willful deception. I wish people could understand this. Is Cindy trying to minimize Casey’s behaviors? Absolutely. Is she unable to accept the truth? Absolutely. Is what she says about Casey ridiculous? Absolutely, but does it mean she is purposefully trying to deceive people? No. Cindy is in true clinical denial.
Most people, Cindy included, wouldn’t cope knowing they produced a psychopath.
