If you read enough news, you learn to spot the stories that will twist and turn, and go a thousand different directions. This was one of those, and so I held off saying anything about country singer Mindy McCready going on the run with her son. The story played out until they were found in a closet in Arkansas.
The child's father has a checkered past, including attempted murder after escalations with McCready. Still, he comes out of this sounding like the responsible one in an article in People. He says McCready needs a healthy relationship with her son, and that being hidden in a closet and taken away by men was a nightmare for the boy.
But why did she run with him in the first place? There seems to be a little going on there. She claims that her mother is abusive, and her mother denies it. The conundrum is that whether McCready is nuts or her mother is abusive, they would look the same from the outside. Still, an abusive mother would explain some of McCready's own instability and make some of this story make more sense.
If they find out she isn't abusive and this was all a trip on Mindy's part, someone needs to rescue that little boy. Even if only part of this story is true, that little fellow needs the best help he can get.
