But back on topic that&#039;s tragic but they are blaming this on the fact he is a Hikkikomori and not on the fact of his mental state.What bothers me is if he goes to jail how will he handle that?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I at one point was a NEET (fruitlessly searching for jobs at a job center) for 3+ years. I had been a hikikomori during several points of my life, including 7 months at the age of 12. That was one of the results of my parents NOT &quot;cuddling&quot; me. I as a very young child developed several very dysfunctional survival strategies because of being beaten and constantly being berated and hit for not doing well enough (well enough being nothing below 100%). I as a child already was terrified that I might some day have to &quot;kill&quot; one of my parents in self defense (Ah, the innocence of childhood when you think that you can accidentally kill someone just by stabbing them once without skilled anatomy knowledge). If they had been any harder on me, or had not mellowed up the older they got, I would have likely have attempted to kill my tormentors. I already hit back a few times after I got old enough. To trying to make their not hurting me more permanent would not have been farfetched, as I did not see how I ever could have escaped them. After all, according to them I was their possession, and as such there&#039;s only one way of escaping that if the owners do not want to give you away. I still am very pissed off at how the other adults all around me as a child failed me. They were too dazzled by the image of perfection my parents gave off. Because clearly, I was just an ungrateful brat that wonderful and generous couple were unfortunately cursed with.

tl:dr, in short NEETs and hikikomori situations are &quot;more complicated than you think&quot;. 

Especially as the article says that the son was mentally ill. MENTALLY ILL.
It was probably chance that the one he killed was his father. If he had a job he probably would have killed an annoying coworker or something.]]></description>
