Another news story about a parent imprisoning a child. These stories always make me wonder how many others are out there in awful conditions undiscovered. What posses someone, particularly a parent, to do that to another human being?

His excuse doesn't make sense either. If you have a family member with disabilities that are truly unmanageable, then as hard as it would be, you would throw your hands up and say "I can't do this" and hand them over to welfare services LONG before... Locking them in a ****ing tiny cage .

That's definitely a twist on Japanese Anime.
It's truly awful though, how on Earth did he get away with it for so long?

What a terrible 'life' for that person,better off dead than living like that,poor soul,the parent can't be all there either to do that, the boy was probably just being an angry teenager.

I think you have to appreciate Japanese culture to understand why this can occur, i expect the man would be trying to save face and honour and its a different world their in terms of how they view disability etc
You cant just think about it from a UK pov And this happens an awful lot in China for example |

(That's also a big part of the high suicide rate; its seen as more honourable to end it than to admit to mental health struggles and ask for help) That said, it still doesn't excuse it nor does it explain locking him in a painfully small cage, rather than just in a bedroom or something.
