“He went horse riding, and skateboarding with friends. He had taekwondo classes. There were regular holidays in Spain. But he was a a spoilt brat, the favourite. He pad was controlling, manipulative, narcissistic, and always got his way.

“He became a monster because that’s the way he is, and now he’s using the 4 blame game?’
