Joann Phillips, mother of Barry Loukaitis, on how her son’s behaviour changed during the years leading up to the shooting
‘‘When Barry was in sixth grade, he was a happy kid - brighter than most, popular, with a flair for writing. He was really friendly; he was outgoing. He was in student council; he had friends that came over a lot.’’ But things started to change when he was in seventh grade at Frontier middle school. ‘‘He didn’t have friends over as much anymore and started slowly backing away from people.’’ Joann explained how she could understand her son’s behaviour, because she also had suffered from depression. She thought the divorce between her and Barry’s father, Terry Loukaitis, might had wounded Barry who was 12 at the time. By eight grade, Barry had become so withdrawn, gloomy and angry that his parents had to order him to do fun things, such as going to the movies. “He just totally isolated himself. it was like all of the sudden he didn’t like people, he didn’t trust people; he thought all people were bad.” Those feelings that Barry felt, intensified a few weeks before the massacre. His mother had filed for divorce and revealed her plan to commit suicide in front of her ex-husband and his suspected lover to Barry - but Barry urged her not to do it, saying: “Mom, just write about it. That way, you’ll get it off your chest. I don’t want you to die.” Afterwards, the teenager avoided his parents; he ate in his room - if he ate at all, and slept away much of the day.

“The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. Maybe they always have been and will be.”
