<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Father&#8217;s Comments To His 13-Year-Old Daughter</h3>
<p>According to <a href="https://lawandcrime.com/crime/i-choose-my-girlfriend-over-you-father-dared-his-13-year-old-daughter-to-go-kill-yourself-causing-suicide-attempt-deputies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Law &; Crime</a>, Canales shared the harmful insults with his 13-year-old daughter over a phone conversation on April 7. The conversation reportedly occurred on speakerphone in front of the girl&#8217;s friends.</p>
<blockquote><p>“You kill yourself&#8230; Just don’t say&#8230;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Additionally, the man went on to call his daughter &#8220;pregnant and worthless.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;[Redacted] was further informed that Gared told [redacted] she was pregnant and worthless. [Redacted] stated that [redacted] is constantly verbally abused by her father. [Redacted] stated on Sunday, while cleaning after Easter fun, [redacted] grabbed her brother’s baseball bat and broke a portrait of her and Gared.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The daughter then reportedly responded by explaining that &#8220;she was going to cut herself and go deeper to get her father’s attention.&#8221;</p>
<p>Furthermore, texts exchanged before their phone conversation also revealed that Canales instructed his daughter to commit suicide.</p>
<blockquote><p>“[Redacted] advised she was telling him how she felt about him, and Gared said, ‘You’re not worth it. I choose my girlfriend over you anyway, and go kill yourself.'&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Canales&#8217; daughter then reportedly &#8220;gave herself minor cuts on the arm several nights in a row.&#8221; On April 10, she attempted suicide by taking 14 pills of Benadryl.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/06/19/gared-canales-captured-after-urging-daughter-to-kill-herself/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a>, the girl was rushed to a nearby hospital, where her stomach was pumped.</p>
<p>Canales initially avoided arrest for two months by fleeing the state of Florida to Massachusetts. However, <a href="https://lawandcrime.com/crime/i-choose-my-girlfriend-over-you-father-dared-his-13-year-old-daughter-to-go-kill-yourself-causing-suicide-attempt-deputies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Law &; Crime</a> reports that Canales is being held without bond. Furthermore, his arraignment is scheduled on August 7.</p>
