In his first interview since his Feb. 8 arrest for beating Rihanna, Chris Brown tells Larry King he doesn't remember abusing her and is still shocked the incident happened.
"When I look at it now, it's just like, wow, like, I can't — I can't believe that — that actually happened," he says in the interview, set to air Wednesday.
Along with his mother Joyce Hawkins, Brown told King how he grew up in an abusive home. Hawkins said her husband beat her – and Brown said he knew it: "I used to be scared to go to bed."
But he said he is not blaming his past for the attack on Rihanna.
"Nobody taught us how to love one another. Nobody taught us a book on how to — how to control our emotions or our anger," he said. "I wish I could have changed that night."
The Chris Brown and Rihanna issue was very tragic and each will be affected by it for the rest of there lives in different ways. I think only time will tell if they each learn their lesson. Rhianna on how to see warning signs and get out sooner rather then later. Chris Brown will learn that violence is never the answer.

I wish them both the best and I see hints of redemption in his words, but I think that he's still putting the blame "out there" or outside of himself, his "oh, wow" like it was a hurricane or tornado, not something that he himself did. Therapy would help. Personal transformation would help. But taking responsibility has to happen first.

Since he is a celebrity and he is on probation. I will accept that his words were crafted for him. Therefore, I will let his actions speak for him. But I do know that counseling is part of his probation.
