Sue Klebold breaks her silence. Seventeen years after the Columbine tragedy, she goes one-on-one with Dr. Oz. Sue shares her biggest regret as a mom, tips for spotting a child in crisis, and the one thing she wishes she had taught her son Dylan that might have prevented the massacre. An important conversation no parent should miss. The show airs Wednesday, February 17, 2016.

On what she would tell her son if he was sitting in front of her today, Klebold says: "I think I would want him to hear how I used these last 17 years to say 'I'm sorry I didn't know', and to try find whatever answers I can and to share them, and to encourage people to realize that what goes on behind the face is very different from what you think you're seeing, and can be very different and to be very mindful of that."

On how processing the evidence against her son changed how she felt about him, Klebold shares: "For a brief time it did, and there was even a moment where I felt that I hated him, but love is so strong, a mother's love is so strong that I felt there has to be reasons why this happened. You don't just suddenly become someone who is a loving conscious-ridden person, and do this. So I really began trying to understand what happens in the mind, what happens in the brain as one is going through a deterioration."

On her facing loneliness after her son's death, Klebold states: "I would still be the mother of a killer. I wouldn't change anything; I can't hide from this, and so I tried to embrace it and learn from it and accept it and see where this journey took me."
