She'll never work again in the field she's spent years training for, she forever be labeled as a sex offender, you just have to wonder, what underlying problem made having sex with a kid seem like a good idea?

While I understand that this whole situation is a series of one bad decision after another and don't condone any of it, I do have to wonder about this girl and her mother. I find it incredibly tacky that she is on TV especially in the face of the "vigilante justice" her mother and brother had a part in. Furthermore, didn't she think that her true colors would be called out in such a public forum if she were not completely innocent in the whole thing?

And what if English is their second language? You're not going to gather that information from a username. I don't feel that it's our place as adults to berate them for bad grammar, maybe they struggle with it? In my opinion it's no better than attacking them for the way they look. I think they get enough of that by their peers. Being berated by an adult would sting a little more than getting a ribbing from your peers, I would think. I just feel that if we aren't in a position to help them, for example a chance meeting on a public forum, then we should not pass judgement on them without knowing anything about them.

What I find most disturbing in this forum is the adults berating the kids over their spelling and grammar and behaving no better than the kids.

You don't know their situation at home, you don't know their support system or lack thereof. I'm not making excuses for these kids but you don't need to exacerbate bullying by adding to it. I see my son and his friends and how they speak to each other. These are bright, intelligent kids but I can't understand half of their texts and that is THEIR prerogative as long as they can pull it together for school so don't lump everyone into the ignorance column just yet. If there is a problem with the education system then attack the school, not the child.

How about a whole harping gaggle of self-righteous adults telling your child they have no place in society based upon the way he / she speaks at 13 years old?

Give them a chance to grow out of it and stop writing them off from being productive members of society.

You have children from this school who are, in their own way, trying to give the other side of the story. While I disagree with their ideas I do understand that they are children and they are still in the developmental phases of their lives but you have grown men and women out there who are replying with attacks on their spelling, grammar, and sentence structure; even their choice of user name! I wonder where our children are learning this bullying behavior? Could it be from the parents who attack without consideration of circumstance?

And people have to wonder what is wrong with our children these days?

You have no good retort so you attack the child's grammar. Nice going, MOM. Sat, 19 Mar 2011 15:40:18 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/118277164.html#IDComment136064401
