Yeah, some people are really teaching their kids good, solid values. Do whatever it takes to win.

I think this ties in with the "Today's Unchallanged Youth" thread.

Yeah, I heard about this story a day or two ago. It almost belongs in the thread "America's Unchalleged Youth..."

Simply another case in point: bad parenting.

Heard this story earlier today. Talk about pathetic. If this is how we're raising children in the US today, I'm glad my parents are from Italy which makes me a dual citizen. When I get old, I'm heading to one of the socialist systems over there

I love how people always try to justify what they did. Really sad...

How about "America's Pathetic and Unchallenged Parents," now that's a good topic.
