And how much aussie taxpayer money and effort went to her “rescue”?

No...she is a child and has no business alone on the high seas...as evidenced.

So that she needed rescuing in a dangerous situation is confirmation she is a ‘child’ and had no business out alone?

I had no idea that Amelia Earhart was child! Or maybe it was just unfortunate circumstances and her age had not much to do with it.

Even an older, more experienced captain can get into trouble on the sea. Should we only rescue those over a certain age limit?

Evidenced by what? That she almost made it? Had she not been dismasted, the worst was pretty much behind her.

I agree, this young woman was and is being exploited by her parents.. this could have cost her,her life..

Her father is supposed to protect her, yes even from herself and her dreams if necessary .

Shame on them

Obviously this was addressed to you, Crim. And for you others addressed by this post...grow up and get a life of your own.

As much as the Aussies decided to spend. They didn't HAVE to respond, but they chose to do so.
