However, I agree with the other poster above who said that 10 years ago, without the media hype, this would not have been a big story. The trouble is that it has become a big story...and is out there as an example. Our children should not see that anyone can tell lies, hurt others, have total disregard for being mature, responsible adults, and just be totally self-serving. This is not the type of children we want to raise. This is why we have such trouble in the world. Everyone wants to do their own "thing" - even if it means telling a lie - and then expect that if someone gets upset, they should get over it. No one wants to accept the consequences of their own actions anymore.
