"She hasn't proved she can do it yet. I really don't think her parents or anyone else has any idea just what she is facing out on the high seas.

Good lord woman...she has been on the high seas since January....she has sailed around the tips of South America (Cape Horn) and Africa (Cape of Good Hope) already on this trip. Her older brother, at age 16-17 solo-circumnavigated the world recently. You act like these parents just went out and bought her a boat and said "good luck". I think they knew what they were doing but "sh## happens"...like a 60 foot wave. Some of the best/greatest adventures/explorers in the world have died...it goes with the territory. I agree...it would be "safer" if we kept all of our children at the 'Y' and playing video games at home with mommy fixing them a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the background.....geez.

First of all, don’t call me “woman”! My sadistic exhusband called me that. Second I read an article that said her brother didn’t face near what she did and that his journey was a piece of cake compared to what she faced. And I noticed the reference to video games again. Its like talking points lately.
