Maybe PALIN decided that having a 'normal' daughter who was going through the same experience most young women go through, and was making mistakes because she isn't perfect, was no more of a reason to give up her GOALS in LIFE, than having a child with DOWNS SYNDROME.
That right there could be a REAL PROBLEM, especially if the MSM tried to make a big deal out of it.
OOOPS, they did.
What YOU may see as in insurmountable problem, doesn't seem anything but another ant hill to Sarah Palin, from what I've witnessed.
WINNERS are like that. They see STEPS instead of WALLS.
Well, maybe you are getting her perspective right.
