Goodnight to both of you!
Because they're rich and spoiled. Mountain Brook, Alabama, is one of the single wealthiest towns in the entire United States.
The MSM is trying to play it down, because they've (rightfully) been excoriated by many for usually only going ga-ga over missing people when they're cute white young females with families that are well-connected in their communities (and can thus easily start the ball rolling on press coverage). And there's no hiding that Natalee is (or was) young, attractive and female. But the MSM can completely cover up the fact that Natalee's family, like those of practically everyone else on that trip, is loaded.
Nite Bridg -- thanks for your work.
She may just be another "runaway bride" ready to make a book and movie deal. Just call me a cynic.
Than why arent more women abducted into slavery or prostitution from Aruba? Maybe because most women know enough not to go to bars in foreign countries and leave their friends to take off with three guys they really dont know.
And this Mother saying, no I dont blame the so called chaperones, when my Grandson went on a class trip to Barbados, mothers went with the kids PLUS they had chaperones and yes they bed checked etc.
18 year olds alone at a bar were drugs and prostitution is running rampant well than who's fault is it? The PARENTS!
If the parents havent taught their kids the dangers and how to avoid them by the time their 18 than its the parents fault.
Than suddenly a tragedy strikes and suddenly the parent is on TV day and night becoming the "celebrity". Ridiculous!
Beth the mother blames the Aruban govt, well this publicity has not hurt the Aruban economy at all we couldnt get a room there when we tried, and to blame an entire govt for her guilt of letting this girl alone in a foreign country without proper advice and chaperoning is outrageous.
The only one not profitting is the VICTIM!
I agree with your dad.
