Could be very true. Her parents get accused of controlling her life but Lanza's parents got blamed for not controlling his life more. Which is it? Make up your mind. Can't have it both ways. Just like Lanza's parents, these parents were going through the legal process of getting her treatment. Both these kids lashed out.
I know smart good kids who go off to college and totally spin out of control. Failing grades, loss of scholarships, can't be bothered to show up for class, in bed which whatever wanders by, drugs, spending like there's no tomorrow and lying to their parents about everything under the sun. If mom asks what they did the day before they go crazy accusing mom of spying on them. If dad asks how their grades are they go crazy accusing dad of spying on them. Excuse me, but it's the parents who have sacrificed to put them in college and give them a good future. The parents deserve their money back if she's pulling this bs. Not another dime to her and don't expect Christmas or birthday presents and don't show up on their doorstep acting as if nothing has happened begging her parents to pay her rent. I don't see her buying herself a new computer and phone that doesn't have "stalking" software on them. If she's really an adult who doesn't need her parents then get her own cell phone account instead of being on daddy's account. It's not exactly easy to drive 12 hours or more to stalk her like she's claiming. If/when she crashes and burns, so be it, but when she does the parents will be blamed.
I gather it was her who took this to the media. 'Nuff said.
“I gather it was her who took this to the media..”
I wondered that myself. A young woman in theater and now her name/picture/acting clips are out there. Perhaps she has learned that any publicity is good publicity? With this case.. time will tell. If she makes it on her own then so be it. If she crashes and truly does have the beginning symptoms of a mental disorder then that will surface in time as well. I do hope she realizes though that she will go through the world without her parents. Sad...
Well, given that she is scoring these lead roles in musical productions, I don’t think she is necessarily the falling-apart type of student you described.
