But you don't think that those who believe Elizabeth ran away to have sex with a street bum and his wife are sick?

[Kip Lange]

I think she ran away.

How do you automatically connect the opinion that she ran away with someone believing she knew what the heck she was doing (she's a kid! she's confused!) when she did it? And how does this automatically lead to the assumption that we believe she ran away to have sex with a street bum and his wife? I don't know WHY she ran away, but I can speculate, especially if your sort of rhetoric typifies the parents' champions.

You have also, in other posts, insinuated that we somehow WANT Elizabeth to NOT BE OKAY. Are you not reading our posts, or something, or am I typing to an alternate universe here?

I believe she was confused, ran away, was taken advantage of by loathsome people, now she's back home, being taken advantage of by only slightly less loathsome people.
