Interesting: His eternal life is immediately before him.

And this "child of the media" wants 30 seconds of immediate sexual gratification rather than an eternity of life.

If he is dead now, I doubt he considers those 30 seconds very important right now.

Notice also that his "instincts" told him NOT to tell his parents, nor hospital administrators ...... Another case of "morality" and "good conscious" coming from instincts deep in our souls.

Lighten up. Poor kid. When I was 16 it seemed like the most important thing in the world. Why would this kid feel any different. I am more concerned with this kid dying of cancer whithout any friends. Looks like some close to him did what they could to ease his passing.

Maybe so! He obviously knew that his parents et al would NOT approve.

For all the people that want to blame his parents for what he did behind their backs.... as teens what exactly did they do behind their parents back ?

There are so many things naive parents DON'T know about their kids..unbelievable. From PTA parents, to Pastor parents..they are naive. LOL Quite comical really.

With all the blue-nosed prigs running around, do you really have to ask why they kept it a secret from everyone?

If he is dead now, I doubt he considers those 30 seconds very important right now.

And you would know this because? Ever been dead or dying before? Ever had sex before?

I doubt if a merciful loving god will condemn him to hell for getting a piece after he was given a long painful terminal illness. People that want to criticize this kid for this need to get a frigging life.

That is the view of the terminally righteous and the dogmatic.
I prefer to see it as the very human reaction of wanting to prevent pain and anguish for those we love whether that pain and anguish are justified or not.
Another reason to admire the kid.

Are you among those who live the reverse?
You one of those who must call everybody you can think of at 3 a.m. when somebody dies?
