That woman must be the most insecure saddest woman in the world to do something like that, not to mention mentally not all there. How sad.

it is sad when people feel the need to go to some extreme, makes you wonder what tragedy occured in their life that moved them to such bad decisions. truly unfortunate is the fact that one of the 'boys' she may be restricted from may be her own child, we have no means to think that prior to this she was not a model parent and the media has it's own interests to serve in how it presents a story. Stories like this should give us pause to consider if we are being told the truth, the whole story, or if our emotions are being manipulated for some other purpose. Critical thinking is a skill that can be developed through practice, stories like this to questions of how Colombus could be credited with 'discovery' of somewhere with an existing population of 250 million or more. Not attempting to justify the woman's actions but I imagine there is much more not being said.

What else could there possibly be? Honestly? I can't think of any way the press twisted this story.....she either did or did not take her clothing off in front of underage boys.

never argued the fact, never even said it was proper, but you can walk up and kill someone, or you can kill someone to protect yourself, circumstances do matter. What do you know of this woman's life? Anything? Her motives? What she did was obviously wrong, but why she did it might mitigate the circumstances and unless your a mind reader you have made a judgment against a person knowing only one side of the story, I find it sad that so many people are willing to make decisions regarding another person on so little information. It is especially bad when the media, having other motivations for how it presents a story, is your resource.

I just have no clue what you are saying.

You are saying either we shouldn't judge her because of her last life experiences?

Or we shouldn't judge her without more information?

Either case....if something happened to her before, big deal. Lots of horrible things happen to millions of people. No excuse.

Or the information thing.....unless that information happens to be "man forces woman to undress in front of underage boys" then she is still at fault, and I hope she goes to jail. In fact, I don't think she should be raising any boy.

I just have no clue how else you think this story may have happened that would take her out of the wrong. But everyone has their opinions, including me.

everyone has a right to their opinion, thank goodness the US has constitutional protections allowing someone to defend or protest circumstances before peers and before being judged and told they need to go to jail. It is good that lawyers have the ability to dismiss so many jurors for prejudice, decisions made without all the facts are no more than best guesses.

You know that kid has a line around the block outside his house of guys that want to be his friend now. He will no doubt be the most popular kid in school.

reverendsterlin I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one. Under NO circumstances should a mother strip for her son and friends even worse they are under the age of 16. No excuse is acceptable in this situation. The ONLY way i could even consider it ok is if her life and the childrens lives were in danger if she hadn't stripped, but i doubt that was the case. Even though all you guys think it's kool and wish you had friends that had moms like that. It's just wrong to do and in front of your own child.

Rev. I do understand your logic.... Not to pass judgement before knowing ALL of the facts.. But unless this woman had a knife to her throat, I see no excuse to do what she did to minors.... Theres a very thin line between what she did, and molestation.. I really dont see any other excuse for her actions
