I wish she'd bottle whatever SHE's drinking and sell it to some of the parents hereabouts who don't seem to care WHAT their kids get up to!

How many of us know at first hand about youngsters killed driving while under the ..... influence or age limit.

I remember reading that and thinking, "Does that mom read Glenn Osborn's stuff?" :)

"Totally uncool parents who obviously don't love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for 3 weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet."

Bravo! About time adults, and parents especially, started acting like the role models and guides they're supposed to be.

There's a 17 year old young man who drank and drove. He slammed through an intersection and into a car driven by a classmate. The car burst into flames. He pulled her out but she sustained horrid burns over most of her body and is kept alive on support. No hair, no fingers, no eyebrows or lashes...just a terribly disfigured shadow that would've probably been better off dying, as horrible as that is to say. I know I wouldn't want to live like that.

That mother probably saved her son from what that very remorseful 17 year old boy faces for the rest of his life....the knowledge of what he did, that can never be undone, to a lovely girl. Good going, Mom and Dad!
