Now, apparently, the victim of this beating has lost most of her hearing in her left ear and some of the vision in her left eye.

And they let the little monsters out on bail?!?!

You are not being harsh, its the damn truth.

I was talking about this case w/ my study group today and I mentioned how at least one of the mothers was standing up for her daughter, and one of my group members said "who wouldn't stand up for their daughter?" I chimed in and said, "if my daughter was one of the attackers, I am damn sure I would NOT stand up for her. I know that I wouldn't have raised my daughter that way, and there is no way i'd condone that behavior." Harsh as it may sound, but if that was my daugther, she'd have to face the consequences.

Again, this is why i'm a believer in spankings. It might not always stop kids from misbehaving, but at least if they mess up, there'll be consequences.

Dr. Phil to the rescue

and now the five minutes of fame really starts...

That is really disgusting. The Dr. Phil show payed the bail of one of the girls who led the beating...presumably so she could come on the show. In the article it says that the Dr. Phil show regularly helps people out in this way so they'll come on the show. It also says the people that did the bailing out this time did so without approval, but I don't buy it; I bet the show is just saying that now because it's been made public.

Anway, the show is not going to air.

Not to be stereotypical here, but you know this was a suburban fight. Had this occurred in an "urban" neighborhood, there would have been a whole different outcome. ;)

don't let the sterotypes fool ya....

True, but the case with the 12 and 14 yr-old also involved adult(s). Obviously, the child did not stand a chance if she was "jumped" by the kids and the parents.

Edu....I have been involved on both sides of those types of fights coming up in life....sometimes it just doesn't matter where you are from...an @sswuppin' is an @sswhuppin' I don't care where you are...

I see what you are trying to say but sometimes it ain't always the case! heh.
