For the most part, but don't you think the parents have to take some of the blame for challenging school policies and potential punishment?

maybe, but the school backed down
I mean...okay so the girls have a sence of entitlement...probably passed down for generations, the parents think they are golden, and the school gets walked all over by the parents. Should we blame the grandparents for the way that these parents are raising these kids?
Although, in the same situation, I would have been way worse.
I still think this is "filler" this is in no way "real news" I mean seriously so much more important stuff is happening than this

Not many, I hope.

I see it this way.
If one of the Fab Five members attends a college/university with a cutthroat Greek system -- I really wouldn't be surprised if they're doomed.
True, the names may be forgotten, but McKinney North HS on a rush application would definitely turn on a few lightbulbs, especially at an in-state school. I'm thinking McKinney North has hundreds of alumnae at various schools who are current collegiate members of sororities. So Lisa's right. It only takes one!

I think whoever said it 'only takes 1' is very very true.
If, for whatever reason, they decided to go to UNT, (not saying that is what is going to happen, but a large % of students & Greek students are from this area) I can't think of any group that would want them.
Even if they went to UT/Tech/A&M I think the same thing would happen. With "McKinney North" on the high school line, and the fact that at least a couple of them left hs early ... it doesn't take a genius to put these together (i.e. McKinney North HS & being a sophomore come rush time next fall)

Best thread ever.
Many of the above posters could stand in for these "mean girls".

I agree with this - look at what happened with the Glenbrook North girls.

Do you mean:
'In 1991, Wanda Holloway asked her brother-in-law to hire a hitman to kill the mother of a girl who was competing with her daughter for a spot on the same Texas cheerleading squad. Holloway wanted the mother killed because she determined the competing girl would be so upset by the murder of her mother that she would drop out of the competition. Both girls were thirteen at the time of the plot.
She is known as the "Texas-Cheerleader-Murdering-Mom."'
Holly Hunter starred in a movie based on this story.

Also, don't forget Willing to Kill: the Texas Cheerleader Story! It's one of my favorite Lifetime Movie Network staples...they show it at least once a month!
Woooo...Channelview High!

I vaguely remember the Glenbrook North girls... didn't a couple of them end up in a sorority somewhere?
