I got banned for suggesting intimate relations with another girl while married was fine :) So STFU, I win the 'lamest reason for a ban of the year' award... unless I get banned again, then this one takes the cake :D

What happens when you get banned? Are you still able to view the site and simply not post?

Lol, everyone loves to make assumptions. For all we know, the girl could...

- have hated her mother
- have even done it on purpose
- not feel guilt
- feel bad, but cope with it quickly and put it behind her

I especially like the 'poor dad' comment. The article didn't mention a father, is every single household a dual-parent household?

I find this funny and sad at that same time.

I'm laughing at the girl yet feel horribly sad for the mother.

Then again this is a freak accident. If we all found these things funny, the world would be twisted, and if we were all sad about them, we couldn't cope with other things happening in the world.

Be glad this wasn't on purpose, seriously.

Where I live, yeah, almost every household is a dual-parent household.

BTW, everyone is making the most obvious, natural assumptions. Me & my Dad aren't exactly pals and close and all...the guy hates me and thinks I'm a major disappointment. But yeah, I would be pretty depressed if I had anything to do with his death.

Hell, I would be depressed for a week if I ran over a cat or something. You sound really cynical. You think a normal 15-year-old kid can live knowing that she had something to do with her mother's death? Or ANYONE's death?

I'm just making the point that we don't know. Half of you have probably decided whether she had a cat or dog, what its name is and what kind of music she listens to.

:confused: I parallel park probably around 3 times a week
