Who else is shocked besides me?

Sorry, I just have to know... does ANYONE else believe this:

story AT ALL?

This is an extreme case of a party gone wrong, and some teenagers not wanting to be held responsible and get their butts kicked.

A teenager that is/was a "victim" won't get in NEAR as much trouble as a teenager that had an unsupervised party where there was drinking, booze and sex involved. Would they?

Is this what we've reached in our society?

Everyone's a "victim" anymore, and no one, absolutely no one is responsible anymore. Only liable and punitive. From the Executive branch, down to the man on the street.

Well teens are not supposed to be nice and responsible, it's their nature to experience new things even if those new things are wrong. The hardest part is to keep up with them, to understand them, communicate with them and try to put sense into their minds. I work in a drug treatment center (http://www.widespreadpr.com/article/sunset-malibu-drug-treatment-programs-are-effective-ways-of-helping-drug-patients-2262-1.html) and I can tell you that teens are the hardest to deal with but in the end good things happen.
