A 14 year old mother. WoW, just WoW. Seems she had already started on the path of making bad choices.

A 14 year old mom unreal... it is very sad that her child is going to grow up not knowing her mother why oh why is there not a program to teach the ones in the ghetto right from wrong.

So...in their secular public education...what lessons did they pick up from Darwin and survival of the fittest?
All the laws that guide society are meant to not let this happen...yet, laws & customs did not guide these minds.

Good thing they didn't see the Tick Tock dare of stealing cable from a 13.7KW relay station.

You wouldn’t believe how many homeless or addicts were killed trying to do just that.

If she was home spending a lot of time with her baby, as the story stated, she may have lived to see her 15th birthday.

Not really. Maybe the kid has a chance now instead of growing up to be an ignorant criminal slut like her mother.

I would guess Joy Riding. The good children were going to bring it back.

They were just moving it for the rightful owner.

Why here Grandmother obviously failed raising the kids mother


but as Parents we can only do so much, teens are going to make dumb decisions

were killed when the stolen Kia they were riding in crashed Monday morning,

Most times it's the driver at fault for an accident like this. It's a shame they randomly decided to catch a ride in a defective stolen vehicle to passively watch while it chose to crash. Real gun shoots man vibes.

I feel for KIA because they didn't ask for this negative publicity and the average consumer is too stupid to understand that.

KIA is used to negative publicity. They have had a superior product to most of the imports for the better part of a decade, but will probably never lose the image of the cheap car that breaks down so often they had to invent a new style of warranty to cover it.

It doesn't help when you have dealers like our local KIA dealership which in MY OPINION (don't sue me) is disgusting (dirty building, nasty bathroom, broken toilet, bad coffee) and I was flat out told by a salesperson that they will never sell the electric KIA vehicles because their owner doesn't want to invest in the training or infrastructure to support servicing them.

Sounds like that dealership won't survive. Wouldn't KIA be looking to replace an owner like that? It's certainly not in their best interest to keep him.

Last Kia I had as a rental was a total piece of crap. Tons of body roll, exposed screws etc.

Don't know what to tell you man, I bet it wasn't a Telluride or a Stinger or Forte or a Sorento or a K5. Maybe a base model Optima, Sportage, or scraping the bottom of the barrel with a Rio? Every make has their duds, but KIA has some of the most highly rated vehicles in most categories now (obviously not trucks, offroad, or luxury).

Hmmm, considering the gestation period is usually nine months, and Ms Harper gave live birth at fourteen years of age, what are the odds that her bebe was conceived when she was thirteen years of age?

But no matter, at neither thirteen, nor fourteen years of age is a minor child considered mature enough to consent to sexual intercourse, so who raped the B!tch?

It was a minivan, and probably 15 years ago, it felt like a Soviet block era vehicle.
