True but that's 3/4's the way through high school, 3/4's the way through college, three more years to experience, three more years to learn. You can't necessarily say that 19 year olds are far less mature than 16 year olds.:shrug:

I read this entire thread and I do not see any cases of anyone being disrepectful to the family and believe me, people can be very disrespectful at times. It is only natural that the immediate family is sensitive about this being discussed in public. But, it is a very important issue and it needs to be discussed. Maybe a few other teens will see the pain this is causing the family and realize that their bad decisions can and will affect their families and not just themselves.

Both wreckless teen driving and drunk driving is a very serious issue in southern Maryland--more so than any other place I've ever been. It's an epidemic so much that Senator Dyson is forever trying to get teen driving restrictions imposed:

DeeJay and I have a friend who was hit head-on by a local teen female who crossed the line. Our friend lost both of her feet and alot else to boot. The medics thought they had a DOA when they arrived on the scene.

Keep a notepad and pencil handy in the car. If you see these kids hotrodding or driving wrecklessly, jot down the plate number and call #77 on your cell to reach the state police. You might just save someone's life.
ooo, you'll get some red from the sob sisters now

It is a terrible tradegy for the family. Of course the family is sensitive. Of course what she did was wrong. I would report anybody I saw driving drunk. Let's not blame the family, though. Let's put it as being a bad decision by a young girl and let it go and have some sympathy for the family that lost a child. How hard is that to do?

I'm not sending him red. I sent it to you and signed it. First time I've sent red. People should feel like they can get support from these forums when needed.

Questions:

1. Why was a 16yo out at this time of the morning?
2. Where is the parental supervision?

Not sure who posted it, but it is back at the beginning.

I do hope that a lot of teens as well as parents read this and hopefully see how much pain my family and I are in, but I do disagree with you that things were said that could have been said in a different manner. Everyone has an opinion, but we all have to be careful of how we express them sometimes. Just because none of you know me personally, does not give me or you the permission to disrespect each other. I am not saying that people were rude on purpose, but again I think that people really need to think before they speak so that they do not hurt others...and for those that don't care about other people's feelings, then I do not think they belong on a public forum....

No. Sorry if I misconstrued. (that's a really big word for me)
It's ok, I just like the facts being straight. When the pure facts vanish it all goes to hell, ya' know?
