know this guy is bad bad driver

I'm sure he's innocent. It's all a mistake.

Hey, Hey, Heeeyyyy....it's Revvvverand Barber. And he's going to tell you a thing or two.

All this talk about...

"Another sad case of a child not brought up properly with love and guidance, a child likely neglected and abused. Social services--this is your legacy." The apple dosn't fall far from the tree... Stars and music...

So what is the excuse for the four Apex teens?

Bad parenting and they probably had both parents, apple doesn't fall far from the tree?

These teens are old enough to think for themselves and know the price that they will have to pay and having a father, were you are from, music and all these other curves people want to throw in don't always have anything to do w/the choices that are made. These ideals are why some teens do what they do, they play on the intelligence of others/system. And when parents learn to teach their children that music is an art, a form of expression, not a way of life and teach them real moral than maybe they wouldn't mock artist/tv.

your right on the money Gravy, Those were the words my father used to say to me. "Before you do ANYTHING you better know what's going to happen and what repercussions YOU will face!" Needless to say I didn't do things that I had to answer for. Which is what is wrong with society today no one answers for their reactions. No common sense at all.

Life-goes-on - You really need to cite some of your references that you draw such broad conclusions. 75%(??). Are you speaking about all US families? Even if the number "varys" some, I do not think only 1 in 4 US families has a fatherly influence....signed a proud father of 3
