This is just so sad and it makes me wonder what is going wrong in our culture that things like this just become human interest stories on the news channels. Not too many years ago anyone who did something like this to a child would have, at the very least, been run out of town and had to change their names to hide from the shame. From what I’ve seen about this they don’t even feel that they’ve done anything wrong. Something to be said for old fashioned tar and feathers! May G-d have mercy on them ’cause I can’t find any.

This is indeed a sad story, but I think the girl’s parents bear some responsibility here as well. There are a lot of sick people in the world. Hardly a month goes by without the media reporting on a teen getting drawn into a relationship on cyberspace with someone who is not what they say they are. That fact should be pounded into every teen’s head. Since you don’t know who is on the other end of the words, cyber communication should be treated no more seriously than a game. You can’t control what people do to you but you can definitely control your reaction. Kids need to be taught that. So if you have kids, print this off and paste it above your kid’s computer. There is a lesson to be learned.
