I agree with the observations made previously. I believe sociopath is a good clinical diagnosis.
I also believe these girls illustrate our society's failure to teach kids to grow up. IMO I see adult kids who really need some hard consequences. I have no sympathy for them or their families. Maybe I'm just a grumpy old guy, but I see value in suffering for poor choices.
Thanks for the bandwidth.

...taught by poor example not to listen to and learn from the old folks, they don't listen to their parents...and get their values, if any, from what's cool at the moment...it does indeed come back to the family...whether the result is good or bad...it starts at home...and you're right, punishment is a thorough teacher!!!
But don't you know that punishment bruises their poor little psyche? And that they should be rewarded for all participation, no matter what the outcome is? We can't risk embarrassing or traumatizing our kids.

An entire generation of kids has been raised to believe they're entitled to what their parents and grandparents had to work hard to get. Rules don't apply to them. And they've got the right to do or say anything they want, without consequence. And a lot of it is our generations fault for coddling our kids.
