some marketing agent reckons that boy can get $60k to have a party because of his 'immense people pulling power'. that is absolutely fked. where have our morals gone? is there a line where we say 'that is wrong, we shouldn't be encouraging this kind of behaviour'?
this boy is the epitome of the lack of parenting in our society, too much of the laid back attitude from the parents when it comes to educating their children. yes, i am pointing the finger squarely at the parents, make no mistake about it. had they brought him up with the way responsible parents would, there is no way a 16 yr old boy would even think about chucking a party for 500 and then run away, leaving the parents the neighbours behind to clean up the mess.
what's worse, some commercial firms would actually encourage these sort of behaviour and pay a working man's annual wage for that boy to keep up his way of life. they really ought to take a long hard look at themselves.
