Bristol Palin getting drunk under-age

Ok, so let’s look at what we have- underage drinking (unless you can drink at 17 in Alaska), FAKE Scissor Gang Mafia, gun use on the back forty, and baby Daddy (who says he doesn’t want kids on his myspace)! What was McCain thinking!?! He met with Palin 1 day before he picked her and obviously did no background check- Mr. Palin had a DUI, a 17 year old single pregnant daughter (shown above in all her glory), charges of abuse of power and I am sure this is just the tip of the iceberg. I did like Palin’s hair when she was a sportscaster!!

- Check out the pictures of her blowing up stuff and drinking with baby's daddy.

 

Why do you care what her family is like? Honestly? No ones kids are perfect. Most kids drink underage. Teenage pregnancy happens, because teenage sex happens, because teenagers are teenagers. Why should we care if Mr. Palin had a DUI? He's human! People make mistakes.

What we should really be caring about here is Sarah Palin's political experience. What does she bring to the table? Is she qualified to be VP? I don't get why people care about her family so much. Those are her private matters.

 

i dint know about any palin and her pregnant daughter until i read this read...

 

The only thing that matters in regards to her daughter is the fact that Palin policy supports abstinence only sex education.

 

So Sarah Palin's got an unmarried, pregnant teenage daughter - big deal. So Bristol Palin has experienced alcohol underage - big deal. It proves to me that they're real people facing some of the big issues that everyday voters have to face.

I'm sure, with the benefit of hindsight, the Palin's would have approached life from a different direction but shit happens. You can only play the cards you're dealt.

Anyone thinking a couple of minor indiscretions on Bristol's part makes her mother a poor role model is barking up the wrong tree.

 

I totally agree with CountryBoy.I see nothing abnormally for a 17 years old girl.The fact she likes to get laid or taste a drink just shows shes a 21 century teenager.

 

I have no 'problem with it' I honestly think the candidates children should not be on showcase.

The only 'problem' I do have is when the so called morality police who would shun and attack anyone else in such an instance turn a blind eye to it when it's someone they support, instead changing it into a 'good thing'

 

I think the fact that the Obama fans need to pick on children shows how close this race really is.

It also indicates the morals of the people who need to make such a post.

 

The posts in the different forums about Palin children has nothing to do with Obama. Obama has made it clear that he wants the smear to stop.

 

You don't think the McCain supporters would attack such an instance?

If you honestly believe that you're fooling yourself.

 

Anyone that thinks that Bristol Palin's behavior is Sarah Palin's fault doesn't have teenagers.

They don't listen!

"God made little children cute so you won't kill them. Then he made teenagers so you won't miss them when they leave!"

 

I wholly agree, Grim, with both paragraphs.

One, her kid is off the table. The only trouble I would have is if the McCain ticket uses her child as a selling piece for their agenda - and I am troubled to see some sniffs of this are starting to surface - then they can't very well say her child's problems are a taboo subject respecting this election.

To her child's pregnancy, it is also difficult for Gov. Palin to convincingly argue a strong abstinence-only sex "education" policy, when something like this stares her in the face. But that is between her and her conscience, I would say. I just don't like anyone using anyone else's personal pain for gain, period.

Two, you're damn right, that if Obama's kid or kids had experienced something similar, there would be an absolute tidal wave of pontification regarding Obama's "moral fitness" to "lead the country." There isn't a doubt in my mind, actually, based on the plenitude of smears otherwise.

 

why not? the point is that she opposes to educate her children about sex at school, and probably did not connect with her daughter about prevention and other thing that is necessary for a teenager to make good judgment. As a result she did not have the correct info. It seems that she also drinks. i do not know what is the legal drinking age is over there but for sure that also shows that they neglected the kids in that respect also.
just having a baby does not make you a good mother? Did SP knew when her daughter had sex for the first time? did she talk about sex with her? condoms?

 

Even if Palin didn't teach her daughter, it all isn't exactly rocket science. Most teens can learn it all on their own through hearsay, curiosity, research, friends and such.

Anyways, all the teaching and moralizing in the world won't make a difference if the teenager is determined to drink and do stuff .

 

Some questions to ask then:
1. what school does her daughter go to?
2. what sex-ed do they have?
3. Does a child have the ability to choose their actions?
4. What if she didn't have sex - would she be pregnant?
5. You don't have kids do you?
6. Are you an only child?

 

so what makes a good parent if they can teach their children about the pitfalls in life?
It is the responsibility of parents to teach their children about these things. as a person that opposes sex ed in the class she has no excuse in neglecting to teach her and supervise her. neither the drinking or the pregnancy or sex at late 17, maybe even 16 if you think about it, shows any parenting skills.

 

Her parenting skills are irrelevant to her suitability as VP. Her stands on issues and her situations as regards them are relevant though.

 

i do not have kids. having said that i also think that no person can teach their kids everything. but i support sex ed in classrooms as a supplement to what the parents are responsible for.
she and some republicans and a lot of christian right oppose this. in another word they want to be the main information provider for their kids.
so it was SP responsibility to provide these info to her, and she has failed.

her opposition to sex ed in school is very relevant to being a VP.
isn't it. isn't her stance on related issues one of the reason for her qualification?
and her lack of judgment in regard to her family is certainly an indication of what is to come.

 

The problem I have seen is all the disinformation given children in sex-ed confuses the child even when a parent gives them good info. That is why I personally don't like most of what sex-ed classes teach.

But like other posts you have made about this subject and "christian right" shows how you eat up dis-info and regurgitate it, so I wouldn't expect much more from you.

 

Yeah, as i said, her stands on issues and the situation she is in as regards that.

I sure [hopefully] wouldn't come to conclusions based on one occurrence. Might be a blip.
