Do you always put down and make fun of someone when they are talking about the death of a dear friend of theirs? You are the one that has some serious social skills problems if you do, not I.
Your post was weird, as are you. You come out of nowhere and bring up rape and murder to a 15 year old who is simply posting fun vids of herself singing. What the hell happened to you to make you like that?
For crying out loud, I do not have the time to spell everything out for some of you on this board who just get off on attacking others on their views and who don't get things that others have no problem understanding. You are adults and should have a better comprehension by this time then you apparently do. I have tons of patience...especially with kids and teenagers because they understand that there is much for them to learn....it's adults who think they already know it all that I lose patience with sometimes.
For your information, since you are so concerned with what I said, along with being a commissioned artist, I am also currently employed to give counsel to teenagers. I have done volunteer work for years and my services have been sought out in the counsel of teenagers. I have raised 3 children of my own and they have many friends who call me mom and still will seek my counsel from time to time, even though they are now adults in their 20's. I spend a large percentage of my time around young people.
Now with that said, I will get back to your point of contention. I merely related to her that she reminds me of my friend, in fact the resemblance is uncanny....that is a reality. My friend was killed....that, unfortunitely, is also a reality. Teenagers do not have their heads in the sand as you seem to think. I have not said anything to her that I'm sure she hasn't heard before and is well aware of. Teens can deal with hearing about the realities in life. They are still looking for some guidance and understanding but they don't like to be talked down to like they are too young and dumb to understand things. She can speak for herself, but in my opinion, that is probably why Phen started in here talking in a manner that may be shocking to some adults. Sometime's teens will talk in the ways that they hear adults do to try to prove that they aren't children anymore and that they know the ways of the world. I was merely letting her know that I was telling her this in reference to what occured previously here and that this is one of the reasons why I put myself out there in concern for her well being. I didn't want her to think it was because I didn't think that she was not capable of taking care of herself or that she wasn't intelligent enough. I think that she is very intelligent and will understand what I was referring to and why I spoke of my friend to her. If she does have a question of my post to her I'm sure she will comment on it.
So, NIG, you, like many here do, interjected yourself into something without having seen the whole picture. Try getting some more information before you pass judgement. With knowledge comes wisdom. This was a brief message to Phen, not you, so I hope you will not continue to drag this out just because I may have offended you and we can get back to the music now.....or you can continue attacking me if you wish, but I have other things to do. Have a great day.
so I will always see her as a young, vibrant, beautiful girl, so filled with hope and promise. She was only 17 when she was killed. That's why I said be a little careful out here, girl, and don't give out all your info. Love your artwork, I'm an artist too. Keep up the good work, your very talented.
let's just talk about sport's while we criticise those that play the game.....make fun of celebritie's and even each other so that we can feel like we are somehow superior.... break people down to body parts...tell jokes and snicker and giggle like grade school kids over sex, cussing and bodily function's....just sit in our chairs and complain about thing's in the world while we don't do anything about it but complain....degrade and keep putting down every member and ex-member of a band who we have followed and say we've loved for so many years....right, instead of talking about real experiences we just need more photoshopped pic's! Yeah, your right NIG, we shouldn't care about anything or anyone. Excuse me while I go find a decent person to talk to now! 
I am using Firefox. Strange behavior. You might notice that I am typing all words out without abbreviation or anything that would require an apostrophe.
