#3 "She remains, for the moment, in most versions of this story, a sympathetic character, even a victim"

This is reminiscent of a recent article about how many thugs are busted for operating dog fighting rackets but received a much lighter sentence then Michael Vick. Of course, in that article, they didnt explore how some parents had to explain to their kids why they cant wear their $75 dollar, #7 jerseys anymore. Much like this story doesnt explore how parents had to try and explain teen sex to their nine year old daughters when they should have been talking about Barbie dolls for Christmas.

No, but she is one of the few who can afford a nanny to care for it.

#6 Even in this she is not quite unique. In October 2006, New Zealand actress Keisha Castle-Hughes, then 16 and Oscar-nominated three years earlier for "Whale Rider," announced that she was pregnant.

I usually take them to Shari's or Denny's, so no.
