Exclusive Hot Spots of 2007: Rehab??!! WTF??

Leave it to Americans to glorify the dwindling state of young Hollywood and their need to go to rehab. There is nothing cool about being so out of control with your drug habits that you need to be secluded from your family and friends and rehabilitated, in order to have a shred of hope to a healthier lifestyle. Looking on the surface it’s hard for me to feel bad for these chicks because all I see is a bunch of ungrateful, tactless young women who were blessed to have the opportunities that they have, only to throw it all away for pounds of coke and exaggerated amounts of alcohol.

Ungrateful b*tches! lol...But clearly there is so much more going on below the surface and that’s when I start to sympathize. What’s sad is that the people that fall victim to this vicious cycle don’t have a stronger support system to keep them straight.
I’m in no position to cast judgment or declare to know what really goes on in their lives but there is clearly a lot of rebelling going on and instability, to say the least. I'm guessing this is the inevitable product of parents that throw in their parental responsibilities in exchange to be their child's bff because I know that if this was me, with the parents that I have, none of this nonsense would be going down. Wrap! Even if I momentarily lost my mind and wanted to indulge in this reckless behavior out of respect for my mother I would sit my @$$ down and find something else to do. lol

Now don't get me wrong, the parents aren't solely to blame, I get that but damn...real friends don't allow you to lose yourself like this either. I don't know. There's really no sense in pointing fingers because these chicks need to be held accountable for their behavior at the end of the day.

Seeing this on websites and the news puts a lot of things in perspective for me. It makes me appreciate what I have more and less envious of the things that they have. Yeah it would be great to be sitting on millions, driving fancy cars, vacationing wherever my heart desires, but I would much rather have the family and friends that I have, the sense of security and confidence within my own skin, my privacy and be genuinely happy.

Whatever, to each their own.
