Do what you want ..then justify it at all costs..
Doesn't surprise me at all, this kind of... "I couldn't help myself"... attitude is rampant in our society...the children pay the price & some attorney will be more than happy to indulge this kind of behavior...after all it's the parents who are the victims here....right

....they did wrong, they had the responsibility & free will to make the right choices by their children & they failed miserably...
