While Bristol has matured, her teenage years do not exactly reflect stellar parenting

Expect the left to point this out

No, thank YOU for pointing it out. /s

Parenting can be stellar and yet the kid still messes up. It happens. At a certain age, they start making their own choices, and they can be disappointing, opposed to fundamental truths you taught them. But in Bristol’s case, there are extenuating circumstances. She was, in essence, date-raped. Victims of this often blame themselves to some degree. But the reality is that sex without informed consent is, both morally and legally, rape, and it is not right to blame the victim or the victim’s parents for the vile deeds of third parties, even if the victim struggles to reconstruct the event into something she can handle.

Take a look at history, probably even in your own family, the first one can come anytime, the rest all take nine months. I can forgive and understand “once”...at the same time I”m so glad she is free of that stud Levi. Hopefully she has realized that there is a difference between “love” and “passion”. Her efforts to display remorse and to love, honor, cherish and raise her little boy is commenable. Few, and that is a precious few, are qualified to throw stones. You managed to cast one of the first, The Bible has some real surprises for hypocrites you might want to read.
