How exactly is he rebelling against his parents. Of course some kids rebel but not like this. This goes way beyond and has nothing to do with his parents. Would you be yawning if your child did this. I know I wouldn't.

Hmmm. I thought the children of elected officials were "off limits". Libbies seem to get their panties in a bunch anytime anything comes up about Booboo's girls.

This was a tweet on the internet where the whole world could read. He initiated it and apparently wanted everyone to know. How do you compare this to Obama's daughters. Have they tweeted things like this...no. Have they even tweeted anything.

Probably from "popular" media and MTV.

You might not yawn if your kid said it, but I would certainly yawn if your kid said it.

My kid is a nobody though But he has respect and manners which obviously this kid doesn't. You want to be in the public eye then teach your kid the basics so he will make you proud.

This kid's a nobody too. Him being a politician's son doesn't make him any more special than your kid. So there's no reason to give him special scrutiny or pay him special attention.

When you are a public figure, your whole family is under scrutiny. Or does that only apply to the president and his family. No it doesn't

Beyond scrutinizing for matters of genuine concern to the public such as nepotism or conflicts of interest, no it isn't. The whole family doesn't run for office, and unless they affirmatively choose otherwise, they remain private citizens.

It doesn't apply to the President's family any more or less than any other public figure.
