Sorry, that was like the least constructive input I've ever given. But I totally cracked myself up with that mental image, so thanks for leading me there.
I don't think Courtney should have had custody of Frances Bean or been allowed to have any pets, but why does our society think that mother=good parent? Why didn't someone step in for Frances years ago, recognizing that this obviously mentally ill woman shouldn't be raising her*? And why isn't someone who has obviously been dealing with mental illness for decades worthy of our compassion as well. I mean sure, feel bad for Lilo (I hope to someday hear she went to college, cut off her parents and found some stability in life) but why not feel bad for Courtney too?
*Obviously, the person I feel worst for is Frances Bean, but I feel like more people in the world than just Courtney failed that kid.
Not that I care either way what Tom Cruise really likes in the way of men or women, but I'm just sayin', stereotypes have been proven not to hold up.
