What the...?!: Girl, 11, and teen boyfriend try to set mom on fire

The motive, police say, was "teenage angst." A cop says "it escalated yesterday when (the mom) confronted the daughter about stealing some of her cigarettes." (TampaBay.com)

Teenage angst sets in earlier each year, apparently. Global warming?

[Sheila]

These two families are in complete, disastrous, probably irreversible meltdown.

Oh come on Florida, now you are just running up the score here in the last two days of the year. You won already! Have mercy on the rest of the states and give it a rest already.

Happy New Year everybody!

[KDP]

The punishment should fit the crime.

[Lambiepie]

sterilize them all immediately

I find it creepy that a 16 year old boy is hot for an 11 year old girl.
I love how the girl is described as having "Teenage angst" and "testing her boundries" (by setting her mother on fire?)
That's some scary stuff. Geez, I hope my kids don't test their boundries or have angst today.. We were planning to undecorate the house, but I don't want to die over it.

Lambiepie;
Intellectual rights do exist.

Noisy, crazy, dirty, lazy, loafers!
While we're on the subject:
Kids!
You can talk and talk till your face is blue!
Kids!
But they still just do what they want to do!
Why can't they be like we were,
Perfect in every way?
What's the matter with kids today?
Kids!
I've tried to raise him the best I could
Kids! Kids!
Laughing, singing, dancing, grinning, morons!
And while we're on the subject!
Kids! They are just impossible to control!
Kids! With their awful clothes and their rock an' roll!
Why can't they dance like we did
What's wrong with Sammy Caine?
What's the matter with kids today!

[Umm...]

Really?--"gasoline-addled" flames? What does that even mean?

[Adam]

Sterilization is absolutely required here for everyone involved. They can then be allowed to live out their lives in their local trailer park.

[American Veteran]

Just another Florida hottie.

[LimeGreenLizard]

"gasoline addled"? Next time I need a job, I'll apply to a newspaper for a journalist's job. Seems the pay is decent, and you don't need no readin', ner righting skills.

But I second RMM's take on a sixteen year old going for an eleven year old girl. Skeevy X 1000.

[Reno]

I'll take a wild guess and say that the 11 year old and 16 year old are on the same maturity level right now, hence they are perfect for each other. Not in a moral sense of course, since no one wants to think of their 11 year old daughter getting boinked every 20 minutes by her pimply faced boyfriend...

[thomas]

Reno;
Ballsy analogy.
I didn't have the nerve, though it was my first impression.

[Lambiepie]

@Thomas (with a wink)
Farmer Bob may have started the campaign but he doesn't have legal rights to the thought

and...how can intellectual rights be claimed for anything to do with this story?

[thomas]

and...how can intellectual rights be claimed for anything to do with this story?

In this instance, intellect might be best expressed in what we don't do with this story.

As an aside dear Lambiepie;
It was a pleasure to have your namesake and possible neice pop in for Christmas dinner. She was savory, mouth watering, and sweet, for a Kiwi.
Genetic??

[American Veteran]

Oh, thomass. We KNOW who you're hitting on.

thomas' lambiepie fantasy

[Bluntfacts]

Obviously Florida continues to pile on even after they have alreay won 2009. Is that the humidity? Too much sun?

Or maybe just a cesspool of idiots. Yes, that is it.

[Krash]

I am Concurring with folks here about 11 yo girls
dating 15 yo boys. I know recognize a potential
difficulty with my positions on "pedo" and 13/19 yo
having "relationships", etc., but I will stipulate
that an 11 yo girl has NO business having a 15 yo
boyfriend.
Obviously, more fodder for the "procreation license"
debate, as Mom doesn't seem to be at all prepared to
take responsibility.

[Charles]

The 11 year old needs a spanking.
The 15 year old needs a good swift kick to the head.
The deserved punishment: Make then get married.
Bwahahaha!
