Good thing she can't hear you. You'd wake the dead with that sanctimonious screeching.

Still defending her muise I see.

I often wonder what's wrong with people, when they go out of their way to be so nasty about something tragic.

None of us know her demons. Drug addiction isn't a take it or leave it thing, and no one can see inside someone, or understand what it feels like when life is a struggle to survive what torments your inner self.

I dont see how painting her as a saint will be beneficial to other young girls wondering if gear is something they should try.

Well if it isn't yourself! No "woe is me"-I'm still alive,looking after my family as best I can without the use of opiates,good to know that only people in the public Eye can suffer hardship.

Better arguement nex time or I'll ignore you:D

Tremendous woe is me attitude. What gives you the right to say your life was harder than anyone else's? How the hell do you know what her life was like?

And I didn't say only people in the public eye can suffer hardship, I said that growing up in the public eye can't be easy. Do you see the difference?

How do you know growing up in the public eye isnt easy? It seems to me that you are making wild assumptions across the board. The reality is that she has had more opportunities in her life than the vast majority of the entire human race, so please forgive us if we do not share the same amount of sentiment as you appear to have.

Whether she was a celebrity or not is not the issue, she was a junkie and she was so selfish that she chose drugs over her kids. That makes her one of the worst mothers out there, she is a disgrace and her kids are far better off without her. Hopefully now the innocent kids will be able to be raised by someone who actually loves them enough to put them first. She failed at life and thats it done. She is dead and that is all there is to it.

I don't, I'm saying I could imagine why it wouldn't be. There seems to be an awful lot of people going 'spoiled rich girl' who aren't considering the other side of the coin. I wouldn't have wanted to trade places with her. That London socialite lifestyle is poisonous in its own way (lots of damaged people) and I do feel quite sorry for anyone who gets sucked into it.

The fact you're going on about 'choosing' drugs says it all really. I've never met a heroin addict who really wanted to be a heroin addict. In almost every case, the addiction rose out of serious mental health issues and/or a troubled childhood. No, not everyone with those problems becomes a 'junkie' but some people are more frail than others. I didn't even LIKE the woman, for God's sake, but some of the judgemental crap people are spewing is making me sick.

She has a sibling that has avoided the spotlight,to the best of my knowledge,but as it was her bread and butter she courted it.

Again,I will repeat it for our slower learners, I am alive,my responsibility is to my family,therefore I do not take heroin,drive recklessly,have fun etc. etc.

What gives me the right to say that my Life was harder? Good question actually-but I would say,the poverty,neglect,beatings,hunger lies that had to be concocted so that friends could not come over, all these things that make me want to improve my kids chances in Life. I am aware that taking heroin will not aid this.

Again, good for you.

I'm sorry you had such a hard time, but you have no idea what anyone else went through.
