No Excuse for Bad Behavior

Here’s an example of what’s wrong with our society today: When asked what she’d do if she had a son misbehaving like Justin Bieber, First Lady Michelle Obama says, “I would pull him close. You know, I don’t know if it would be advice as much as action. I would be very present in his life right now. And I would be probably with him a good chunk of the time, just there to talk, to figure out what’s going on in his head, to figure out who’s in his life and who’s not, you know.”

She adds, “…he’s still a kid. He’s still growing up.”

Please do not blame Bieber’s troubles on the fact that he’s only 19-years old, not when there are 19-year-olds like Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Myles Kerr, who while running in his military gear, slowed his pace to motivate Brandon Fuchs struggling to finish ‘The 2013 Jeff Drenth Memorial 5K’ in Michigan, last August.

Beiber’s age is jus’ a lame excuse to allow him off the hook for his piss-poor behavior.
