As much as one would like to at least pretend that anything LIKE this could
explain bad behavior away, frankly, to me, it is a pile of...what a donkey
leaves behind. Sorry, but there are MILLINS of people who suffer all manner of
abuse, evil, whatever - who do NOT become sociopaths or spoiled rotten brats.
They make the best of what life can present to them. There is no excuse for this
kind of behavior except one - they have been ALLOWED by the significant people
in their lives to behave in this kind of anti-social, bratty way, and since they
have gotten away with it - regardless of what they might pretend is their
"reason" that they have no REASON to desist. As long as they can get away with
it, they will continue to behave this way. Some people have just been so spoiled
in allowing them to behave in these ways that they simply cannot be included in
events where decent manners and behavior is expected - of everyone.

If not, then maybe their behavior goes deeper ...you know
abuse and what not. Not that I am condoning it, but if peer pressure
and these messages don't mean anything to them it is probably a deeper
issue that we don't understand.
