Aug. 9, 2005 Let’s imagine a whole new scenario here and rethink this Natalee Holloway case. Parents haven’t a clue these days and for the life of me I can’t figure this one out. Those parents can’t tell me that they haven’t had a little amount of fun in there lives growing up. If this is the case then they can’t have a clue on what goes on at school trips. I am trying to say most people growing up have had there share of fun. I know for a fact that most of you have had a wild time as a teen. Somewhere or some way down the line they decided to hide that part of there lives from there children. Who as a teen hasn’t had there share of beer, hiding this from there parents? Great Grandma probably had her share of fun as well, so why then are we surprised to find a missing girl on some island of paradise in awe of the whole idea of having a blast of a life time? Let’s now focus on the scenario. A group lands in a tropical paradise and the excitement is so great the kids wish they could stay forever. Now most children or in this case teenagers wish they could stay in a land of utopia but realize that all good things have emphatically, must come to an end. Of course there are always some exceptions to the rule. What if a teenage girl has had a terrible time of it growing up? What if she was unpopular and never been asked on a date, or at the least seldom? What if she, found, on this, her personal utopia, the boys extra attentive, super nice to her in this land where wine flowed like water and troubles were so far away, in another life time. I would want to stay there myself. Just something to think about when you send your son or daughter off to some exotic place where the sun and fun run free and back home is a living hell, with a million rules that most kids struggle to get through. Why wouldn’t we feel the need to stay in paradise? This food for though is just something to think about. Thinking is ok to do but most of us know what is really important. As parents, set standards and rules for our children to live by. Then and only then, they can be better children and then adults. If the Natalee in our life is treated poorly then expect the runaways, addicts and criminal mindsets. Tell them you love them and give them loads of hugs. It doesn’t hurt and if you get used to that then you won’t freak out via frustration all the time. Then and only then will they not only want to come home but will welcome home with open arms. On another note. No new news on Natalee Holloway mysterious disappearance. Maybe tomorrow. ------------ About the author: Bob D Caterino is a writer that we all either hate or love.
