My 2 Cents: A New Wrinkle In The Story Of Jersey Teen Suing Parents

Would you be surprised if I told you the saga of the spoiled 18-year-old girl from New Jersey has taken another twist?

Rachel Canning is the teenager who broke her parents' rules, moved out and is suing them to make them pay for her private school, living expenses, transportation and future college expenses. Well, now her lawyer says she's moved back home, but... BUT... she's STILL suing her Mom and Dad, of course that's according to her attorney.

Rachel claims she was kicked out of the house two days before she turned 18. Her parents say she moved out voluntarily because she didn't like their rules about curfew, and drinking and their disdain for her boyfriend.

No word on why she went home, but I'm glad she did and I hope the family can work through their problems. It sounds like typical teenage angst spun out of control, so that's good.

And this is good: Rachel had been staying with the family of her best friend, that family is apparently fronting her legal expenses. I'm happy to tell you those knuckleheads who meddled in this thing are out $13,000 to the attorneys at this point. This is one of the few times I've actually been pulling for the lawyers to make more.
