I agree BIBI. One of the problems I have currently is that we are allowing our children to idolize peeps who have been horrible role models in the past. Just because someone overcomes a struggle does not make them a good role model afterwards.
What about someone who made good choices all along? I don't want kids to think oh it's ok to do all these terrible things because I can always recover and become a better person later. How about being a good person and making the right choices from the get go????
