Just a spoiled skank ho…
It’s Xmas, that’s why the complaint was dropped. Everyone is full of good will. Why, I bet they’re holding hands and singing over at the Betty Ford clinic right now. It’s A Wonderful Life.
I have yet to find anyone who cares about lohan… except her dependent parents.
This place is named after a pill popping lush who did it all with the Secret Service guarding her at the tax payer expense. The breach of confidentiality alone is enough to dis-credit the place permanently. You don’t give interviews if you are in this business…period!
I don’t know if any of you have ever been in rehab It is no easy task either. But I assure you the rehab which is in Arkansass certainly would not allow their clients to go anywhere without supervision for a month and then if you chose to stay on which I stayed for 3 additional months as I had been using and drinking since age 12 and was 40 then and we were not even allowed to go to outside meetings unless a certified registered driver came and got us and brought us back and zero stops to and from. After 30 days I got a job and moved to the town and I still had to be in by no later than midnight if I worked nights and 10 pm if I worked days. They were very strict and it worked for me. But I was ready. I had never had a ticket or an accident and had never been arrested. I checked myself in cause I wanted to be healthy. I should have been many times. I only had the one experience with rehab but having been in the program since 1998 I find it hard to understand that they can go to bars and shopping and such. We were allowed to go to supervised medical appointments or for those in legal trouble to court. This is beyond my understanding. This young woman is going to die too young if someone does not help her help herself. Money will not fix you. If she will not do the rehab she does indeed need some real time jail time. A couple months might change her mind. I personally don’t think she is a good actress or singer or model and don’t get it why she is marketable at all. But it is just my opinion. I thought Betty Ford was top notch. Evidently they are if the facts are true not as good as the Harbor House in Fort Smith Arkansas which only costed me 10000 I been sober since. And we were given many random blood and urine drug tests. It is standard procedure there. This makes me sad cause I know how hard it is to live a sober life after going through rehab. We began at 6 am everyday and went every night until 10 pm and had to be asleep by 11 for the first 30 days. After unless you had in writing that you were in fact working if you wanted to continue inhouse treatment you had to OBEY the rules. No exceptions and certainly we were prohibited in hanging out or even riding in our individual autos with another client once past the 30 day mark evento a meeting. They would kick you out if they caught you doing that. Betty Ford is not what I expected at all. I guess it is good to be poor. It took me 3 years to pay off that 10000 dollars. It was worth it though.
uniform 12/23-2:53 pm, you hit the nail right on the head on this one! It’s obvious she came in late subversion to “What do you mean I wasn’t here? I was in my room reading”. She needs to drop the I’m smarter than you act. If this matter does reach a judge, I’m sure he or she will see right through her circus act. Smarten up Linds, you have been given opportunities of a lifetime that very few people have access to. I sincerely hope for your sake you get clean.

A commonly asked quietson, when pondering decisions, is What would Jesus do? Read Luke 18:35-43. Here we have the familiar story that as Jesus, with a crowd surrounding him, neared Jericho, a blind man, who was beside the road begging, learned that Jesus was passing by. Knowing of Jesus’ reputation as a healer, the blind man began crying out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” But, as the verse above explains, members of the crowd tried to silence him. They wanted him to sit there quietly and wait for alms without embarrassing others or distracting Jesus from paying attention to them. The man, however, continued to call out. Jesus heard him, had him brought forward and gave him his sight.The blind man can stand for people who refuse to stay in “their place,” instead making a fuss about issues that others would prefer to be left as they are. He can represent voices, like Betty Ford’s, crying out for change in society.Questions: When voices cry out for change in our society, how do we react? How does our belief system and our degree of agreement with those voices affect our response? Is it possible that the voices that are most troublesome to us are the ones we most need to hear?
