Modern Family is hands down my favorite show (thanks to my boo Carol for putting me on!), so I care more than the average person that one of its stars is going through a rough time right now. 14-year-old Ariel Winter plays the “nerd” daughter Alex Dunphy, and while she has a great family on the show, the same can’t be said about her real life. A judge has had to remove her from the care of her mother, after some serious allegations of both physical and mental abuse. A report that Ariel just wanted to be emancipated from her mother just to be with her boyfriend turned out to be false, further backed up by the fact that her older sister Shanelle (who she’s now in the custody of) went through the same circumstances about 20 years ago. So sad. More details below. Hopefully this doesn’t affect her in the long run. Things like this can be so mentally damaging on young children… Marisa Mendez
(Photos) 13-Year-Old Kills His Grandparents For Calling His Mother A “Whore”
A PA teen will likely spend the rest of his life behind bars, as he’ll be tried as an adult after brutally killing his father’s mother and father for calling his mother a “whore.” It’s quite a sad story to begin with, but when given details like they’d had his favorite snacks lined up on the kitchen counter…it shows you they were trying to keep their grandson happy and obviously, it didn’t work. No one will really know what went on besides the teen himself, but I can’t imagine disparaging comments about your mother would really bring you to “pump bullets” into your terminally-ill grandfather until your gun jams…unless there was a deeper-rooted mental issue. Do you agree that he should be charged as an adult on this case? Below, some more details on the situation, as well as a photo of the teen. Condolences to the family! Marisa Mendez
