michelle i like how you think .i live in michigan and i havent seen the picture but as you probably read i most deffintly think the mom has something to do with this.your right if she just now remembered about the "girlfreinds house" something has to be up with her.dont you thinkk they should look for him some more to its like hes a forgotten soul.

thanks michelle

hannah and michelle,
if you only knew how much i love both my stepsons you would never have posted such comments. but then you're getting news from sound bites and cutlines on pix that don't accurately portray our family so i understand that everyone wants to blame the fairy tale version of wicked stepmothers. i fell in love with both boys 10 yrs ago. they were my world after my own 2 graduated from h.s. and started college. i married their father because he had the integrity to go for custody of his boys and b/c i wanted more of my 'own.' blake and andy were the answers to those prayers. not all stepmothers are evil. i did as much, if not more, for them than i did for those to whom i gave birth. because newspaper articles and tv clips cut out a lot of info, they didn't mention that i told deputies from the start that blake wanted to go to meet his g.f. 2 and 1/2 hours early and his father had left orders that he had to fold his clothes before he left. there was no argument between us. i simply told him i'd take him when it was time to go. however, blake left the house. he usually walked down into the woods to sneak a cigarette, thinking we didn't know what he was doing. but, instead, he went to the neighbor's house, where i had asked, told, advised, begged him not to go for many months beforehand. but he was insistent that these two men were his friends. so, please, do not, in the future, judge a book by its cover, so to speak. i may not be sweet looking 2 months after my boy is missing...it aged us all. but i did everything in my power to get these boys all that they needed to be successful in life. so, please, as you grow older yourselves, look beyond what you see in the news and put yourselves in the shoes of those who must endure the worst tragedy of their lives...the loss of our son forever to two men who wanted the thrill of a kill.

You are a sweet girl go green 2 and I am sure this is bothering you. Just think of it as a lesson learned and move on okay?

[candice 1986]

I also think the media was wrong in this also, portraying an image that was false.
