38. I can't imagine taking off like that when your own child needs you more than ever.

Their son is behind bars facing the worst disaster of his life. If I were his parent my heart would be breaking for him and I would be doubled over in shame about my failure as a parent.

But this boy's parents are more worried about their own hides than what is happening to their 15-year-old son. It's disgusting.
