I like her post sentencing statement much better then her pre-sentencing statement which seemed to have some "excuses" / "whoa is me" going on. How much is the true FH vs PR machines, who knows? But, she has certainly conducted herself in the public spectrum more humbly and professionally throughout compared to LL/LL Team. IMO etc.
The only difference between the Loughlin/Mossimos and herself is that they paid more money but she's less delusional and smarter than them. So she carefully listened to her legal team, allowed her high priced PR team to work their magic and knew to throw herself on the mercy of the court.
But IMO she is no different from the rest as far as who she is as a human.
Children of rich celebrities already have an unfair advantage when compared with the rest of the nation. Starting with the highest quality nutrition and pre-natal care in utero which many people do not have access to.
They then have the best health care and nutrition after birth, all of which makes an impact on brain development and overall intelligence.
They subsequently have the highest quality childcare/nannies. The very best top notch preschools. Private school at the best schools are their lives.
Access to an incredible array of extracurricular activities and travel and other experiences that a kid in some small town or inner city could only dream of.
They have the best tutors. They have too notch educational and medical intervention if their kids have any learning disabilities. The kind of care that in many cases would totally eliminate the negative effects of the learning disability.
Then they have access to the best and most expensive test prep. More private tutoring.
And all the personal connections in the world due to their money, that help junior get an edge.
The system is skewed to enable kids like theirs to have an insane advantage over everyone else. Not just the working poor but also most middle class, frankly, who work hard to get their kids all they can to prepare them for the future.
These jokers just sign a check.
And she has the audacity to say she just wanted to give her kid a "fair chance"?
This case not only shows there are two systems when it comes to the college admissions system- one for the filthy rich and one for everyone else- it also shows there are two legal systems.
She got a slap on the wrist.
And what she and the other parents charged did specifically caused more well-deserving and honest students to lose their chance and their place in certain colleges, so these children of excessive privilege could get a free ride.
It's despicable. And should have merited a stiffer sentence.
But I knew it wouldn't.
