Do you think they should broadcast all of their thoughts and possible suspicions to the viewing public, which of course would include Misty?
Yes, ma'am, I do.

Jmo, I don't think so. I think they would be asking her and trying to see if there could be something she has blocked out or forgotten. I don't think means they suspect her of anything, and if they do, I don't believe they would broadcast it.
I feel sorry for TN too, but a lot of that pain and anguish could be guilt that the little Miss Perfect Mom wasn't quite so perfect after all and that Ron should never have trusted her. And one of the things that bothers me is, Misty was praised so highly right around the time of the wedding, but now they suspect she is not telling the truth? What brought that sudden revelation on? Surely they could see some of this deception way back in Feb., couldn't they? Did Misty have them all fooled until the LDT results came out recently? Funny... they live with her and can't see it, but we could all see it from Day One. Imagine that!
Why would a mother claim that this teenage girl is the best thing since sliced bread, and turn around 6 months later and think she's lying, but still support her? Why would they even approve of that wedding to start with? If one of my boys did something this stupid, I would slap him upside the head till his ears rang! Oh, and claim it's what Haleigh "would have wanted." Lordy, lordy... these people just astound me.

That Mz. Nancy thing is sticking in so many craws because it just doesn't sound right. Not in the North, the MidWest, the West. or even the South.
I am deepy offended by that remark. :furious:Debs, Teresa is 46? I didn't know that....
I agree, it sounded weird as heck.
"Ms. Grace" would've been more appropriate and respectful. In the south, "Mr./Ms. first name" is typically used when the last name of the person being addressed is not known. Of course there are always exceptions, sometimes certain folks may prefer to be called "Mr./Ms. first name".
Whatever the case, "Miz" is definitely not the norm. Sounds like something you'd hear on Amos and Andy.

I was referring to what is the norm in Ron and Teresa's neck of the woods.Might not be the norm where you live but where I grew up it is the norm.
A lot of folks who are from the same general area as Teresa and Ron found their use of "Miz Nancy" odd. To many people, it made them sound as if they were sucking up.. it did not sound genuine at all.I don't know why 3 pages have been wasted talking about Teresa calling Nancy, Ms. Nancy. Does this have anything to do with Haleigh being missing or just nit pickin'?
I was born in texas ofcourse and we are raised to respect people on general terms such as miss before their name. Our children are tought in daycare to call their teachers miss and their first name and that follows through in the schools.I thought it was wierd the first time I heard it too, snookie! I was brought up in the NE where this form of address is not used. One of the project reps where I worked called me Miz and my first name. At first I thought he was kidding me, but then I heard him addressing a female manager the same way. This young man was very well mannered and grew up in a southern state. It's the way he was taught to address an older woman or a woman of some stature and is considered respectful.

ETA Also TN's job would have conditioned her to be respectfull also. True souther individuals do have manners no matter how much money they don't have.
It is not a term of servitude, it is something that people with good manners do anytime they are speaking to someone and its not a formal setting, but not a totally casual setting.
It is good, and polite to call a lady, Miss Lydia instead of Miss Jones in such a setting. Now if she was my teacher, I would say Miss Jones.
This is going to sound gruff and I don't want it to, but people from the North consider it silly and their children say huh, what, no, so and in my family that is just not acceptable.
Manners are good for everyone, and no one here thinks it sounds fake. JMO

Being a true southerner myself, north Florida specifically, I don't find it odd at all to hear RC addressing Nancy Grace as Miss Nancy. I have always referred to anyone older than me as Miss ____ (whatever their first name is) and have taught my children the same. My daughters grew up in their elementary schools referring to their teacher's as Miss _______. It's called being respectful to your elders.
OffTopic on:Well it's obviously caused a stir for some round here.
No matter what Ron does, or his family, the negative remarks here are becoming exceedingly annoying and uncalled for. This is not helping figure out the possible scenerios or events that may have occurred leading up to and the present state of this case. I'm sure Haleigh loved both sides of her family, and probably Misty too as children are so accepting and giving towards others.
I saw no purpose in TN's interview on Nancy last night, so I'm still stunned as to why do it. I hope TN realizes it wasn't of any help unless just keeping Haleighs name out there was her goal, which it did do that.
OffTopic on:
Maybe the site needs to be renamed webbashers.com insted of websleuths.com.
OffTopic off:
I think it was to continue keeping Haleigh's name out there and to balance out the previous days' appearance of Marie and Crystal. TN answered the questions fairly gracefully, IMO, managing to give a decent sounding reply without really saying anything.
