wow, Prince is "rebelling" and Paris committed suicide...
How can the press get such "family source" when, as far as i can remember, Paris cut herself, which is a "most random" act for many teens, and Prince is acting like any teen would has enough money to fullfill his dream about "i don't wanna see your face, i hate my family, i'm grown up enough to live on my own"
As the teen i've been, and as the adult i am now, i see NOTHING STRANGE.
It sounds like the people who wrote that have never been teens... They jumped from "Carebearland" to "9to5 job" with nothing between.
Wake up guys !
Aside from this Prince is 16, many people know about what they when being 16. He was raised by a man who ALSO learned to be independant in a very young age. Why would he be different ? and why would it be strange ?
They are not "random" kids. They grew up in an environment that maybe led them to gain more independance sooner.
Some students have their own place at 17/18, they only come back for week end. they have a GF/BF... they learn to live on their own because they can't come back every night.
I think Prince needs/deserves it. He is grown enough to get such life if he think so.
At least give it a try with family support just in case.
