Because the *best* case scenario here is that she's been the victim of abusive parents. The worst is that she has a serious and intractable mental illness, and won't be able to care for herself.

I don't believe there's been any evidence WHAT. SO. EVER. her parents abused her. This girl was tweeting the President for help for Christ's sake. Her parents were in favor of this and - unlike Britney - this girl did everything right. She is living in a facility, admitted mistakes, and worked hard to gain her freedom.

I seriously hope she's okay, and that she either had a temporary problem or her stage parents were handling things all wrong.

Because some forms of mental illness are lifelong, and are almost impossible for people to handle on their own. How do you make good decisions and manage your own care, if your brain doesn't work? Because that's exactly what some people have to deal with, and if you want to see the worst-case scenario for them, then drive past a homeless encampment.
