This is very irresponsible behaviour to have caused an entire city / country anxiety over a spoilt teenager’s actions.
Hopefully we will get all of the details and some clarity on this situation. It is definitely unfortunate, but we don’t want a “cry wolf” situation and then something really bad happens.
I wonder how many enemies she has made in one week as a result of her poor actions and pathetic apology. Even though she’ll be entering university shortly and hoping for a fresh new start, everyone including her university professors and colleagues will regard her as the irresponsible teenager who cost the entire country thousands of dollar spent on trying to look for her. She owes the public an explanation!
I do not envy her at all.
