    Easier than taking those final exams though. Am I right?

    So sad all around

    With the amount of mental effort involved in staging your own abduction, why not just study instead and graduate?

    This happened here near Pittsburgh. What’s really angered people locally is all the wasted time and resources of looking to find her when she was safely watching from a friend’s house. The mental gymnastics of thinking she’d get away with this in today’s world is just baffling to me.

    Last enrolled fall of 2018??? She hasn’t been in school for 5 years how had she not come clean in all that time.

    I would bet my bottom dollar the tip came from a family member of the friend she was staying with. I don’t understand the thinking behind it. Was she thinking that she would get found and because her parents will feel sorry for her for getting ubducted they won’t ever ask about college?

    Or is she literally at the point where she was thinking that she will never see her parent again?

    I did the same thing once. It was fun.

    I used to get these nightmares that I was supposed to be graduating but I’d been lying to everyone and failing all my classes. No reason for it either. I did fine in school other than procrastinating on everything.

    My mom is in her late eighties, at this point I am just going to grit my teeth and keep up the whole MD charade until she’s gone.

    One of our group of friends failed an entire semester in university. Rather than admit to his parents that he’d fucked up, he got someone in our group who worked in the registrar’s office to steal some letterhead paper and then faked a transcript to show them. He then spent the next couple of months coming to school every day on his regular schedule. Just sat around, doing nothing all day until it was time to head home.

    In case you were wondering, his mother was the type of woman who’d vacuum the carpets in a specific way so she’d know if anyone had walked on them. His father apparently cut off his fingers in a lawnmower accident. No, we don’t live in Kentucky.

    Well I guess it’s better than the kid who killed his parents so they wouldn’t find out he failed out
