[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This particular story is so deeply disturbing, I can't believe there are still fraternities on Penn State campus...honestly.

Imagine being his brother and knowing you were just minutes away if anyone would've bothered to call you. And I can't even bring myself to imagine being his parents.

I hope everyone one of the frat members who ignored his obvious injuries and medical issues and those who tried to cover up what happened are thrown in jail for a long, long time. These are exactly the types of sociopaths who go on to become a$$h0l3 bosses and politicians destroying society.[/quote]

This story is especially horrific.  But imagine if your kid was sitting in his dorm room studying all night.  His good friend and roommate (19 years old) came home from a party, passed out on the bed and began choking on his own vomit.

Your kid runs over and tries to help his buddy as best as he can. Then he starts to debate....should he call 911 knowing that his roommate will very likely get into big trouble over this (maybe expelled or even arrested for underage drinking) or should he wait and watch hoping that his friend will sleep it off and be o.k. in the morning?

What would you advise your kid to do in that situation?

No brainer for me. Alive > expulsion. My kid should call 911. [/quote]
