Love Child
One Love
Discussion at the dinner table:
Person 1: I'm really disapointed at an athlete, an Olympic Gold Medalist that smokes pot. Who or what do we have to look up to? What do we have kids? Is there anyone to look up to?
Me: Why are we putting celebrities, athletes, anyone on a pedestal? Humans are failable, it is not fair to hold them up to such a high standard that we expect them to be perfect.
Person 2: But they are in the public eye, they should have higher standards. Thier life is no longer private. They are setting an example.
Who is right? Discuss.
