Setting An Example

A Bad One That Is

What is the best way for mature adults to resolve conflicts?

Well, if the conflict has arisen from an earth shattering injustice – such as your 9 year-old cheerleader daughter didn’t end up being placed into the desired squad – then apparently punching the president of cheerleading in the chin is a desirable method.

At least, if you’re 39 year-old Michelle Rains of Suwanee, Georgia that is.

The Forsyth County mom was arrested on August 15, 2008 and charged with simple battery in the case.

The altercation occurred in the gym at a local high school. Spoiled Princess Rains was, according to the police report, demanding that her daughter be placed on another squad.

When told that change would not be completed at the cheer clinic, the report states that Rains yelled “This is not over!” and during an apparently minor scuffle ended up hitting the victim in the chin, before taunting her with “Oh, did it hurt!?”

The moral of the story is clear… If your precious little snowflake doesn’t get everything she wants – or in this case, everything you want her to have – be sure to demand that everyone caters to your desires, even if it requires yelling, shoving, and making a fool out of yourself publicly.

We’re talking about cheerleading for a youth football organization here… Chill.

(Michelle Rains)

I’m just so damn sick of “adults” (and I use that term loosely) who throw their little temper tantrums when things don’t go their way.

There are literally hundreds of thousands of American citizens losing their homes to foreclosure, tens of thousands losing their jobs, and the biggest apparently problem in this woman’s life is that her child didn’t get placed onto the preferred cheerleading squad.

    I hope that crazy Michelle Rains is prohibited from any of her children(s) events. What a lesson to not only teach your child but other children to act like that. Her poor daughter. She gets to go to school and have all the other children laugh at her because her mom is a crazy fool. Get a life Mrs. Rains. I hope you have learned a valuable lesson and can contain your childish temper tantrums. What a waste of court costs as well. We have more important things to spent money on besides this.

    You all should know there are two sides to every story. On one side you have Michelle and on the other side you have the coach and her two friends, who do you think is going to be the one looking bad. And if you know anything about cheerleading in Georgia then you know how it is all political. The coaches think they are gods and can play with the lives of little girls. If you’re not in the right social group, or look a certain way, or have enough money they will make sure you don’t make it as a cheerleader. You are right this story is sad, all of this over cheerleading. If anyone needs to get a life it is the coaches.
