Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Friday, February 22, 2013

A New York mother has been charged with five counts of endangering the welfare of a child after she allegedly hired two strippers to perform lap dances on the guests at her son's 16th birthday party. Judy Viger, 33, hired the women from a company called Tops in Bottoms and arranged for them to perform in a private room at the Spare Time Bowling Center in South Glens Falls on Nov. 3.

I wonder if the mother is also a high school teacher [which may help explain this] ;)

MSGT,

doubtful. mother, 33, son, 16.

It was probably very poor judgment on the mothers part, but if I were 16 I'd think she was an awesome mom.

True, Whatsleft, but at 16 you would likely think pot was fine and someone out there would pretend to know better and prosecute.
This mother has a hole in her head, especially to have it in a public place. But I'd say full prosecution is kind of radical. Let the parents of the other kids sue if they want. These kids see worse than lap dances on SHO and HBO these days. If their parents don't care, I don't see how the rest of us can cure that.

What an Awesome mother!

Leave it to conservatives to get offended by this.

Religious Bull Push by conservatives:

Parents buying their children lap dances = damnation.

Parents forcing children into religious brainwashing and servitude = salvation.

Let's see, even Clownshack knows I am a religious conservative but rather than consider what I posted above he instead assigns a view to us.
A sad mind you have, Clownshack.

Are you trying to tell me that it was degrading for these women to be giving lap dances?

daughters I have none, but I have a cousin that used to be an "exotic dancer". She told our family members she was involved in "personal fitness." LOL! anyway, she later ended up turning 30 and having to retire. then she got involved in trafficking cocaine from California to Hawaii. Then something went wrong, she hid out at my place for a week, then drove into mexico and flew to brazil where she lives to this day.

But, she chose her own path in life, her decisions are her own responsibility. She wasn't complaining while she was making $40k a month. I wasn't complaining hanging out with her stripper friends. so, win win for me. win lose for her.

I'm pretty much just rambling. what was the question again?

Only Clown would have to be told...

Harbored a fugitive? Careful what you post, Clownshack. You could get her and yourself in trouble the way they vacuum the Internet these days looking for terrorists and only busting druggies and tax evaders.

Clown I do not pretend to be or know a "lap dancer" but I would not condone any young women to get into that profession unless they wanted to. That given, a Mother who presents a stripper to a 16 year old is a act I cannot support. How many Moms do you know who paid for a stripper for their 16 year old son?

Yea, except it was back in 2005 and she wasn't a fugitive, she just had a feeling something was wrong.

But I am grateful for your concern.

A women of age is allowed to do whatever she wants with a male of age. That given, a mother of a male at age should have some restraints. If not by law, by virtue.

You sure are preachy.

She obviously wanted to.

The beauty of it is, you're support isn't required. It's her kids. Diablo has a valid point about the other kids that were attending.

Zero, none, I wish!

My friend's brother hired him two prostitutes for his 18th birthday while they were in Vegas. Thats as close as I can get to this.

While I agree with you, each to their own.

This mother could of shown restraint and waited until his 18th birthday. But legal age of consent is different in different states.

In New York it seems to be age 17. en.wikipedia.org

still think its awesome, at the age of 16 I would of been blown away and this mother would have become the coolest mother in the world.

Who wants to bet she gave her son's friends Handys and BJs?

I was, Oldwhisk, but mostly from a literary point of view. That was the most egregious example of typing passing as writing I have ever encountered.

I see Diablo gets his panties knotted up over lap dances for 16 yr old boys, but it seems hes always defending a religious org that diddles prepubescent children...

No question, just a comment----now I know why you're so screwed up in your thinking. What's scary is there's probably more of you out there then imagined. What a screwed country.

I bet if her son then has sex with his teacher, a big stink will ensue..
Liberals can't seem to make up their minds where to draw the line now that anything goes..

I have a friend who told me he gave up on strip clubs the day he realized the female on his lap had a c-section scar.

But that's me!

Adults to busy trying to be their kids friend instead of actually being a parent.

Child endangerment?????????? But the boy can play video games, operate drones or take to the battlefield in Afghanistan and that would be OK, no charges would be filed. This is one of a million examples of what happens when everything becomes a business, in this case another miscarriage of Justice. All the while pretending that we have freedom, then arresting us for having poor taste.
