11 year old's violent and profane reaction to bullying goes viral

So this girl who calls herself Jessi Slaughter is 11 - has a webcam and posts profanity laced and violent replies to all her "haters". She says "I'll pop a glock in your mouth and make a brain slushy".

For me, the problem is that these will follow her forever and who gives their 11 yo a webcam??? And she got her lip pierced and she claims she's perfect in every way and has 3 boyfriends etc. Her parents support her. Sexually active? Seems like it. Oy.

...in a related story, youtube has a bunch of goofs on the videos and one goofs on Jessi's dad when he screams into the webcam as she sobs - and they cover his voice after the first few seconds with Billy Maze. Couldn't help it...I laughted out loud; it was funny. I feel dirty.

"But her mother, Diane Leonhardt, said things will change in their house. While Jessi will not be banned from using the Internet, a detective will come by the house next week to sit with her and explain how use the Internet safely and responsibly"
This line from the article says a lot. Why take any responsibility for your daughter when you can get someone else to come over and do it? Too bad there is not an adult in the home that can give her some direction.

I know! She is 11 - she's putting herself out there for even more ridicule - she's dressing inappropriately etc. Zero parenting imo. How does an 11 year old know about beastiality magazines and suggesting she hopes someone gets a papercut on their clit? Sorry to be so graphic but GEEZZZZZZ.

The parent's lack of attention is setting their child up to fail. I suspect the parents have some limited capabilities themselves or they would have gotten involved in this in a more meaningful way long ago. This child is in for some long hard lessons.
What kind of life is she going to have at 16? 18? 25????????????
This is just overall depressing.

very depressing - she may end up an UA; she looks like she would be ripe for the picking by SKR. Sad.

That is it. You nailed what I was struggling to articulate. I was going to write about a future in rehab, juvie, court ordered anger management classes, home visits by CPS, mysterious trips to the ER, motherhood at 14 etc etc etc but you are absolutely correct. She is a UA waiting to happen.
In ALL seriousness I hope that there is someone left in this childs life that can step up and fill the role of a responsbile adult. Aunt? Grandma? Older sibling?

OK What is UA?
