An 18 year old:

1) Getting implants
2) Driving a Lexus
3) A reserved parking space at school

WTF?
 
More than a waste, it should be outlawed for anyone under 21 to go under the knife for shirt like enhancing boobs, penile inplants, and plastic surgery.

It boggles my forking mind that teenagers (as young as 14) are concerned about their "front court" to enhance their looks.
 
That's a horrible story.
Where the heck were the parents? shirt, I thought girls had to get parental consent just to get their ears pierced.

Consent? shirt, parents will cave in to anything to make their kids happy and be their "buddy/friend." A parent who loves their kids and cares about their well-being would have the balls to say "no" and stand by the final decision.
 
I believe once a person hits 18, they are legally adults and can do things without parental consent.

Consent? shirt parents don't even have to be notified for abortions in some states. You think a little enhancement is any different?

Even elective surgery like that? How the heck does it make any sense that a girl can get a boob job at 18, but can't buy a six pack of beer? Because, if I had a daughter, I would much rather have her pick up booze than implants.

Yea, at 18 you get to make your own medical decisions, for better or worse.
 
Two things:

I would bet heavily that mom and dad were paying for the new boobs.

Surprised by an 18 year old driving a Lexus? If I go out to the parking lot outside my newsroom the nicest cars all belong to the interns.
