I've heard that it takes a crisis to change bad situations. Maybe this is the crisis she needs to wake her up and make her realize how off the track she's gotten... or been all along, if you ask me.
I'm with you on the media thing, Simon. Here in the states, a news woman interviewed a woman who's child had been abducted. The mother wasn't stable to begin with, but the interview pushed her over the edge and she commited suicide.
There was a lot of blame throwing and controvery about the news woman. She was taken to court but she still has her job.
