Teen Passenger Dies In Plant City Car Crash

R.I.P. Enrique Julio Cruz (My prayers to his lil brother tito...enrique was the what he had)

First and Foremost it is side to see how some ignorant ppl can use a website to show so much hate for a child. You have the slightest idea who this child was nor about his life, how dare you even excuse yourself with being the wife/daughter/or mother what ever the case of a soilder to give you the right to talk sh**. You must really look at the stye in your own eye. Young girl you have a lot to learn and overcome. Because obviously you were never taught respect,concern, nor love for other human beings.
One more thing if you read the article correctly umm, not all were mexican or hispanic, unfortuantely there was also "white" kids in the car as well. And Taylor being one was hurt and taken to hospital where she underwent surgery. Learn to read complete report before you run your mouth.

With that said, I must give my deepest sympathy to tito, enrique's lil brother and his friends and family. Enrique was my sons' close friend. He was a good kid with many wrongful life curve balls but always did his best to change. Like one said no one knows why he was not at home with his foster parents, or why he was in that car, the fact is that he paid the price for wrong choice. But can we actually say anything. An accident can happen anywhere, anytime, wheather an adult was in the car or not. Does it hurt, Yes. Is it scary, Yes. Especially when it hits close to home, speaking for myself mother of three teenage boys.

And per more info...the reason he didnt have seat belt on is because he decided it would be best for Taylor the other passenger to use it he would manage. Excusable, no but it was his choice. And what actually happen no one but the children in that car know. Just another bad situation to open our eyes and teach our children the precautions and consequences. But at the same time, to teach the parents or those who should be parents to be just that a "mother" a "father" so that there wouldn't be so many children out there with no role model or positive direction to make good choices.

Here I leave my stamp and again send my deepest sympathy to tito the lil brother and friends and family that are there for tito and for ENRIQUE (R.I.P) June 26, 1992 to June 30, 2008 our prayers to the new angel....

correction sad not side at the beginning, my frustration to the best of me....

wow no need to get so defensive....i think she was speaking for people in general that the wreck would be with the others the rest of their lives...i doubt very seriously she was trying to speak for the "teenage nation"...but you should probably try to keep one thing in mind...WE ALL were teenagers at one time and even though the times may change...being a teen does not change....we all went through that "era", so to speak....and even though (as i said) times may change....the experience of being a teen is the same...no matter what decade it may have been, or will be.
seems all she was trying to do (and you missed it in your fit of "i am teen, hear me roar") was extend a little courtesy and condolences to those that were left behind. so in some respect...all of us that made it through our teen years...and lived to tell of it, have an even more unique perspective of what it was like to be a teen (hence the old saying "been there, done that") perhaps you should get off the "high horse" and accept her kind words for what they were.....just kind words, and not in fact...an attack on your self imposed "teen sovereignty"
grow up little girl and learn a little humility and graciousness.
