User Reviews

i also support Mary Kay.

i do not see anything wrong with a love relationship between the boy and Mary Kay. she needed love and attention and the boy truly loved her and still does. not many men would take the responsibility of 2 children even in their late teens but he did at an early age. he must love her very much! so enough of the bashing Mary Kay routine. did anyone know that a 12 year old in some foreign countries are considered old enough to have sex with anyone? so what is morally right or wrong here does not mean it is right or wrong everywhere. it is up to the individuals involved. she is not a monster, she just needed love and comfort and someone who really cared. i recommend this movie to everyone, but watch it with a fair open mind.
