Show Some Respect
Look, whatever is going on between Lindsay Lohan and her dad has been brewing for years and years. Sure they got along for awhile when she got out of her most recent stay in rehab, but when she realized it was all about Michael, Michael, Michael and the money he could make from her, they drifted apart. Fine. Cool. Happens.
Because Michael enjoys hearing himself talk, and often runs out of anything useful to say, he ends up pissing people off when he continues to yammer. He did so last week and Lindsay got pissed. But, at the end of the week, when Michael's dad died, there appeared to be a little crack or sliver for some love to appear.
Nope. Here is where I take issue with Lindsay. Your grandfather had a funeral in New York. You were in New York. Maybe your grandfather and you were not close. Maybe he tried to always borrow money from you or coke or whatever. I don't know. Maybe you just decided you would stick it to your dad by not going to his dad's funeral. Fine. Your choice. Narrow minded and child like, but ok. I mean there is the possibility if you had gone that your dad would have sold the photos to a tabloid. But hey, at least he didn't ask you to contribute flowers.
So, if you are trying to get back at your dad, then do so, but do so with some respect for your grandfather, because without him, you wouldn't be walking the earth. If you want to stay at home while the funeral is going on, then by all means do so. If you and Sam are playing 101 Uses For A Hat, then by all means continue your game.
What isn't right, and what you did, is to go out shopping during the funeral, and let yourself get photographed laughing and giggling like you didn't have a care in the world. What you were basically saying is F**k you grandpa. I just don't think that is right. What kind of example are you setting for all those school kids who always run up to you because of the Disney films? Are you telling them to stick it to their grandfather also?
Look, it is your life, and your lessons to learn, but this one was about as low as you can go.
