Is there an official psychiatric diagnosis for people who keep filing frivolous lawsuits? Rachel Canning, who became the poster child for spoiled teens when she sued her parents for college tuition and support after moving out, has now filed a restraining order against her boyfriend.
By the way, this is the same boyfriend her parents tried to ban her from seeing before she moved out and filed suit.
Canning, who graduated from Morris Catholic High School this spring and is headed for Western New England University this fall on a $56,000 scholarship, accused Lucas Kitzmiller, 18, of choking her with his hands during a quarrel early this past Sunday morning, according to Canning’s father, Sean Canning.
The incident allegedly occurred after midnight Saturday into the early-morning hours Sunday.
The alleged assault of Canning, 18, by Kitzmiller occurred on the street. She says that she fled in her vehicle — and that Kitzmiller tried to stop her — then she drove to Denville Police headquarters.
Maybe her parents were on to something! If Canning was assaulted, that’s terrible – but she could have avoided it by listening to her parents.
Victim or not, Rachel Canning embodies everything that’s wrong with the younger generation. She’s a spoiled kid who doesn’t want to listen to Mom and Dad, but nonetheless expects them to foot the bill for her “liberated” lifestyle. Hopefully this was a wake-up call for her – and other entitled teens hoping to follow the same path.
Our society is in a flat spin out of control. This young woman is a victim, not of her parents or even boyfriend but of society. We have allowed the fringe to dictate “normal” for so long all common sense and morals have left the buioding. Only when we restrict Lawyers to a fixed rate of judgements AND hold them accountable in cases they lose in the same percentage will this stop. Example lawyer loses a suit in which defendent owes plaintiff $1,000,000 the lawyer would pay the same percentage to plaintiff as would recieve from client. Let them get some skin in the game. Same idea as stock market….all the profits none of the risk.
There are a lot of teens that are being raised in this society and are responsible young people. Both the parents and the child have a role in this. Self centered people are nothing new BUT the entitlement generation is growing. We need to start giving those in need a hand up rather than a hand out.
That girl seems to be very insecure and defiant. But, she knows how to get negative attention.
WHAT I’VE BEEN POSTING SINCE DAY 1: Can we now PLEASE take care of the much more serious situation in which there was SERIOUS DAMAGE and NOT TWO parents??? These 4 children were failed by the Morris County Court System, Morristown NJ.

While it it never acceptable to use violence I can understand what drove him to it.
Could there be a thug involved here?
