I just can't resist.
According to Eben, the father defended his decision to encourage her to go by saying "in this day and age, we overprotect our children".
No one will ever accuse this horse's ass of overprotecting his children. Low and behold, turns out he was trying to make a profit. Never would have seen that coming...risking your kid's life for money. I remember a video that circulated a few years ago, a guy who operated an alligator sanctuary was dangling his toddler over the open mouth of a gator. The dad was crucified for what he did. To me, that's very similar to what this Dad did. I guess likwid would say that sincde the toddler wasn't screaming "stop", that I can't judge the guy for holding a 2 year old over the mouth of a carnivorous dinosaur.
Telling a 16 year old "you can't sail solo across the world" does not amount to suffocating your children.
I can't help but be impressed by her skill (i'm assuming it takes some skill to get as far as she did in that boat). And I wish her well in life. With her parents, she has 2 strikes sgainst her
