A cautionary tale

We've all done it, sent a text to the wrong person by mistake, but some mistakes are more troublesome than others.
 
Meet Elizabeth (Lizzy) Frisinger, 18, who is currently not enjoying her 15 minutes of fame on the internet. According to the Post Chronicle Ms Frisinger was on a school trip away from home.
 
As is often the case when kids are out from under the spotlight of parental supervision Ms Frisinger seems to have had a wild old time, culminating in her losing her virginity on a beach with an unnamed boyfriend.
 
The only reason this was deemed news was becasue she saw fit to text the news to a friend of hers by the name of Darcy.
 
"OMG! Just had 1st time on beach! Gr8! Wish u were here!"
 
Unfortunately for Ms Frisinger she hit the wrong address button on her phone and instead of Darcy getting the message it was sent to her Dad.
 
Fatherhood has many joys but I'm willing to bet good money that Mr Frisinger is currently reaching for the brain bleach. It's not news that anyone would welcome about their little girl.
 
Judging from his response Ms Frisinger is going to have some explaining to do.
 
"Class trip is over. Tomorrow 7:10 am Delta #*** Use my credit card for taxi."
 
Her 'friends' have taken a screenshot of the messages and blogs are going nuts trying to find out if the story is true or not. It appears to be a little too perfect a story in my mind but no doubt time will tell.
 
One has to feel for the poor girl, it's a mistake anyone could make. Just remember the cautionary tale next time you text.
