if this was a stunt by the parents, I want them in Jail!!! They probably cost thousands of taxpayer dollars

if the parents were behind it, they should be held responsible to repay the money that was spent on looking for that kid

How embarassing - attention whores.  Maybe they wanna be the next Jon and Kate and constantly be in the media even though no one gives a crap.

at a minimum Dana, they should pay more than that, what about all the people at Denver international whose flights were delayed, what about the men in the helicopters risking their life to try to help. If it was truely a stunt it is really sick, and those parents should have their kids taken away if they used their kids lives as a publicity stunt

adam_dana

that's true.  There were so many angencies involved

For sure it was the parents. I mean the boy is only six! I agree they should get a big time fine or something. They have been on that show twice. Really?? Get over yourselves.

Did you hear that his morning they were on the today show and the kid started throwing up on camera and the Dad just kept on rolling on with the interview.

yea he threw up twice on two different shows!!  They just let him go to the batroom alone and Diane sawyer was said "ummmm should someone go with him" and the mom was like "oh can i?, ok"....?????. Something is definitely off with those parents
