"Wow!" I was blown away by the openess and honesty of embattled beauty queen Carrie Prejean this morning.  She admitted on the Today Show Program to making and giving her boyfriend a "sex tape."  To clarify, what she did was along the lines of sexting (i.e. sending indecent pictures of yourself via phone text). Controversy surrounds this young lady who was held up as the poster child for Christian's fighting against media corruption and those who bend left in the entertainment industry (to jog the memory, the start to her fame was her statement during a pageant that she believed marriage was to be between a man and a woman).  So why the "Wow?".

She, without missing a beat while clarifying what type of thing was on the video, regretted the decision she made regarding the making of the video and pleaded with young ladies not to be involved in such activities.  She never left this focus during her comments!  She did not rationalize, defend or attempt to cover up.  She accepted responsibility, mourned the consequences and warned young ladies to avoid such behavior.  "Wow!" 

The interview is worth watching with your daughters and/or using as a discussion piece in teen classes.
