Honestly who thinks they’re great people? They suck and have for years. They’re the worst kind of stereotype about our school.
He had PLENTY OF MONEY to hire competent legal counsel. Don't hate on the Touhy family because he was too lazy, stupid, or tight-fisted to hire counsel.

Well...there's a lot of questions and issues and I'm not saying there aren't. I'm also not testifying for the Tuohys.
BUT, it appears undisputed that they:
Brought him into their home to live, with their two children.
Fed him. I can only imagine how much he consumed each meal.
Clothed him.
Brought him to school, and other places.
Gave him love and emotional support.
No doubt all those other small daily things that parents do.
Hired a professional tutor working 20 hrs/week.
Helped him (along with others) navigate academics, raising his grades from basically 0.0 to passing.
And who knows what else?
Anyone with children knows what a demand that is, every day, even for your own biological children. It's crazy to me how all of that is just being ignored with this feeding frenzy.
