Elizabeth Lauten's criticism of First Family daughters A Elizabeth Lauten criticized Obama's daughters for their seemingly bored demeanor at White House Turkey Pardoning event. Her Facebook says: Dear Sasha andMalia, I get you’re both in those awful teen years, but you’re a part of the First Family, try showing a little class. At least respect the part you play. Then again your mother and father don’t respect their positions very much, or the nation for that matter, so I’m guessing you’re coming up a little short in the ‘good role model’ department......And certainly don’t make faces during televised public events. my question: "Your mother and father don't respect their positions very much, or the nation for that matter, so I'm guessing you're coming up a little short in the 'good role model' department." what did she mean? did she mean the president does not respect the presidency and USA? thank you for your help and your time
