I've met him and his family. His dad is a crazy russian. The kid ate nothin but vegetables I believe, no soda no cookies nothing. His dad seemed worse than Hitler. I met him at a bbq. The kid is the sweetest kid though, his sister as well. This was 7yrs ago. I think the mom is a little different too.
I pray for this kid. He should be o.k though.
Funny thing, after his dad went to jail, what did the kid do? Try to get back in the shape his dad put him in for a movie.. Something his dad was prepping him for.
This is a sick story of something good being totally overdone.
