I would be angry at Craig too! Stupid boy! How dare he put anyone's image online without asking permission! What a thoughtless idiot.
Sounds very out of character for Craig.
Although I agree with the comments about Craig about posting the photo of Bethany, at the same token,I wondered why would Bethany go on a children's swing set anyway?A swing set,I may add that David brought for his children on their late mother's birthday.
I'm sympathetic to Bethany being bullied but this seems a contrived ploy to drag the storyline longer.
