Rachel is the spoiled, pathetic, 18-year old brat suing her parents for support after (it appears) she voluntarily left their home that she is still welcome at. I hesitate to call her a complete idiot (it's hard not to), but she's barely a legal adult (and in terms of maturity, probably still around 14).
It's tempting to blame the parents for producing and grooming such a privileged, ungrateful snot. But we over-estimate the power of parents to shape their children. Her parents appear to be guilty of having rules in their house and insisting they be followed. It's not clear what the rules are at issue that Rachel has such a beef with, but assuming they don't include daily floggings and torture, it's most likely this kid just needs to grow up.
The person that should be under fire is John Inglesino and not for allegedly allowing booze parties for Rachel and her friend (I believe his daughter), but for simply funding this nonsense as an apparently educated adult. Instead of attaching his name to what should be an obviously frivolous lawsuit, he could use that same money to support Rachel...whom he oddly is so invested in.
The sad part is that Rachel probably isn't filing this suit without some prodding or encouragement by Mr. Inglesino and when she is the inevitable maladjusted adult (likely with her own reality tv show), she may regret this.
