(Comments)I think Dominique needs some time for herself. She has entered into the stage where she has to make one of the biggest, challenging and difficult decisions and actions in her life and making decisions and actions is one of the ultimate and challenging things which a person has to deal with in life. Since Dominique has made her decision to live her own life, as of the moment, let us let her do what she wishes but  she should get in good terms with her parents in the future.  I pray and hope that, aside from her gymnastics, she would continue her studies and, eventually, finish her studies and earn a degree for her future rests on her education. She would be very successful in life if she has a degree aside from her gymnastics.

(Comments)When I first heard the news I was very upset at what I saw. First I was directly on the side of Domi. Then I started to think what the hell is Domi thinking! I mean sure her parents have done very bad things with her money and should be punished but... It is all a very confusing matter. The person I feel the worst for is Christina I mean her idol her mentor and her friend has suddenly in her mind gone crazy. It must be horror for her sister to just run away. The worst part is what is she to do about it. Nothing is the best advice. So im backing Christina in this matter I hope Domi or her parents can come to some kind of a conclusion before it is too late.  Im backing ya-  Christina

(Comments)  I know Dominique since 1994 and I was really sad when I read that she was going to independence of her family. I understand very well Dominique and I wish her really the best. I love her and I don´t wan´t to see her sad. If she is sad, I will also be.

(Comments)I don't really know what side to take. Dominique has worked hard all her life and tried to live up to her parents potential.  I think she deserves every bit of that money.  Yet, Dom's parents, from what I have heard and read, have and will do anything for her.  I hope that they can work this out and still be close if not closer.  I wish the whole Moceanu family the best.  Also, look out for Christina, this is effecting her also and she deserves to live happily with ALL the people she loves.  I wish you the best of luck.

(Comments)  I agree with what Dominque is doing totally. From what I heard she was pressured into gymnatics. I mean if you hang your child on a clothesline when they are six months old isn't that pathatic? I would do the same thing if I were Dominique. You go girl! :):)

Carinne- California
(Comments)  I think that everyone involved should have sat back and viewed the situation before coming to such a hasty decision.  Dominique has been raised by her parents.  They have given her many things.  Yes, it may have been with her money.  And I do believe that Dominique has every right to know where her money has gone.  I also think that her parents had no right to any of her money.  I don't care how far or much
they had to travel for her.  She's their daughter!!  Having kids isn't free.  If you're going to have kids, you have to know that there is going to be a big investment involved.  This whole situation is unfortunate. The most unfortunate part, however, is the outcome.  Yes, Dominique may be a very intelligent young woman.  But that is just the thing, she's young. And she is going to find out that even though she'll have the freedom to do what she wants with her money, life on your own is not easy.  But since this is the path she has chosen, we must all pray forer!

(Comments)  I felt shocked when I first heard about Dominique sueing her parents.  It's probably the last thing you ever want to do to your parents.  But if you have to do so, you just have to.  In Dominique's case, I believe she did the right thing.  If someone ever spent my earnings or even attempt to fire my coach, I would have immediately done the same thing Dominique did.  I'm glad an agreement was reached between
Dominique and her parents.  However, I feel sorry for the fact that Dominique worked so hard for her earnings.  Then to have her earnings taken away by her parents was especially shocking.  I just hope Dominique's parents start giving her answers about where all her money went if they haven't done so already and basicly just settle this issue little by little so they can be closer together.  I wish Dominique the absolute best and I hope she has a bright future ahead.

(Comments)Earlier I asked if she knew what she was getting into.  I don't think she does, but I can tell that she has been thinking about this carefully, only the other way around.  She needed to take control of her finances. The only way it seems she could was to become a legal adult.  That's what she did. Dominque is an amazing woman who has shown the U.S. and the world that she can do anything she puts her mind to, and I'm sure she can make it, even without her parents.  Godspeed, Dominque.

Natalie- Natalie140@aol.com
(Comments)  I feel Dominique has a right to do what she wants.  I think she is plenty mature enough to become an adult and has a right to do what she wants with her money.  She worked very hard for it.  I have been a Dominique fan for 5 years .  I hate to see something like this happen.  i am glade Dominique has got her wish and made up with her parents.  i wish her the very bestof luck with everything.  She seems like a very nice person.  I met her twice!

(Comments)  I honestly feel bad for Dominique, I think the settlment was in the best intrest for her parents and her. I have followed Dominique since 1995, and I thought that after winning the gold medal at the GoodWIll games, this is not soething that should have to happen to her. I really feel bad that this had to happen and I hope that this is the end of it, and she can get back to a normal life.

(Comments)  I don't really think any of us have the right to comment on this situation, because we don't know all the facts. I was at the US Nationals this year and Dom looked terribly unhappy, I now know why.

Scott-  USA
(Comments)  It's the same with every child celebrity, if we're looking for someone to blame this situation on it's not Dominique or her parents It's the media and the people for craving for in information on celebrities.  People should learn to focus on their own life's and not worry about celebrities.

Alexia
(Comments)  Dominique has a good head on her shoulders, and I am positive things will all turn out in the end. This must be the only way that she knew of to get through to her parents, and it is very unfortunate it had to be this way. I believe that the sport of gymnastics is stressfull enough, and it saddens me to know that she has to go through this along side it. I am hoping and praying that this experience does not effect her
training or competitions in any way. She is definately a hopeful for the Sydney olympics (along with Vanessa and Kristen), and it would be a shame for that to go to waste. Good luck Domi, I know you can get through this. We love you and support you.

Carol- strongc@viewsonic.com- California
(Comments)  I think Dominique has every right to sue her parents, primarily her father.  Dominique's father is a money hungry, greedy, ambitious, doesn't care about his daughter's feelings, free loader.  How dare he not work for two years!  To think he was living off of a child's earnings.  True, her parents are the ones that supported her and helped her reach her goals, but thats still no excuse to spend money that never belonged to them.  Her father was a used car salesman and should have remained that way.  If he wanted to make the gym his business then he should have spent his own money on the gym and asked Dominique if it was OK to use some of her money, not all of it.  Like she said, she never told him to build a 70,000 square foot gym.  She said that her father is an adult and that he knew what he was getting into.  I feel really bad for Dominique, not her parents.  They brought this whole mess on themselves and now that Dominique has won, they will suffer the consequensces of being negligent about their daughter's earnings and more important, her feelings. I'm glad that she will be in control of her future and that she is on her own now. Now she can focus on what she wants to do and what is best for her, and not her parents!

(Comments)  I feel bad for Dominique. Even though an agreement has been
reached, it's still unfortunate to see all the money she worked so hard
for being used, and not being used with her discretion. I hope Dominique
gets some money back...Maybe that's not possible, but she definitely
deserves some answers from her parents, especially her father!

Tim- tcrosson@ili.net- MI
(Comments)  I think Dominiques going overboard.  She's too young to be
out on her own.  Besides why would you want to grow up anyway?

Danielle-  nessanique@hotmail.com- USA
(Comments)  Well, I feel bad for the entire Moceanu family.  In a way, I feel really bad for Dominique.  She has a right to know what has been done with all the money that she has made in the last few years.  I wish her parents would be honest about it with her.  I understand her reasoning for wanting control of her money but realisticly, I don't think she could handle it.....especially with traing  if thatis still what she wants.  The other comment of Dominique's that I also agree with is if her parents haven't been working since 1996 then where are they getting the money to but "stuff"?  My answer is....Dominique.  But I also feel for the parents.  It must be devastating to me in such a huge mess with their own daughter.  I also think that they deserve some of Dominique's success because it was her parents that helped get her their.  They made the risks and sacrafices to help fulfill her dream, and now they deserve a break from the constant trips to the gym and training payments.  But also, two years is enough I think it's about time that they start working again and settinga good example for Christina....incase she doesn't turn out to be as successfull in gymnastics.  But then again, looking at this from another angle.....is it true that they were the ones that kept planting the idea of the Olympics in Dominique's head?  They also don't seem to pay as much attention to Christina....but perhaps they do, it just doesn't get plastered on the news like Dominique's actions are.  Basically, this is just a huge mess right now, but I hope it workd out for the best.

(Comments)  I feel bad that dominique has had to go through so much
already not to mention that oh her parents are spending the money she
makes. That is outragoues.  By got though so much already I meant that I
felt bad about having lost out on a childhood and having never led a
normal life.  Who deserves that?  I mean she was practically breed for gymnastics.

Ted- tab223@psu.edu- Sharpsville, PA
(Comments)  I would like to comment on my last comment in which I doubted how justified Domi was in doing this, but now after hearing more info about it and watching about it on Dateline last night, I would like to change my thoughts.  I now believe she has every right in the world to do what she is doing, she was only protecting her coach and didn't want to be forced to give up something she had worked so hard to achieve.  Do what you may Domi, we're all behind ya. Thanks.

(Comments)  I love dominiqe with all my heart----i think of her like a
big sister. i even chose my confirmation name after her......but what shes doing to her parents is wrong. they have done so much for her....they moved to a native country for her upbringing....they struggled to pay for her gymnastics classes.....without them she wouldn't have been getting the money.

Linda L- Link77@Webtv.net- LA CA
(Comments)  I want to clarify to everyone that The REASON Domi is Sueing is because
of the poor financial Decisions her parents have made. They gambled away
all of Domi's earnings on a gym. That is a huge risk. Kurt Thomas brought
this to her attention cause he owns a gym himself and realized that the
gym was obviously losing money. Miscenco only encouraged her to look out
for her financial future.Her parents are extremely controlling as you can
see by making her trust fund available to her after she is 35!!!!!!My god
they wanted to control her money until she was that old.When she said she
wanted her own trust fund they said she had to pay for everything
herself. AS for spoiled for trading in her car. She only learned that
from her parents crazy spending themselves. They spent her money on their
own Mercedes . And bought a house which they probably can't
afford.Haven't they ever heard of saving? I think they are the kids and
Domi is the adult.Domi if you are reading this I give you my su pport 100%
and I think you are a sweet intelligent girl. Good for you for investigating the matter.

Lavonne- DixieMeloD@aol.com- Mississippi
(Comments)  What a terrible situation this child is in. I think the
courts will rule her a legal adult, but she is still only 17 years old.
There is now a wedge struck within her family.  What a horrible situation
to be in, but if there were not any merit in what Dominique is doing,
then there would be no courts and no lawyers. Too bad her parents felt
they had a meal ticket. I see this all the time in the entertainment
industry. My prayer is that Dominique will be able to persevere and
eventually have a renewed relationship with her family. There is much more to the story than we know, I hope the best interest of Dominique is served.

david ludwig- deludwig@hotmail.com- tucson,AZ
(Comments)  Dom has been through more adversity at the age of 17 than
most people go through in a lifetime.  Sure, she is beautiful, rich, and
famous  but is all this worth the loss of her childhood? She is ready to
be off on her own and to finally live her life for herself rather than
her parents or anyone else.

Carrie- gymusa@rocketmail.com- California, MD
(Comments)  I always has a feeling that something was up.  Ever since the
Olympics and even before she never really seemed happy.  I think what she
is doing is what she needs to do.  If she can gain some control in her
life then her gymnastics will follow.  If all she is worried about is
winning to support her family she will burn out in no time...GOOD LUCK
DOM WE ARE ALL BEHIND YOU!!!

Michelle
(Comments)  I believe that Dominique should have known what her father
was doing with her money.  After all she did earn it.  There is more to
this than just money though.  For all these years her life has been
nothing but gymnastics.  When she comes home from practice she doesn't
have a regular life at home.  It's all gymnastics.  So she is not happy.
Being happy is what's important.  So I think that this lawsuit is also a
way for her to get her parents' to listen to her because they won't any
other way.  Unfortunately, due to this lawsuit, the sport of gymnastics
is going to draw in a lot of publicity that focuses mainly on the
negative aspects of the sport.  This is unfortunate for those of us who
know that this sport offers much more than what everyone thinks.

(Comments)  I think Dominiques a great gymnast and all....We never knew
about her REAL life I guess.   She is, and will always be a great
gymnast.  I feel so bad for her.  We never knew any of it gosh....Its so
good that shes taking control and I am behind her 100%!  No matter what.
Because she knows what she wants, shes great!

Kai- Redlands, CA
(Comments)  I think Dominique is an amazing person and she has a lot of
talent.  I think that it is horrible what she and her parents are going
through.  I think she has the right to manage her money that she makes,
but it is up to her to decide what happens.  I wouldn't say that I would
divorce my parents, but hopefully she and her parents can work things
out.  She needs to keep her mind on practicing her gymnastics so she will
be prepared for the 2000 Olympics.

kevin mustane
(Comments)  I think that this is all one big mess. Both parties involved
should step back and examine the situation. Dominique should have been
minding her finances to begin with, and I also think that she has gone
just a tad too far. Her father also will get no sympathy from me because
of one thing-Someone had to do something with that money! As for Camelia
and Christina, God bless the both of you for putting up with this freak
show.

kris- stinkykris- ny
(Comments)  She said that she was deprived of a normal childhood-yeah, but people
with normal childhood's don't have gold medals, mercedes at 17, or
millions of dollars. She should try to work things out without the court.
this case is giving her a "spoiled brat throughing  a temper tamtrum"

(Comments)  This was a big shock to me. Yet for some reason I saw it
coming. Just take a look at her post-olympic competitions. She was
miserable!!! I bet all she wanted to was be a normal teenager after the
olympics but her parents forced her to continue gymnastics. If I needed
prove, I can point out many post-olympic interviews were she stated that
she just wanted to be a normal teenager for once. Well, good luck Nique,
I'll pray for you.

Broze
(Comments)  I think this entire situation is tragic. I remember the first
time I saw Dominique, when she was competing in Atlanta. She was so cute
and bubbly, always smiling. Now we see that there was pain behind that
smile. I sincerely hope that Dominique has the stregnth to come through
this ordeal without emotional scars. I love watching her compete, but
more than that I want her to be a happy, well-adjusted adult.

Angela- angrog@hotmail.com- Winnipeg, Canada
(Comments)  I think she's doing the right thing.  Even if her parents do
have control over her money, she should still know where it's going.  And
they shouldn't be able to control her emotions like that either.  I think
she'll get through this ok, with all the support she's getting.  Good
luck Dom... hope everything works out for the best!!!

Kelly- California
(Comments)  I think it is too early to say who is telling the
truth-Dominique or her parents.  If her parents are telling the truth,
then I believe that Dominique made a huge mistake in suing her parents.
If there really was a problem going on, Nique could've talked to her
parents, she didn't have to sue for independance. This was a very selfish
move on her part she probably didn't think about how this could affect
her little sister.  However, her folks aren't telling her where her money
is,that seems to imply that there is no money. In that case, I would
support her. No matter who is telling the truth, her life is going to
change forever.

Ted- tab223@psu.edu- Sharpsville, PA
(Comments)  I would like to think that its all her father's fault that
she is acting this way, but for some reason thats hard to believe.  She
has been America's Sweetheart for five years now and i believe its
catching up with her.  I believe there has to be someone behind her
pushing her to act this way.  This is not the Dominique we all know and
love.  If she is still thinking about Sydney she better get this resolved
as soon as possible and get back on track or she'll be left behind.  The
sports not going to stop and wait for her.  Come on Domi, pick up the
pieces and move on...

Chadd- Sheeppdog@aol.com
(Comments)  Being just a year a way from becomeing a legal adult anyways
I think they should just declare her competent to take care of herself.
After listening to her dad in the press conference it really sounds like
he is had pushed her too hard to compete.  And most likely spent a lot of
her money.  In the mean time she is welcome to come and visit me at my
house.

Alan- arinehar@pressenter.com- St. Paul, MN
(Comments)  Although I'm a great fan of Dominque, I think that she is
spoiled rotton and if she dosn't get everything her way, she has a fit.
She has everything that a 17 could ever want and more- a Mercedes?  Bah-
I'm stuck driving a '94 Ford Tempo!   Dominque should really look closer
into what she is doing.  There are alot of people who she is a rold model
too and by doing this you give alot of people the wring impression about
just being able to leave your parents whenever you want.  It's just not
right.

Shawn- sms1117@aol.com- New Orleans
(Comments)  I feel that Dominique has every right to know what is being done with her money even if she is not an adult.  She earned the money with her hard work and dedication to gymnastics.  I hope that this situation can be resolved soon so she can get on with her life.

(Comments) I believe that Dominique ofcourse is in a very difficult situation for any teenager muchless a Famous one.  I think she will be just fine because shes such a strong person and has alot of support from millions of us Dominique freaks and i hope she never forgets it.

(Comments)  I feel so bad for Dominque, I always thought her parents were nice, not any more. I think that Domi should be able to be an legal adult because she is very mature and I am postive that she could handle her own money!!!!!!! and I think her parents should have to pay her back, big time!!!!! I also feel very sorry for her sister Christina, if my brother ever left and wanted to become an adult I would be very upset!!! I am sure Christina is very sad. Please keep Domi and her family in your prayers!!!!!!

(Comments)  I must say, when I found out about all this controversy dealing with Dominique Moceanu and her parents, I was extremely surprised, I always thought she led a dream life since she won a gold medal at the '96 Olympics. To commentate on this, I would have to say that Dominique should have all rights to her financial duties and earnings, but she should also be willing to take some guidance from her parents. At 17, I don't think she really knows what to do in tough financial situations should they arise. I hope she works everything out with her mom and dad, and come to an agreement that satisfies all.

Ashley
(Comments)  I am sorry to hear about all the troubles the Moceanu family is having, but i'm also glad that Dominique is finally speaking out about it in an
attempt to fix the problem.  As a former gymnast, i know all the stresses and committments that go into the sport as well as the injuries etc, i also know that no matter what the parents say or do, they can make you go to practice, but only the child can give it their all to win and be the best that they can be.  I definitely think the majority of the money belongs to her. Although I am only 17, i think only a small portion of the money should go to her parents for all the traveling and such involved in the sport. I wish her the best of luck.

Jenna
(Comments)  I feel very badly for DM and her family. She is an incredible talent and now claims her parents robbed her of her childhood.  I think it's one of those things - you just don't know how your kids will feel when they grow up.  maybe DM just wants to be a regular kid for a while and not feel as if she is disappointing everyone if she doesn't follow a schedule.  She's a senior in high school and probably looks at her classmates and sees some of the things she missed out on.

(Comments)  "What we see in this allegation, it's not her.   We don't recognize
her..."  I am a huge fan of Dominique's but right now I don't know who
she is.  It is like someone is brainwashing her telling her exactly what
to say.  I her whole press conference she did not use "like" one time.
That tells me that she is repeating qoutes from someone else...
Someone like her coach, Miscenco.  I am sorry but everything fits she was
fired on Saturday and threatened to be deported back to romania.  Sunday
Dominiuqe filed the report.   The coach is money hungry and doesn't care
who she hurts even if it is Dominique.   If my allegations are true I
hope the women is convicted to life in prison or put to death. Because
she is hurting Dominique more than her parents could ever!!!  I hope
Dominique comes to reality and notices this before the hearing on
November 11.   We love you Dominique not her!!!

Katie
(Comments)  I think it is horrible that Domi's paretns are stealing money
away from her!  I feel horribl for her, although I read she was a kid who
justy the other week was sick of her Mercedes??????  Spoiled?  Yes I feel
bad but Domi could have done a little more!

(Comments)  I say more power to her!  Whatever whe thinks is best is
probably what is.  If she feels she nees this-then so be it!  "the song
'Devil went down to Georgia' says: 'the Devil was looking for a soul to
steal..'  Looks like he didn't get Moceanu's."  -from an article fron San

and what she made her parents should not be controling her life and abuseing her as a child and using her for  her money they should love her for who she is and not for her money!

(Comments)  I think that what Dominique did was very grown up and she
acts grown up so she should be a legal adult.
