I've always felt sympathy for this family. Hope the siblings can stick together and be well. RIP Leslie.

this family had so many issues with their parents. They had talent but no support, Nick was the parent in this family which was not fair. I hope that Aaron stays sober, he fought for that and should be respected for this battle.

Really sorry for their loss but why do these celebs/wannabe celebs always say..“We request the utmost privacy during this difficult time.”..do they think we are going to find out where they live and come to their home to hassle them?

I think they mean that they don't want to answer a bunch of questions from the media. It's being suggested that substance abuse was involved so I'm guessing the family doesn't want to address that right now.

i'm not sure what's more surprising...the fact that one of the Carters (i hate that i had to refer to them as if they are some sort of musical dynasty, but whatever) is dead or the fact that it's not Aaron...
