3. “The cheap, self-serving arrogance of someone like Hilar[ee] to leave her TWO young children at risk for losing their mother just so she has a super story to tell at cocktail parties is terrible judgment at best, and disgusting narcissism at worst,” read one comment. “Hilar[ee] had her shot pre-children. Now, post-children, she is putting their lives at risk as well as [her] own. No awards for Mom of the year here.”
原译文：有人评论：“希拉里离开自己的两个小孩，以让他们冒着失去母亲的危险来换取她在鸡尾酒会上的谈资，像她这样人，有着廉价且自私的气焰，这中气焰顶多是种糟糕的判断，最坏也只是过度自恋。希拉里曾伤害过自己的孩子过去。现在，还要伤害还自己未来，拿他们和自己的生命冒险。如今的母亲无可褒奖之处。”
审校后：有人评论道，“希拉里离开两个年幼的孩子，让他们冒着失去母亲的危险，换取自己在鸡尾酒会上夸夸其谈的资本，这种人低贱而自私，说得好听点是判断有误，说得难听点是过度自恋。希拉里生孩子前登山，现在有了孩子，她又在拿他们和自己的生命冒险。如今的母亲毫无可取之处。”
