Pom Pom Mom Steals Daughter's Identity, Tries Out For Cheerleading Squad (VIDEO)

High school is often a complicated chapter of people's lives. As adults, some wonder what it'd be like to go back. As The Early Show correspondent Michele Gielan reports, one 33-year-old Wisconsin woman went so far as to steal her daughter's identity to do just that.

The cheerleading squad at Ashwaubenon High near Green Bay, Wis. Wendy Brown wanted to be part of it all. But at 33, she needed help. So police say she stole her 15-year-old daughter's identity.

Brown tried out for cheerleading during the summer and attended one day of classes - but then, never returned. That raised a red flag and launched an investigation. Soon, truant officers found Wendy --- sitting in the county jail.

Her defense will be she has some psychological syndrome or is a victim of something that causes her to commit fraud since the report says the lady has a history of committing fraud. Gotta feel bad for the daughter who has a her as a mom.
