Re: Vaness Hudgens’ nails:

Jolie’s version of the story is the same as the story that the magazine printed - she doesn’t seem to get what was wrong with it in the first place. It doesn’t matter if YOU think ‘this is an acting exercise, this money is meaningless and the children don’t get to keep it anyway’ - to those kids they’re just seeing a…

Guaranteed free dinner and drinks.

That is literally an over the shoulder boulder holder

I was pretty put off by the tone of response to the first letter too. Yes, she should probably remove herself from the situation for her own mental protection, but saying she’s just involved because she just “loves drama” or “is lonely”? What about maybe she just cares for her friend? Or she’s having PTSD from seeing…

Exactly. Maybe shoot Derek a message of support, but otherwise stay the hell out. If Jerry is really so good at setting people up to view him as their sole lifeline, anything she tries to do will probably just play into that. She can just be supportive if the time comes, but stay the hell out of it until then. People…

I admit I’m not a fan of Jane Marie personally (not since the reactions to her articles about flying with her daughter or trying to get a neck tattoo), so I’m biased, but I have to agree with you here. This was really not very good advice.

I feel you are missing a very large third option-Empathy. Sometimes people genuinely are concerned for vulnerable and wronged people, especially if it is something they know well about. It is frustrating to see someone behave in an abusive manner towards an ill person with no one batting an eye. Abuse within a…

IF she’s actually friends with the woman in the first scenario, the absolute BEST option is to let her know you’re available if she ever needs to talk or needs a friend. That way when the shit hits the fan she won’t feel so alone - if she’s smart enough to turn to you. But only if she’s really kicked him to the curb.…

I have to scold you: Stop calling therapists “shrinks.” This reframing will help, I promise. Words have meaning and shrink is a slur; these are highly trained individuals who want you to GROW, not shrink.

Supporting your child might also mean letting him know when you think he’s doing the wrong thing, and helping him face appropriate consequences. I’m not a parent but I’m pretty sure that’s part of raising a child.

I was just thinking about what if I was his mother (or the mother of some other shitbag boy)... how do you deal with this? They’re your kid so I’m sure there is some sort of natural inclination to defend them and protect them. But you gotta also be able to have some sense of reality.

It’s insane. When stories of terrible parents defending their rotten children like this happen my own mother always says “you don’t understand, you’re not a parent”. I don’t particularly want to be a parent if it means that I would completely compromise my own morals in such a manner.

Tatro’s mother told investigators that her son has received apologetic texts from one of the girls since the accusations came out, which said the situation was “blown out of proportion,” and that she hoped nothing bad would happen to him.

Preachin’ to the chyre.

You can see yourself out.

I believe he committed Wyre Fraud in this case.

STEVE HOLT!

The fact that she felt it necessary to wear it in Pakistan to avoid the stares of men is just another way of “forcing” women to wear the burqa.
