Yep. No these parents aren’t doing the best for their kid- they think their kid is broke and wrong. They’re chasing an “ideal” child they want.

Oh ya, I had only ever experienced it in summer before I got to go in the fall. It was like “ah ha” this is what its all about. I wouldn’t go any other time now!

November is my recommended month, even cooler than spring, way fewer crowds and they have the entire resort decorated for Christmas then but its not as busy as Dec. (And its like one of the biggest lights displays in the world, if not the biggest.)

This is truth my volatile family has never gone there without an epic multi-member family nuclear meltdown. And we used to go a lot.

I get all this so much. I get shook to the core when people are like “1999 was 2 decades ago” now. 

I thought she mentioned how gross it made her feel and she doesn’t do it anymore.

The 20/20 episode was really superb. It has audio of her real voice on it.

George Schultz basically repeatedly fucked over his own grandson for her, getting him sicced by teams of lawyers and threatened with charges. It was brutal.

She also apparently has Asperger’s which add to the power imbalance. We’re not lacking in intelligence or the ability to consent, so I don’t want talk like I’m discounting her agency there. But its been studied that we don’t “scheme” like or detect being schemed by neurotypical people. (No offense intended, y’all.) We…

Oh my dear, read this! This is what Lori wanted for Princess Nincompoop, to stupid her way into power (Mossimo’s a Trump fan apparently so that’s probably part of their inspiration). Please forgive me for linking to DM, I'm sick and its the first version that popped up when I searched- https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/…

Same, I worry for her when I see this stuff. And I never even listened to Michael or anything. She just always seemed like a sweet kid put in an impossible situation by the lottery of birth.

I am partial to the state theories- its either another part of the massive but poorly executed Russian trolling schemes or some really cheap NSA operation to keep unstable alt-right and Trump fanatics preoccupied and tracked via engagement by just throwing tons of nonsense at them. 

His fixation on her strikes me as possibly not just weird harassment of any lesbian, but from particular presentation style wise maybe some closeted based homophobia by him a bit?

One aspect that is ccontroversial is as many of these people got in as fake sports recruits, they very possibly did take one of the few spots under-priviledged people might have had a shot at, as athletics is sometime their only chance at going to such good schools, as team recruits get special guaranteed admission.…

Literally just like middle schoolers. (Which is a whole different kind of disturbing.)

The guy who ran this criminal admissions network and his key deputies are cooperating for reduced sentences, they’ll presumably be filling them in. If they don’t, leniency deals get pulled.

Or at the very bargain basement gesture free fucking applications.

Poor Andrew. 

I can’t imagine how this isn’t an illegal massive HIPAA violation.

What you mean by an administration run by rapist Trump?
