I was asking the original poster what their feelings were about the situation, so the response of someone other than the original poster (regardless of rather or not it is "reasonable") would not be an answer to my question unless that person had the ability to read the original poster's mind.

Given that I imagine this isn't the first time (today, even) that Rebecca has dealt with someone using this exact tactic, that waffles009 is the one that started with the name slinging ("rubber necking" most certainly is a judgement) and that her core point that dictating what women are and aren't allowed to talk/care…

I can see what you're saying here, and as a parent myself, I, too feel as though I've gotten a lot more sensitive about these things over the years. At the same time, I've also discovered, as a parent and through life experience, that these things are happening way more often than we think, particularly abuse and…

Small business owner should fire liabilities or stop owning a business

Maybe you should let the person to whom the question was addressed answer it.

I was too embarrassed for everyone to finish the video.

And I feel that this type of comment amounts to silencing, pure and simple. This woman was likely suffering from a severe and possibly undiagnosed (or miss-diagnosed or under-diagnosed) mental illness and that's a very real, horrible issue that women all over the world deal with every day. Yes, I realize there is a…

Your vast array of proof has convinced me.

Even if that was the case, the employee could have easily avoided it by not being an asshole. I can't feel sorry for someone who makes their own bad luck that way. If you doll shit out you deserve to get shit in return.

This is Utah. People are already ignoring a ton of evil shit trust me.

I didn't assume that the OP was equating this.

I assumed that this was a friendly PSA for any comment readers who may feel concerned about having a baby/etc.

How did nobody notice that this woman was pregnant, gave birth and POOF! no more baby.

I normally have very little compassion (read:none) for folks who injure babies or children, but serially getting pregnant and then committing infanticide is not the action of a sane person. She must either have been mentally ill, or in some kind of horrific abuse situation that she would consider killing her own…

I'd be willing to bet they're withholding the seventh charge in case she somehow skates on the first six. There's no statute of limitations on murder so it would be a hedge on the part of the DA.

Reminder: most states have safe haven laws. If, for whatever reason, you are panicked about needing to care for a baby or feel the need to hide that you had a baby, please drop the child off at a hospital, police station, or fire station. It will be cared for.

UGH. YES. This is why Naomi is the greatest.I watch her show The Face and she's so conscious of uplifting the WoC who make it on the show. Carmen Carrera is also just an amazing woman, and I'm so in love with the way she uses her fame for advocacy, including calling out Drag Race, the show that made her famous, for…

"I've never been to Africa, but I feel like I have this deep affinity for it," Ms. Hanley Mellon said. "I've read every Hemingway, we collect Peter Beard, I've watched 'Out of Africa.' It touches your soul to visit and smell the smells, and you can't recreate the experience without immersing yourself."

I guess she…

I would find appearing on this show more stressful than Jeopardy, which is my lifelong dream. That said, this is still hilarious.

Maybe think about taking a leave of absence or going on short term or long term disability to deal with your current serious medical issues. I don't think Sbux is the answer and it could cause you more stress. I would make an appointment right away with your dr. because it sounds like you might be in a manic episode…
