How many men in Ohio were arrested last night for touching strippers? 100? 500?

“Don’t do it again” would imply that Trump finally believes that Russia meddled in the election. So it would actually be his strongest statement to date on the issue. 

Don’t do the Novichok one, it come soff as athreat on the life of the US president and you don’t want to party with the Secret Service for it. 

Sorry for jumping to conclusions— I clearly read your comment in a different tone than it was meant.

And true. It is a delightful throwback to a time before TMZ, paparazzi, text machines and “leaked” sex tapes. It’s for people who think that People Magazine is too tough on celebrities. 

Thanks. I recently read about how some CPS offices are using analytics to evaluate cases to flag high-risk situations. The computers are better at flagging families where kids are in imminent danger and it also forces the agency to do more because otherwise there’s a record that they ignored the data. I’d love to see…

I believe so, yes. 

It’s interesting that she doesn’t even address Gary’s abuse. She focuses on picking apart the minutiae instead of listening to her children. She’s in such denial, she’ll never admit the truth.

Please, this story got her so much more attention than the regular shoot would have! She owes that nurse shark a cut of her income. 

JFC. I am not excusing her original conduct, but I give her credit for calling and apologizing. I cannot imagine the guilt she will carry for the rest of her life for exposing her child to that monster. 

My child is the most honest person I know. He’ll tell me who pinched him, who was bad, who threw toys... And when he told me that someone held him down and stomped on him, I knew that this incident was different from the normal rough-and-tumble kid stuff. I brought it up to his school and they verified that the…

What do you think is the right course of action when your family has one of those whisper networks? I have a creep relative who luckily now is facing serious jail time for his conduct, but there were warning signs for years. I was a child at the time so I logically know that it wasn’t my place to do something, but I…

I am so sorry. Parents do the best they can with the tools they have, but they often don’t have the tools to be the parent that their child deserves.

How do we help you and your colleagues? What do citizens need to do to help you get the funding/support/attention to address this?

Wow. This whole article is about listening to children and breaking the abuse cycle. Your comment is a perfect example of the OPPOSITE of that.

One of my great disappointments with the focus on bullying is that every parent is quick to protect their child but very few parents even consider that their child would ever be a bully. It is the same with abuse-- we focus our child-rearing on protecting our child but forget that we also need to teach them boundaries…

Who would you pick to replace Visage?

Melania needs a Fake Melania. 

To the author: Sharing this story will save children from abusive situations and will stop abusers. I am so sorry for the pain you’ve experienced, thank you for pushing through that to help others. 

Because the abuser is great and charming and because we trust adults over kids. Because a single mom is so happy to have found love again that her initial reaction is that her new boyfriend is a monster. Because a child makes an offhanded comment like in this story and isn’t weeping or screaming so the parent…
