Sadly, with sex crimes in Montgomery County, death is no joke.

That is funny. My mom hilariously would always tell us that lying to her was worse than murder, so I had a real hang up about it. But I had to lie to her to survive, which caused me so much guilt until I realized that some people force you to lie, but you can be the type of person who doesn’t put that kind of pressure…

Add to this that I think that if you know you are/are going to be a shit parent, the kindest thing you can do for your kid is to step aside if there’s someone else who can and wants to do the job better. I think leaving your kid alone if you have issues (especially drug related) can be a real act of love.

THIS. I haven’t spoken to my mother in 8 years and every six months or so, a story drifts back to me about why we don’t speak. And it’s always a lie. My Dad poisoned my mind (nope), Hubs wanted to alienate me from my family so I’d love his more (HAHAHAHAHA), and my personal favorite, she was sick and couldn’t come to…

True!!! No one says EVER flat out that they are a deadbeat parent. It’s ALWAYS tall tales of how/why it’s the other patent’s fault. They “poisoned” the kid’s minds against them or “wouldn’t allow contact”. If I ever met a person that straight up admitted their selfish shortcomings as a shitty parent then I would at…

I was going to say, “It would be like Courtney Love...” and my thought trailed off bc as I just confirmed, her Twitter handle is indeed: Courtney Love Cobain. Dearie me.

Tonight, while hanging out in a pub in New York, listening to an endless stream of Bowie on the jukebox, everyone was swapping stories. One of the bartenders swears this was true and he saw it with his own eyes: He was down in the village and in a novelty store that happened to have in its front window T-shirts…

I’ve seen this behavior in my own life, with my brother’s biological father. He tried to drown my mom when he found out she was pregnant, despite them trying to have a kid. She went into hiding while trying to finalize the divorce. His new wife would always pick up my brother for visitation, never him, and that’s when…
