The big concern for me is that it seems like this kid is being taught — directly or not — that her beauty is the major thing she has to offer the world; a lot of girls are taught this to an extent, but not quite this extent. What if modeling isn't what she wants? Or wouldn't be she wanted if she hadn't started so…

Yep. Violence only as a last resort, and aim to do least harm, but last-resort-low-harm violence is totally acceptable.

It was an early 90s computer game. You could make art and if you wanted to erase the whole thing, you'd click this little dynamite stick and concentric black circles would appear all over the screen. After five seconds they'd disappear, but if you clicked 'freeze' at just the right time, you could create really cool…

More blood and tears. I got sent to the principal and she (thank god) asked me why I didn't use my words. I said, "I did! I said no and he didn't listen!" Then she said "well, then, I guess you did the right thing."

I would be pretty okay with that.

My (younger, boy) cousin and I used to put on dresses and watch the wizard of oz EVERY weekend.

Noooo, no, it was the attempted making out that killed the relationship, and also broke his nose.

No, but now he does have *super* douchey facial hair.

My ex called it "drinking sadness."

I just salivated. Bring some pie please? I can make you mac and cheese. Maybe with bacon and avocado and jalapeño.

I have been asked that before. If my access to sex/cheese won't change from what they are now, I just have to give one up, I'd pick cheese. If giving up cheese guaranteed me consistently great sex on a regular basis and at least a large chuck of that sex-having was with a dude I loved, then...it would be tough, but I…

That stood out to me too, but to be fair, I feel like for a lot of kids "watch me play" is a legit-seeming activity.

God, I started assholes YOUNG. My first 'boyfriend' was this kid named Jeremy, but he ripped up my Dumbo puzzle AND threw my favorite plastic rainbow hearts choker into the poison ivy.

Except I'd want in the robot-battling. None of this watching.

Or she's into her look even if it isn't the most flattering, and that's cool, bc who cares if it's flattering?

Don't you remember Noel??

That's where the high school crush comes in. Alternately, your family could invite the dude you used to bang over for pre-dinner drinks, bc his parents and your parents are best friends. The last time you saw him you were naked in his childhood bedroom. That was also the last time you had remotely decent sex. It…

When my niece was born (my bro is 8 yrs older than me) my kept saying how nice it would be for her to have cousins her age. K mom, should I just go bang the first dude I see in the hospital cafeteria?

Bonus: there was caramel in the coffee.

I had boxed mac and cheese for dinner and just bought an 8pm coffee/ranted to the barista about Ferguson. So...it's a tossup.
