From the article, THIRTEEN other women had reported the man for stalking as well. And they fined her and accused her of making a false report. And are still working.

@WonderKing82
The problem is that she enjoys sex and they have an open marriage. In the eyes of these guys, any woman who actually likes sex but won't have sex with THEM is a target.
@ask_aubry
Since she went to dinner with BOTH sets of parents, and neither one seemed to have any issue with her outfit, I'm going to speculate that it wasn't as offensive as he claims it was.
@thedailybeast
@TimTeeman
For some reason it still comes as a shock to some people that women don't exist to "look pretty" for men. We don't have to wear make-up, grow our hair long, wear a skirt, smile, etc. just because a guy wants us to.

Right? If I can get a team to knock it out in a few hours all at once, I'm down for it. I can stand anything for a few hours! Pass on the anesthesia.

Not just that, but you literally cannot hide the swelling of a broken nose with makeup. You can reduce the swelling with ice and cover bruises, but it's literally impossible to hide the type of swelling that would be evident 24-48 hours after the break.
@WSJ
They could be faking, but maybe not. Doctors are notorious for ignoring complaints from teen girls - for 4 years I told drs something was wrong with my teen. Once they tested, I was right. TikTok vids can give teens w/similar complaints a starting point with their dr.
@shesbonky
I'd start with teaching my daughter the following phrases: "Thank you for your concern, but that's not something I want to talk about" and "If you'd rather preach then play that's fine, but I'll see you tomorrow" and walk away. Neighbor kid should figure it out pretty fast.

Spoken like someone who doesn't understand how the courts work. They have a set formula that they use based on each person's income. It's not the judges opinion that sets the amount, but that formula that's the same for everyone equally.
@meghanttucker
I'd start off asking them if this meeting is to address <boys name> and his relentless bullying of my child. Throw them off from the start - they don't know the full story of what's going on and change their perspective immediately.
@taylorsschumann
Also, get any witness information if possible! A lady backed into my in a parking lot and later told her insurance that I hit her (with the SIDE of my car no less ๐). At the scene a woman gave me her number and said she had a feeling I'd need it. Boy was she right!!
@CatieOsaurus
Honestly just having that one person question your decision could have made the difference between maintaining sobriety and backsliding to someone who was an alcoholic struggling in that moment.

The funny part is that they'll celebrate all the babies being born now, but in less than 3 years will be screaming about how much poor single mom's are costing them.
@MegStEsprit
My kids are 19, 20 and 21. 2 weeks ago my youngest asked if it was too late to add to their Christmas list. YES! Yes it IS too late!! NINETEEN and still trying to do that to me!! It wasn't cute at age 4 either!

Theoretically, every time you do this, it damages the root to where it will start growing back thinner and thinner until it kill the hair root and no longer grows. That's why old women who plucked their eyebrows all their life have "naturally" thin ones.
@TizzyEnt
I really hate to say this, but coming from a family of teachers and administrators this is what you have to do.
1. Report issue to school. If not resolved CORRECTLY
2. Threaten legal action WHILE
3. Filing a police report.
Sadly, that IS what it takes in many instances.

Requesting no anesthetic, while masochistic in my mind, is different than refusing to provide it. I've yet to have ANY dental work that wasn't painful, even with pain meds.
@darafaye
@PlvwISD
What makes it so much worse to me is that while they "investigated" the refused to notify the family and kept the little girl sitting at the same table with all of her abusers until she told her parents a week later! There is literally no excuse for that.
@prntgdcolonized
As soon as I heard Michelle bragging that the whole family could go out to eat and she and Jim Bob could sit at a separate table and dine undisturbed, I knew there was something majorly wrong with how that family ran.
@SFGate
For a family of 5 (2 rooms) with the stated prices, to attend for 5 days would cost $5000 for daily park passes and $8000 for hotel rooms - not including food, travel expenses, etc. Just priced it online - I can book a 2 week trip for 5 to Ireland w/airfare + hotel for less!
@DozonLife
@49ersBBQLover
No they didn't. ROFL They totally owned him then showed how to apologize with class - which is another way of completely calling him out. ๐ This is such a KC thing!
@ask_aubry
Dad "babysits" his own children, while mom's expected to watch the kids. Dad is applauded for "helping out" around the house, while mom is expected to "keep a clean house". It never ends.

@JoshuaPHilll
Knew a guy who was a freelancer and built a website for a company. He was still owed half the payment and they tried to stiff him. He told them he wouldn't give them the code to disable the auto-delete on the files. Had the check by the end of the day. There was no such feature.
@ask_aubry
He doesn't believe her. He accuses her of cheating. He wants her to get rid of a favorite piece of her own clothing to satisfy his insecurity. Hmmm.
@ask_aubry
She needs to make 2 appointments. 1st with a doctor to be diagnosed with depression and put on appropriate treatments, and 2nd with a divorce lawyer to help her lose some of that unwanted dead weight.
@WingsScotland
@HannahM_Writes
If he had simply said something like "Hey, wife and I opened our marriage. I was wondering if you'd like to get a drink sometime", the most he'd have gotten from HR was a warning and slap on the wrist. Getting fired tells you it went WAY beyond that.
@QuinnTelsa
@NickMeansWell
But nothing about telling the men to keep it zipped? Yep, this isn't about abortion. It's about punishing women for daring to have sex.
@RollingStone
Hmm. The data was legally available to anyone who purchased it. Calling it "blackmail" sounds like he's doing something illegal - and it's on the sketchy side of things, but I can't see anything illegal about it. Good play.

@LorainPD
Ok now let me see if I have this right. The teens were NOT questioned, taken in or charged with any crime, but the mother was given a ticket for obstructing justice for a crime that apparently never happened? Tell me that's not retaliatory.
@kadraa76
@ABC
I noticed that too - she wasn't just a teacher at that moment, she was taking care of one of "her kids". I can only wish ALL teachers would be that concerned (and I know that many if not most would be).
@notcapnamerica
People get offended by this, yet when I took my kids to Disney over Halloween, my then 4 yr old daughter chose to dress up as Superman instead of a princess, and requested a sword instead of wand at Cinderella's Castle - and not one adult batted an eye over it. Hypocrisy much?
@DoomScroling
For those who argue that every abortion ban has exceptions for the life of the mother, I want you to read this and think hard about how you justify this as acceptable.
@Brewdog85
@WSJ
It's not funny - not at all. But what's also not funny is the prevalence of teen girls being accused of stirring up drama and dismissed when they genuinely have an issue. We don't know how many are faking and how many are trying to open a legit discussion with their dr.
@robertmblakejr1

You understand that "therapy" can refer to any type of therapy - speech, physical, etc.? Of course you do, but that wouldn't fit your narrative.

A man can call up, make and appointment and walk in to get sterilized at age 18 without any hoops to jump through or problem. Women deserve the same courtesy in respect to their body.

Everyone here complaining about historical inaccuracy in a fictional show are making her point - no one ever complained about Dune or Ever After or Robinhood being "historically inaccurate".
@andressaholiday
I guess you missed where Ambers team objected so many times during Johnny's testimony that it became a joke both during the trial an on the internet? Depps team allowed Amber to testify relatively uninterrupted, even when they could have objected.
@Urtoez75_2
That's what so many people don't understand - no one LIKES the idea of abortion. In a perfect world, it would never be needed or wanted. Pro-choice people simply recognize that sometimes it's the best or only option and that we can't judge every other persons situation.
@Imposter_Edits
This is my car. Here is my business logo. Here is my using MY keys to open the trunk and pull out MY license. What the hell else did they need?? The cops are the ones who escalated this, not the man.
@notcapnamerica
Blue Ivy is an 11 year old child, who's literally performing on stage in front of thousands of people. I don't know many adults who wouldn't be nervous about that. This woman needs to back off attacking a kid. (And she thinks only Black girls that live in the ghetto can dance?)

Took FOUR years fighting to get dr's to move beyond the diagnosis of Depression for my youngest. Her dr. begrudgingly offered to do bloodwork to shut me up. Kid was at a specialist within a week - Juvenile Arthritis & Fibromyalgia. She missed her entire high school years.

@sfchronicle
So your argument is that it's better to charge them and have them end up in jail rather than get help with their addiction? Yeah, that sums up everything wrong with our current justice system.
@BookSpotlight
If this were actually for a "surprise gift", once outed he'd have invited her to come to the store while they were appraised and pick them back up or arrange time to bring them in later (thus returning them that day either way). Jay is a thief and a liar and she owes him nothing.
@ask_aubry
21 years here, still having fun. Maybe he should look at other reasons - generally women are less interested if they're under a lot of stress or don't feel appreciated or attractive. He wants her to care for his needs, but is he taking care of hers?

@JoshyBeSloshy
My youngest fell in the school bathroom. The office sent her back to class and didn't call me. Her friend was able to text me and tell me to come get her. She had a severe concussion and TBI that she never fully recovered from. I no longer trust schools to call when needed.
@realgirl_fieri
I had a c-section with my son. On my last night in the hospital, the nurse from the nursery came in an pleaded with me to let her take the baby for the night. He was formula fed, and she wanted me to have a good night's sleep before leaving. Convinced she was a Saint.
@SenRonJohnson
Hunter is neither running for President nor has any involvement in his father's politics. He's also well past the age of majority and Joe isn't responsible for him. Let's start with a full investigation of Trump's kids first since the are an active part of Trumps presidency.
@MattWalshBlog
That's...not even close to truth. You have kids and don't know this? With my 2nd child, the only person who could comfort her was her dad for the first year. Pete has TWO babies that need to be fed and changed, etc. at night.
@ShiroSpirit
I never really restricted my kids access. Instead, we had long discussions about online safety and how to keep themselves safe, as well as dangers they could face online. My youngest is 19 and we never had issues with any of them. She's teaching her kid to be sneaky.
@stephengarfiel6
@mySA
This is an incredibly sensitive response. How would you feel as a 10 yr old kid to return to the place where you covered yourself in a dead classmates blood to stay alive? The ghosts of that day will haunt that school forever - whether real or in the shadows of people's memory.
@DoDiDA_1
@Telegraph
ROFL My husband isn't a fan of rodents. I was telling him about this and his response was "yeah, if I was buried under rubble and the first thing I see is a rat - and it starts talking to me? I'd probably literally die on the spot. After I pissed myself!"
@Miketop1
@NoCapFights
There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to split the bill, however, if the man asks the woman out and this isn't discussed until the end of the date when it's time to pay, then this response is appropriate.
@ask_aubry
Twisted my foot and ended up with nerve damage. It was the most EXCRUCIATING thing I've ever experienced. Lost my business and 9 mths of my life before resolved. Dr. refused to give pain meds. Husband slipped on the ice, nothing broken, a bit banged up. Prescribed hydrocodone.๐

That's not a caretaker - as far as she was concerned, that was her family (just like a dog considers its owners to be family). Sad that she's gone, but glad she was able to die in the arms of someone she loved. Peace be the journey, Ndakasi.

If it had just been that comment I'd completely agree, but there has been contention with Chris Rock mocking Jada for years. Will should not have hit Rock, but it's like the bully that keeps pushing buttons until the person explodes - and the bully walks away looking great.

My mom called and I started to read this to her. I barely got the 1st sentence out and she shouted YES! ๐ Topic change to romantasy and reverse harem novels, and I said at 55 and fat, it wasn't like I was getting a bunch of guys. "how many houses do you have to give away?" Dead.
@Rimer_Chris

No, they aren't. At the time the law went into effect there was literally no protection - verbal or otherwise, that stated an abortion for a life threatening condition wouldn't be prosecuted. Nothing. They had families and other patients to care for as well.

I think the best idea is his asking patients what they want rather than assuming he knows. If he's listening to what they want before he even designs his office, chances are he'll listen when they come to him with concerns.

Actually that is not true. Men have mammary glands and all the equipment necessary to breastfeed, but they lack the prolactin levels to stimulate milk production. Is basic biology no longer taught in our schools??

Periodically I read these to my husband. I just read him this one and he was so enraged by the uncle that he was speechless before saying "wood chipper". Alena needs to cut everyone off, grab her kid and move away from these people and never look back. This is not ok.

Why do these idiots think that the hourly staff sets city or restaurant policy? The NYC vax rule has been highly publicized - why go there if you're not in compliance? I hope they're charged with anything they can throw at them. You don't treat people that way.
@sfchronicle
That's a parent fail. My youngest wanted to go by "they/them" and simply asked us to try to remember. There was no hesitation in telling us because they aren't afraid of us and know that we will accept and love them no matter what. This mom failed her kid not the school.
@thetimes
No, man, we're not the same. I don't view children as chattel and something to be sold or bargained with. His rent outstrips his wages? I'd live in a f-ing tent before I SOLD my child! I can't even begin to relate to this.
