Just what does she think has likely been happening to the cousin?

People need to protect ALL kids, not just their own.

Exactly Hops. I think what's possibly going on behind the reply is that the agony aunt is covertly saying: "I don't think it's practical to believe the child 100%" - despite what she says about believing the daughter. ?

And all too often, the child-victims are being ignored while the rapes continue.

I feel so VOICELESS today!

I've tried everything I can to COMMUNICATE with Mr. IDIOT regarding the Osteoporosis issue plus other stuff and HE SIMPLY DOES NOT HEAR ME!  I am FINANCIALLY STUCK and have run out of any other possible financial options!  HE JUST DOES NOT GET IT THAT I AM ON A FIXED INCOME THAT IS NOT ENOUGH TO COVER ALL OF MY MEDICAL AND REQUIRED LIVING EXPENSES!!!!!

I'm really sorry, Bones. That kind of worry is really draining.

I wish you could sell magnificent crocheted things that bring you pleasure to make.

I thought all her answers were wishy-washy today.  As for the woman whose make co-workers were hitting on her--How freaking insensitive!  I had that happen when my finance died, and the only thing to say is, "NOT NOW.  NOT EVER!"  They are only using her grief to her advantage, believing she would be an easy target.

Thanks, Erin.

I couldn't help but notice that the advice columnists are often wishy-washy or miss the point.  I frequently find that the comments, below the line from the readers often say more.

Woke up W-A-Y early this morning feeling alone.   It feels like the only time I exist to 3-D people is when they WANT something.  After they achieve their goal, then I become invisible again.

Does that sound familiar?

Spotted this quote on Facebook:

"Oh, I'm sorry.  I forgot.  I only EXIST when YOU NEED something."

Yeah, how about it!  Last stupid argument I had with NM, she wanted to know why we never do anything fun any more.  Because she only calls when she needs something!

SInce I didnt take her shopping yesterday, I have not heard from her...oh well!

Reading your description of the last stupid argument you had with NM sounds similar to the last conversation I had with NDoofus before I went NC...she started whining that I don't call her anymore.   :P
