[QUOTE="CV355, post: 16021454, member: 181885"] Over the last year, I posted a few "I need help" threads in the lounge. Some of the responses were constructive, others weren't. Man I didn't like some of it, but it was all true- mostly perspective. The problems didn't magically go away, but accepting what people were telling me did help. Hearing "you're not in control, you'll never be in control" was an epiphany. Not trying to sound like some shining example here, but if you ask for advice, at least consider it, right? Relating it back to the #Metoo movement, there is a lot of legitimacy. How many cases are caused by wrong place wrong time? Not victim blaming, but don't put yourself in a bad situation. It doesn't absolve the crime by any means. If I had a daughter, and I knew she was trying to sneak off to drinking parties at 15, you bet I'd lock her in a room full of college textbooks and say "enjoy, here's your party." Next, let's talk with some police and EMTs who have seen the effects- nice fun scare tactic. There's a reason I don't drink at all- the first two years of working was primarily around drunks. No. Thank. You. How many of us have fallen into a situation that could have been avoided by better decisions on our part? I've had things stolen from me, and I was partially responsible because I was an idiot and left them in the open. [/QUOTE]
