What do you honestly think would happen if the help community actually met in person?

Lol... same here. But in a responsible way. And since I do it so rarely, 1 1/2 glasses of wine will have me snockered.

Will 2017 be remembered for the empowered women coming out of the shadows of abuse?

I have sons, too. And I honestly do feel as if I have to be direct and shocking to get the point across that their lives could VERY EASILY be ruined.
However, i have encountered sexual ABUSE many times from a very early age (7). And that doesn't include the verbal abuse and/or harassment that has also happened often.
My daughter, in 3rd grade, had her pants pulled down on the playground by a boy who "liked" her. Soon after that, all my kids were homeschooled. Even so, I found out that my 16 and 12 year old sons.... along with my daughter who was 14 at the time... were at the park right out our backyard and a boy there (who all my kids knew) walked up to my daughter, touched her face, looked at her *****, made gyrating motions, and said to her, "how would you like me to r.a.p.e you?" My daughter slapped him in the face and came home crying. She wouldn't tell me why (which breaks my heart) and a little later, my boys told me about it.

I think our media, music, entertainers and athletes often glorify violence. We all buy into it. Until we stop supporting them, it will continue.

I better have a glass of wine that night, to be able to deal with the craziness that they create!

Or, I'd try to combat my nerves by getting seriously drunk, which would result in me talking far too much and bursting into tears of "I love you, why won't you love me?!?"

And then I'd be reminded of why I shouldn't drink in front of anyone except for my parents, and my dog.

You drink in front of your parents...? Like why!? I think I can speak for most of the drinkers here - we drink to forget our parents for like 2,3 hours.

I don't! But still- would NOT drink in front of my parents... That gets awkward. ๐Ÿ˜„

I hardly ever drink.... a couple times a YEAR, I will have a glass of wine.
I have never drank alcohol in front of me teetotaler parents/grandparents.
I'm married w/4 kids and my parents are joining us for part of a vaca....one night, we were going to eat at a fancy restaurant and I was going to have a glass of wine. I told my mom this. She shrugged and didn't say anything. Guess I will gauge the mood at the time ๐Ÿ˜‚

Happy Thanksgiving, Aeolean!
I hope you can indulge without the consequences of heartburn. (I say that as we are all getting older ๐Ÿ˜Ž)

Do you ever eat so much on particular days that even your FACE feels like it got fat?

Saw the funniest interaction between my kids today: 16 yo son was laying on the floor, arms behind head, in a tank top, with earphones on.

It was pretty funny. It's those little moments that happen every day that make life great for me....
