One way or the other it’s about authoritarianism, about protecting abusers at the expense of their victims. Hard to be part of the system unless one “complies”. Bruce Levine wrote well about how liberalism and conservatism are two sides of “the same oppressive coin”, that it probably takes being marginalized before most people are able to even see that. Still, anyone who would even weakly genuinely stand up for the rights of children (especially) is part of the solution. The Powerpoint presentations at Ann Jennings’ site (she’s mentioned above) I think show her commitment and clear eye but there’s definitely a damned long way to go. Nobody arrives anywhere until we figure out how to convince morons on all sides to leave kids alone, undamaged and once and for all quit trying to make them into them. Because them is authoritarian, is crazy, and just sucks.

Comment on A need for attention is something by staceyface

i would like some attention. please come look at my blog and comment.

i really liked this article. I found it by googling “why do i need attention?”

i felt bad that i wanted attention. i felt like there was something wrong with me. i have this idea that if i was “whole” I wouldn’t need attention.

but i think maybe only if i was dead i would not need attention. but i am very much alive.

thank you.
