I strongly disagree when children are at risk.

I don't know... it really seems to run counter to the spirit of trying to get better.

I ran a check and I see that the US has not extended the status of privileged communication to include communications between AA members, but I could see there being something very different about protecting communications with your sponsor.

She will get her kids back. she just has to prove she can stay clean and take a few parenting classes. the kids needed to be removed for their safety until she proves this is no longer a treat to happen again.

Oh. Well, if you strenuously object then I should take some time to reconsider.

I'm glad I'm not a parent. Throw one sex and drugs party where you get wasted and then get raped and you get your kids taken away.

I love the idea of a "Parenting Class" educating someone that they should not be doing the acts described in the article. Like without that education, she would not be aware it is inappropriate to get young people drunk and high in your home, then dildo yourself in front of them.

That's just the thing. You might know that something is inappropriate, but you might not care unless you understand the consequences and why it is inappropriate.

Alternatively, You might know that something is inappropriate, but you might not care unless you understand the consequences and why it is inappropriate.

There's a reason that you don't just teach rules to people if you expect them to be followed, you have to also justify them.

Apparently the use of italics goes a long way in explaining such matters as well.

when training telemarketers many years a go, i used to do a meeting about emphasizing certain words to make a sentence mean different things.

take this sentence for example: I did not say i beat my wife.


I did not say i beat my wife. (i didnt say, he did)
I did not say i beat my wife. (i didnt say it, i wrote it down)
I did not say i beat my wife. (i didnt beat her, i just pushed her)
I did not say i beat my wife. (it wasnt my wife, it was my friends wife)
I did not say i beat my wife. (it wasnt my wife, it was my girlfriend)
