How do you function in day-to-day life given your extreme state of fear and anxiety? You need a therapist, not an arsenal. |
DP here. Doesn't matter. Happens in langley, too. |
+1 True that. |
DP. Lol no. Try again. "Extreme state of fear an anxiety"? No really, lol. |
Sure looks/sounds that way! |
Where is the help? Seriously. Everyone keeps saying, get the kid help. The help is on a 6 month waiting list. The kid, most likely, did not show signs of needing to be admitted to a hospital for immediate treatment. Weekly therapy is $200 a week plus - for a middle class family, that is the difference between affording their mortgage or therapy. Therapy covered by insurance is near impossible to come by. The process is slow and finding a good therapist on the first go around, is also close to impossible. I am not implying that we shouldn't try but if you have not been in the situation to try to get your child help in the last year, you should not be screaming that. There.is.not.help. |
And the Republicans are not interested in solving any of them. |
This is the absolute truth. It is a huge, huge problem. |
There sure is. This is how we found it. See: "get help": https://www.psychologytoday.com/us |
| I have a hard time going from “He told the counselors that he had been at a shooting range and shooting sports are a family hobby” to “The school had no way of knowing he may have access to a gun.” |

Why are you “no nanny state!” People blaming the school??
Pick a lane. |
| School didn't raise him or buy that gun but I believe that the school should be held accountable for it as well. Children in better managed school districts have been sent home, arrested, and suspended, for much much less than what happened on the Monday and Tuesday before the shooting occurred. |
