We just want to wish it away, or wish it hadn't happened. That is why I am thankful there are women like my daughter standing up and being brave.Breathing Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02482981001235740285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717394370495529257.post-68102101923755235342014-09-30T08:53:27.224-07:002014-09-30T08:53:27.224-07:00The feelings when that sort of thing happens are s...The feelings when that sort of thing happens are so complicated. <br /><br />I remember walking along a beach when a man approached my sister and me and asked if we wanted to see his "sand worm" and then started unzipping his pants. I went back and told my dad, who called the police, who then came to get a statement from us. All I was thinking was "Dear God, if they catch this guy, I'll have to point him out in court. Please don't let them catch him."<br /><br />Thank you for sharing, and thanks to your daughter for standing up.Midlife Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834025616937197096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717394370495529257.post-43828083543949152392014-09-27T16:07:02.115-07:002014-09-27T16:07:02.115-07:00Thank you Sarah.

Not 'easier' because we don't believe it's wrong, but because we're so afraid that others will think we are to blame. I hope your daughter's campaign brings out many voices, but also just as many listeners and by-standers who will also speak up instead of watching or ignoring. We all need to be brave!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02566841917930036143noreply@blogger.com
