...I know about the "still 12"
It was 1958 when I was 12. Kinda freezes us in time,does'nt it? It was a pivotal moment when we first realized what was going on. And the whole World cannot be trusted. Not like we used to before "it" began..

Hi Ted "Still 12". I just emailed this to our county newspaper as regards the judge Kline situation (see US News,above). I think you might identify with some of this. Tinfoil)

...it's not about lawyers
There's been lots of publicity surrounding Orange County Superior Court Judge Ronald Kline's arrests for possession of child pornography and child molestation. There's now eleven lawyers running against judge Kline for the March 5 election. Each are voicing their qualifications.
Feels like something's missing in all this hullabaloo. What about the kid's? Let me tell you a story about a little boy I knew once.
He was twelve years old. The year was 1958. He was sexually molested. The boy did'nt tell anyone. Most kids don't. He kept the secret inside,where it festered.
High School was a living Hell for the boy. His grades were mostly D's and F's. He had few friends,no girlfriends. He barely graduated.
By his early 20s he was involved in the drug scene. Ended up in the Orange County Jail so many times he lost count.
The young man never went on to college. Never learned a trade. He got married once. It lasted less than a year.
The decades passed as though a dream. Other people grew up,got married,had children,normal lives. The boy,now a man watched this.
There's plenty of information available nowadays as regards the afteraffects of untreated childhood sexual molestation. It's important to get the abused child into therapy quickly. But that only happens if the kid tells an adult what happened to him or her. You'd be surprised how many kids don't tell.
I should know. That twelve year old boy in 1958 was me. It's not about lawyers. It's about children.
