though it does not make me any less t'eed off. I happen to trust the people we go to dance with, though not so much now of course. You should be able to leave something by accident at a place you go to on a regular basis (3 x a week) and not have someone STEAL it. That is plain wrong. Yes my kid was irresponsible and she knows that and has cried over the loss of her coat and scarf, and understands about consequences, etc, and hopefully she will never do this again. But on the other hand someone's elses kid is not that good obviously since they steal. The whole thing stinks all around and now I have to wait our next class Nov. 7 to see if anyone happens to return it.

I wish it had been drilled into my head
I went to spend the night with a friend (this was about 30 years ago) and I was molested by her father. It took me 2 years to tell my parents. Trust me, I had many talks with my kids when they were younger.
