    I have 4 children, 3 are daughters. When they’re first born, you worry about things like SIDS, abductions, or illness. As teens, you worry about them driving and making bad decisions. Then they hit 18. They’ve survived, you survived, and you think “I can breath now. We’ve made it.”
    And then, for some asshole who thinks he has a right to end that life and then deny he did it and tell her parents he loved them?
    This one broke my heart.

      Now they'll probably live the rest of their lives in distrust. They had known that boy for years, he had consoled them, he had dated their daughter in high school. Yet, without any good reason, he killed their daughter. I wouldn't trust anyone after that. I'd be angry at myself for not seeing any signs, how gullible I was.

I haven't got the decade wrong even once since I started a few months back, with one exception where I guessed 1969 when it was 1971. Can you guys try this? I don't know my own process, perhaps a combination of lighting, hairstyle, image quality, background, ambience etc.

I hate to compliment him but it's obvious he was also a talented musician.

    2:25 The "lead" role or the _titular_ role? The lead role in Fiddler on the Roof is an aging father named Tevye whose daughters' choices of husbands grow increasingly harder for him to accept one-by-one. He doesn't actually play the fiddle. The fiddler himself is a metaphor that no one sees except Tevye (and the audience). He has no lines. He just plays the fiddle.

    It’s difficult to believe that Dan’s parents didn’t know their son needed help.

    Hi Dr Grande. please do a case on Lou Pearlman. I feel it is a really interesting case and people should know about it. Thank you
