Yeah, no. I'm over it. My life has pretty much been hell since I shared the story here. I don't know why the women here care so much about someone they don't even know. I asked people to stop and leave it alone and no one did. I'm glad you care more about random no one in cyberspace than you do about one of your own.
You wanted us to care about it, just in the opposite way. Then we would have still been caring about internet nobodies. Otherwise, you would not have posted it here.
Look, I would probably feel the same regret you do about sharing this and I am sorry if there were any negative repercussions you've dealt with since posting this. But we have shown ourselves to care about a lot of things.
ETA: Whoops, she deactivated while I was writing my post.
You guys, I know sunflower irl. She's not involved other than she's in a community of other mommy bloggers.
She's not going to start sitting in your driveway is she?
For for those who don't know, that's me making fun of myself for really believing someone on her stalked someone by sitting in someone's driveway during the epic ML thread last week.
I probably should have paid more attention to the original thread. I got the gist of it but then it went over my head and I got distracted and was all "ZOMG only 90 days until Sharknado 2!"

As for the article, I don't know what I was expecting but probably not that. It did seem more sympathetic to the "bullied" girls than I hoped it would. BUT, some of the things in the article will hopefully make a lot of readers skeptical (like one of the girls being logged into Danielle's account).
Those security costs are insane. What a colossal waste of money though the mother will never believe it was.
Finally, I am going to have nightmares tonight after seeing that photo.
GBCN's hottest new thread is "GLORIOUS". It has it all: fucked up clown 12 year olds, GBCNGBCN, cyber-bully-bullies (the thing of when you get bullied for claiming bullying).
It's total bullshit that no one would've heard about if not for Sunflower bringing it here. The bullshit story was being reposted by mommy bloggers everywhere. I saw it first when it popped up on my Facebook.
I also saw it on GOMI, but it didn't generate much interest there. The moms or one if their supporters took it to Reddit, and there were two separate news stories on it.
Tell ML they're not doing drama right. Three pages and we have a GBCGBCN.
Even better, a double one--she GBCGBCNed during the first epic thread about it, if I recall correctly.
I did think the article leaned heavily toward the "bullied" girls, but they have to be very careful not to accuse them and be at risk for a libel suit.
Clowns don't even freak me out generally but that clown was terrifying.
All clowns are godless killing machines. YWIA

Some of my closest family members have been clowns at one time or another (including myself on one occasion). As far as I know, none of us have killed.

You guys, Christine has missed out on cruises!! Networking trips!! Shilling for Walmart!! AND she had to send her precious to CA to live with her sister. Think of the sacrifices!!
Sunflower, I don't know if you're still reading, but I hope you are.
if I remember correctly, you're struggling right now with depression. Man, I know how depression clouds everything...makes things that are bad feel even worse, and takes the joy out of the things that should make you happy. Without depression, you might be pissed at our reactions here. With depression, it probably feels like flat out betrayal. I know you said there are a lot of obstacles to you getting the support you need. I hope you're able to navigate them to get the help you need. I am in no way being sarcastic. My depression fight knocked me to my knees, and I hate to see anyone else struggling. This post is truly one of good will. If you ever need someone to talk to, you can always PM me. Take care.
