Catfish and Sociopaths
Catfish (According to Urbandictionary.com): A catfish is someone who assumes a false identity on the Internet using various platforms including but not limited to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Read MoreThe Frog Is Still A Frog – Even After The Kiss
Back in the early 1980’s when I was more of a Cappuccino Princess than a Cappuccino Queen, I remember watching fairy tales on VHS tapes (yes, I am that old). My parents would bring home a new fairy tale on what seemed like a weekly basis. I would watch stories about pretty Princess’ turning frogs…

Let me start out by saying that I am by no means a forensic psychologist with a degree and years of clinical experience with psychopathy. I am, however, a woman who ran into a really bad dude. I would be remiss if I didn’t admit that during the year I spent with Luc I did…
Read MoreUnrealistic Expectations
I couldn’t stop shaking. I knew that every word coming out of my mouth would likely not make any sense. This was the last time I would testify in an attempt to save my son’s life. As I walked to the stand, I felt as if my legs would buckle beneath me. Judge Algeo watched…

“True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice.” – Martin Luther King Jr. Over the past two years, there have been many moments in which I have been ashamed of my country. I grew up believing that if I was an honest person, who worked hard to positively…

I wanted to share some of the experiences of these strong women with…
Read MoreThe woman my son can be proud of
Tonight I sat and stared at the Christmas tree my parents put up this year. My eyes quickly focused in on a small ornament I had bought a little over a year ago today. I remember like it were yesterday when I had brought Prince into this small mom and pop Christmas store in search…
Read MoreHold Fast
In the past few weeks, I have received many more emails from women (no men yet) who are facing what seems like impossible situations with the father of their child/children. Given what has happened to Prince, it has been hard for me to find the words to advise others who find themselves in similarly horrifying…
Read MoreSurrounded by people – but still alone
It’s Christmas Eve tonight. One year ago, this very moment, I was tucking my son into bed and preparing to wrap his presents for his first Christmas. Looking back, I am glad that I was unaware of how bad things would get. I was able to celebrate my son’s first Christmas like he would have…
Read MoreThe Lost Child Club
This post is dedicated to the parents who lost their babies in Newtown, Connecticut today. 18 babies died in their classroom at Sandy Hook Elementary School when a gunman deliberately came into their classroom and murdered these innocent children. Rest in peace baby boys and baby girls. My Prince is waiting for you in heaven…
