<YES, JESUS CHRIST, YES! Walk away from the ACTUAL CHILD PREDATORS! What the fuck is wrong with you?>

The fact that many people confuse "stopping this behavior now will cost me what I have now" with "stopping this behavior now is impossible" is terrifying. Like, yes, stopping this gross rollercoaster will indeed stop the gravy train...but guess what?

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN THAT MONEY THAT WAY IN THE FIRST PLACE. Cross your fingers, hope you haven't messed up your daughter permanently already and that the gross men looking at them will move on, and retreat into fucking obscurity!

Despite what a great many people believe, there are indeed far, far worse things in this world than being obscure.
