I strongly disagree with your statement about "letting it go."

I am a counselor and hear sick shit all day long. I have dealt with situations that are the things of nightmares.

Letting things go is what you have to do. You report the abuse to the authorities and they handle it. It is out of your hands at that point. Letting go means you have done your part and there is nothing more you can do to aid the victim.

I admit it is poor wording on her part and could be taken in the way you presented. The truth is, you tell yourself to let go but you can't. I have years of training and it still ears away at me everytime I report something. You search the papers and internet for arrest records and pray to whatever is out there that the kid or victim gets the help and justice the need.

Letting it go is not saying it is ok or moving on from it, it is accepting you did everything you could and it is not in your control anymore. These are two very different things.

I think you completely misunderstand what is meant here. Please read my comments in this post https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1489919

That makes no sense. Why would you call a hotline when a crime is being commited? I do not call a hotline, I call the police. Who is going to take the man into custody and charge him?

I would have understood the meaning had your other comment been added to the one i replied to. My comment was strictly in regard to this article. I must have missed the other post.

My apologies.
