Dr. Phil: I strongly suspect the posts that were referred to as McCarthy like by me were deleted before you read them. In Translation's thread someone said that they "had taken care of" Wary's daughter. They had reported her to the authorities at UT. Initially they said they had "insider" information (none written) about a girl who was going through recruitment. Who? What? No information provided, but the girl was identifiable, charged with "something" and left out to hang in the wind. I claim the first reference to Senator Joe. I own it.

I saw a few other posts, but missed others (where someone created a new account with the daughter's actual name) where people told the world what this girl was wearing on a day, and the obvious message was: Look out. We are watching you.

Did the mother make mistakes? Yes. Did she stop? No. Did adults, and I use the term loosely, go after someone's kid for shits/giggles/revenge? Yes. And to those adults I can truly say that your behavior is disgusting.

Most of the posters/members on this board have good information. The responders to this thread are among the best sources of information. And yes, there are people who ask the same questions ad infinitum. And just like when small children ask, "Why?" thirty times in a minute some of us get inpatient. (Oh heck, all parents get impatient with the whys.) But this was different and it was creepy and it was wrong. Whoever the creepers were they were THERE (how else would they know what the girl was wearing?) and they (or there was one.....I truly don't know) were out to bury this child. And yes, she is someone's child.

There have been times that someone has discussed something (not necessarily) Greek related and was responded to in a way that the OP didn't want to hear because they "knew" better. After a few tries of information by others which was ignored, the OP went on her merry way...no harm no foul. I know that most of the posters on this thread give great information, they have said the same things so many times they probably should just bring out the menu and said......go to column c.

But again, the person or person(s) who went after this girl because they didn't like what the mother had to say (this is an old fashioned concept and not in vogue anymore): Shame on you.

In a perfect world the creepers would come out a own what they did. She/he/they might even try to right things.

.......but then again I try to live in the world of unicorns, rainbows and ethics.
