@Leo Gura agreed.

@AerisVahnEphelia @Leo Gurawas charmed by him… easily done.

true … she’s gonna have a hard time explaining to their girls why daddy’s been accused of so many bad things - they’re already 9 and 11. Not that much younger than the 16 year old. And their little son has DiGeorge syndrome. I think they just have to get on with things…. Perhaps the Christian thing is helping them to stay focussed.

@Leo Gura You mean because she loves him and he’s the father of their kids etc? I met him & the whole family once as they were staying in the same campsite as mine. He came across as so lovely and chill - not who you see at all on the screens. Crazy to think how far things have spun since then.

I mean she might have to if he goes to jail… she’s not gonna carry on the podcast on her own. She’s already super awkward x

His wife doesn’t seem on board at all… 😂 Poor woman. His youngest child was born with a rare syndrome so requires a lot of specialised care as well. They found out around the same time as the allegations.

And is it targeted at middle class, British , biracial (black/white) people? Eg. Are my kids safe to travel to America 🇺🇸? is this something that is currently being hyped up and will die down or is it going to create racial war ?! I just can’t believe we are actually complaining and fear mongering about something I just see as healthy evolution… And of course, I’m afraid where we are headed both in uk and America.

I know some of what he says is very ‘rage baity ’ but his actual principles of living very true to Tony Robbins, particularly about health masculinity…. How do we know that sex traffic / rapes happened when a lot of women have now admitted being paid to report that by US government?

@Leo Gura have you read his book ? How do you know about his past?

Secondary school choices - what would you do?! My daughter is ten years old. She’s very sensitive, she likes to feel nurtured and supported. She is also very bright, sociable and creative. She can be shy in large groups, and she also can struggle and get overwhelmed with school work / reading. I would say she is not ‘academic’ but she does well enough, she could do a lot better if she pushed herself and realized how capable she is. We have choice of following secondarys: Choice 1: very small state school (700 in total), most of her friends are going, very heart Centred however known to be underfunded, under resourced, disorganized and never pick up phone. Ofsted rating good and they do well enough in league tables. NO 6th form. They do have some nice club, it appears very friendly, although a little rough round the edges. Has a charming feel to it, and feels like a school! Choice 2: very large state school, rated one of the top 5 schools in county alongside 4 grammar schools. 2300 kids. Exceptional teaching, facilities and buildings. (Only built a few years ago so very modern, spacious and swish) academic so push children but also lots of clubs and societies. Ofsted rating outstanding. Downsides are that there doesn’t seem to be much in places in terms of smaller communities and nurture. No quiet room they can go to when things get too much etc… unless you’re in a ‘club’ that is. Has a very cold and clinical feel about it! More like giant offices than a school! I’ve looked round both, my daughter changes her mind constantly and doesn’t have a preference. She changed every day and feels it’s too hard a choice. She likes the idea of a fresh start and exciting new school but worried about size and missing her friends. The small school is also very tired looking, shabby etc. Ultimately I want her to do well academically but most importantly want her to be happy. I’ve asked other parents who all have mixed experiences with both, but the bigger school Is the most recommended. I feel like perhaps she’d be more suited to smaller school but at same time I don’t want to hold her back when the big school could be a chance for her to grow and shine .✨ Any advice / experiences / opinions most welcome!! Thanks OP

@Bobby_2021 Why is that? I have a ten year old girl and due a baby boy in 2 months! xx

are you male or female?

Just curious, baring in my gender differences that are so often discussed in here.

I just wanted to thank everyone for their input a few months ago! As it happened, I got pregnant very quickly… just one try 😅 this little soul was definitely waiting in line…. We’re due a little boy in early June. It’s been quite a transitional but we’re all delighted, especially big sister to be!!!
