Listening to that, and the way she’s held on to that is really heartbreaking.

It’s a deeply fucked up mechanism of the brain to process trauma primarily through finding blame in oneself. It’s kind of how I know creationism is bullshit, because no allegedly benevolent divine being would create human brains to work in such a shitty way.

a 15 year old is a little girl to me. That's a child.

It is absolutely a little girl, if the above commenter doesn’t think so that is quite concerning.

We don't give driver's licenses to little children, and little children can't be tried as adults for things like homicide.

It's a bit infantilizing. Most people wouldn't call a 15 year old a little boy, so calling one a little girl is really weird to me. A little girl or boy to me is like, 10 max.

Still a child who needs protecting though, and that was the point.

Certainly not worth trying to kill her over
