CNN report on Delaware Doctor arrested for abusing patients

CNN broke a story today about a doctor arrested for abusing 102 girls and a boy on his patient lists. The video report is here and being a new story, we’re not sure how much of it will remain online so catch it quickly.

It’s more shocking that one single disclosure after a decade was the only element granting probable cause to the authorities trying to nail the alleged offender and that there are three more states where he was licensed to practice with the wider list potentially reaching 7000 patients across all four states. The sole miniscule upside was the creation of the child pornography evidence needed to ensure that the pre-verbal toddler victims would be counted without the need for testifying.

  • Mental Health Television Network

    As I read items from my newsreader this weekend, I saw a reference to streaming service Zeam partnering with the Mental Health Television Network. This got my attention because I had no idea that MHTN existed until this weekend, and I feel like I should have.

    It is a full-blown network. You can watch it yourself from their website.

    Sharing – The impact of Facebook and Instagram on teens isn’t so clear

    In the end, here’s the thing. You, and your kids, are not a study. You are all individuals, who may be negatively impacted by social media, or not. You may need to consider not using it, you may need to consider changing up who you’re following to get stuff that is good for your mental health into your feeds, or you may be perfectly fine using it the way you are. It might even be helping you and having a positive impact on your lives.

    Only you can truly judge that. If it’s harming you, I hope you’ll consider making changes. Follow the social media accounts for this blog if you want to start getting more information like this, or just stop using it altogether. If it’s helping you feel supported and less alone in the world, then enjoy that and I hope you’ll continue to share that within your social media circles.

    As I have said many times – do what works for you.
