1/ Before I start getting bombarded by feminist groups for promoting Title IX Attorney’s wouldn’t you like to know my views or opinion before you rush to judgment about what I believe? For the conspiracy feminist’s the answer is NO I have never been accused of anything
2/ resembling a Title IX or rape charge. However, through my personal experiences I can identify and understand the pain caused for families and students have surrounding #falseallegations, inherent problems and frustrations working with uncooperative #Education & #HigherEd
3/ officials, the ludicrous Kangaroo disciplinary hearings our youth are put thru, the frustration of trying to explain to someone without lived experience what you or child needs help with or support with that does not exactly match up with what is in the four corners of the
4/ standard of their policies, understand the deep emotional pain someone feels after being put through such a process just to reach a predetermined outcome while having #dueprocess rights, #fundamentalfairness, #justice and the #truth trampled on so the Education officials
5/ are able to impose the original end goal discipline. I also understand the #loneliness, #isolation, #feelingoffailure, #guilt, #hurt, #paranoia, #withdrawal, and other feelings our youth have to deal with when #falselyaccused. Lastly, for the other extreme quite often
6/ tossed around I am not a male Rights extremist having both a daughter and three sons. My wife works for a foundation and our entire family strongly supports there mission of developing strong girls, stronger women. It has also been important to raise my boys into solid young
7/ men understanding that no man has the right to touch or lay a finger on a woman without consent. There was a firm rule from a young age that their sister was never to be touched and if they ever became aware it did happen my expectation was her three brothers banded
8/ together to handle the situation with a crystal clear painful message to that boy and all that knew him what happened to someone who ever touched or hurt their sister. They were all well aware the hell that would have come down on them from me (My wife never agreed with that
9/ strategy, but was a core belief of mine) if they did not protect her. All of my kids were raised with the understanding it is unacceptable for any male to push, hit or hurt a female in anyway or any reason whatsoever. If they ever witnessed that situation or are confided
10/ in by a female it was happening then they needed to step In immediately or get authorities involved. They all fully understand that NO means NO immediately and the importance of respecting that understanding with a BF or GF. All of them were also raised that their decisions
11/ and actions have consequences. To understand what it meant when the hair on the back of their neck went up and to not put themselves in situations where severe problems could arise.Lastly, I am a firm believer that no man, government or law should be able to tell a women
12/ what she can or cannot do with their body. I understand all of that as a parent dealing with the WDMSC on issues like #FAPE, #504, #IEP & #disciplinaryhearings regarding one of my children. Now unfortunately understand it as a victim having experienced myself personally
13/ which still cannot believe was possible. With all of that said I have four wonderful children. Sure they all make mistakes and some dumb decisions, but at their core are incredible young adults. I am very proud to be their father and the relationship we have. Two of the
14/ boys are in college with the other two leaving the nest over the next two years. Twenty years ago I would have thought it would be my daughter I would be worried about going off to College. That is not the case for me anymore. With all the cases I have read and personal
15/ experiences dealing with #HigherEd when I lay awake at night thinking or worrying it is my boys that I am most worried about. Wrong time, Wrong Place, Wrong Emotion, Wrong Motivation even doing NOTHING wrong whatsoever their life can be altered forever with NO ONE believing
16/ a word out of their mouth. IMO #TitleIX cases have to be held to a higher burden of prove and campuses cannot take a pro-accuser approach. Once again ANY man hurts much less Rapes a women disgusts me and has well deserves everything he has coming to him. But this culture Of
17/ young men’s being ruined HAS TO STOP! ✌️#MentalHealth #moms4FAPE #Anxiety#bipolar #endthestigma #dobetter #BeTheChange
