Bullying

Recently, I've read about the artist who painted the portrait of the Duchess of Cambridge.  For whatever reason he and his family are being bullied. Why? For painting a portrait of a person who came and spoke with him? He took some photos of her,they both agreed on the photo that they liked and he painted her portrait from her photo. IMO, it's a great portrait of her. What's wrong with it?

He did his job. No one should have to be bullied for doing their job.

Let's also take into consideration, the fans that like Kristen Stewart . There is absolutely nothing wrong with liking Kristen and wanting to see her have a successful career. However, there is absolutely NO REASON for her fans to bully others. Kristen shows the public what she wants the public to see. It's a shame that she wants the public to see her in her vehicle with a married man and father.

She could set an example and be a great spokesperson for many things seeing as people look up to her.  I see a person who doesn't know herself (she copies others in terms of dress) and clearly cannot handle the pressure that she is under in any type of dignified manner.

She gets called out because she is shoved down the throats of the public and the public knows when they are being played. As a whole, they are tired of her game.  It doesn't make them "wrong" nor does it mean they have to "see the light".

It means that EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion. They formed it based on the information shown to them and what they BELIEVE to be the truth.

All in all, bullying needs to be stopped. Those who do it need to get in touch with themselves and find out why they do it.  Have respect for others differences.  We all might find out we're not different after all.

Seriously?

According to this article, the Duchess of Cambridge was photographed topless.  She and William are "angry" according to the source.  However, I have a problem with people that are in the public eye that still think they have any semblance of privacy.

They don't.  Her privacy as she knew it is gone.  I don't know what they think when they decide to go galvanting around naked.  First, its Harry in Vegas and now her.  I don't think they completely understand that a precedent is set within their family that they must follow.  Although Prince Phillip also showed off his jewels as well.  (He was wearing a kilt) so maybe it runs in the family.

A friend of mine sent me the above article last night.  Its a discussion about a book written by Lenore Skenazy titled Free-Range Children.  I haven't read the book and am only basing my opinion off the article but the author advocates allowing children to have unsupervised play dates alone in parks.  The children do have phones though in case of emergencies.

I can see this issue from both sides.  I understand allowing children to have a sense of freedom within their daily lives but then again kids are not safe nowadays look at the case of Leibby Kletsky http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2011/07/12/search-continues-for-missing-brooklyn-boy-leibby-kletzky/

Where is the happy medium nowadays for our children?
