It’s that time of the month. The choices in her closet are now very few. "Black, black, black’ something black. It hides all." She whispers to herself. She calls her girlfriend on the telephone, "I gotta get my Salsa Fix tonight, like for hours’ then, I’m not eating ANYTHING afterward. Going to bed hungry! I gotta ...

    "Dear Edie,
    I know a ballroom instructor who had used his position to obtain sex with young girls as young as 17 and 18 and have girls undress for him in the dance studio.
    How do you stop this?" - Appalled


    Dear Appalled,

    You call the police. It is NOT up to you to stop him.
    Let the POLICE conduct a full investigation. NOT YOU.

    Tell the owner / his boss, AFTER you have done the above. If the owner does not fire him on the spot, leave the studio, then, post all over social media why you left.

    You will NEVER be able to stop this behavior. PEOPLE DO NOT CHANGE. His pathetic behavior will continue, and continue, and continue no matter what studio he goes to. He has a porn sickness that can NEVER be healed. He needs to be put into prison where he can act out whatever he needs to act out with all his new dancer friends in prison.

    He is a DANGER to society.

    If you do not call the police, he will continue his behavior and eventually, a young innocent dancer will end up in a body bag.

    Mark my words.

    You read so many articles/blogs out there that are full of motivational wording and phrases, but If
    you’re like me when I was hit by a car a couple of years back, you’re depressed, anxious, tired, frustrated, and ready to give up. It’s easy to say ‘get out there,’ ‘spruce up your resume,’ and ‘don’t give up,’ but how exactly do you do that when your entire life has fallen apart? When your chosen career is no longer an option? Let’s be real here, it’s very different for people who have
