OT: Documentaries


If you have Netflix please watch the documentary Audrie & Daisy. If you have teenagers, have them watch it too, both boys and girls. This happened to me at a party one night when I was 17, I was just lucky enough that there was no social media or smart phones at the time.

I watched this the other day. Sad and scary. And that sheriff - wtf?! "As far as I can tell the boys are the only ones that have decided to move on with their lives". Yeah, it's probably a lot easier to just "move on" when you aren't the victim!

Just took the time to watch it, very powerful. I'm sorry for what happened to you. I hope that documentaries such as this will really get teenagers thinking about how they want to behave and be remembered before such awful events occur.

The only thing constant in life is change

baylieismine04, so right, that is why I included boys watching it. I am a mother to a son that just turned 13. I raised him to respect women and know the consequences of his decisions, and this film really helped bring that home. I don't ever want him drinking underage, but it happens. I have never shared my story with him, and this documentary helped so I did not have to.

A co-worker of mine watched it the other night and she said she was still thinking about it the next day. She was really disturbed by what happened to the girls and how the people in town, particularly the mayor, reacted to it.
