False accusers start young

Maybe I'm old fashioned. When I was a kid, my father indoctrinated this idea in my head that lying was bad. It had nothing to do with the commandment, though we were regular churchgoers. But whatever I did, whatever mischief I got into as a kid, and it was not insignificant, it was always much MUCH worse if I lied to him about it afterwards.

I got into fights, I stole stuff, I broke into a house once. It was all just kids' stuff, just mischief, unless I tried to lie about it. That was intolerable.

Eventually, I think by age 9 or 10, he convinced me that honesty is a good policy - with him and with everyone. Oh yeah, and breaking into houses is bad, too.

I don't know where other people get their personal standards, but I would suppose that this young person who made false accusations didn't have anyone at home strongly encouraging her to tell the truth, no matter how uncomfortable it is.

Here's to fathers.
Here's to MY father.

She's a kid...too young to understand the consequences of her actions. It's sad that girls so young have already learned to play the (false) rape card, but it speaks more about our society's tolerance of such abuses, than it does of her character (or of her parent's competence).

All this tells me is that it's going to get worse before it can get any better. More innocent men will have to suffer before the mainstream western culture finally acknowledges that guys are being fucked over here. I can only hope that I'm not one of those innocent guys who has to suffer a false accusation before something actually happens.

the girl is an insulin dependent diabetic and she hadn't received her medication for days.

This is important here, actually.
