ReplyDeleteI support your daughter and I'm sorry you have to fight such arbitrary laws from such a dysfunctional state. I've written about Marissa and I hope more people are exposed to her case. Stay strong!

Also, I found out about this case by reading the lastest issue of Ms. Magazine. I hope this gets publicized in other forms of media.
