Lately the news has been unbearable.
Woman after woman. Story after story. Gone. Not by accident, but by someone's choice.
It is devastating. There is no other word for it.
We have been watching the headlines and our hearts are heavy.
So many women have lost their lives at the hands of their partners in recent weeks. Each one was full life. Each one loved. Each one irreplaceable.

Stand Up Survivor wants them all to know, even now, that they were seen, they mattered, and they will not be forgotten.

We see you. All of you. 💜

Louisiana allows surgical castration for convicted child ab*sers in controversial first law ⚖️🚨

Louisiana has passed a law allowing judges to order surgical castration for certain individuals convicted of serious crimes involving children under 13. The measure applies only in specific cases, alongside prison sentences, and requires medical approval before the procedure can be carried out.

Supporters argue the law is designed to prevent repeat offenses and provide stronger protection for children. They say it adds a stricter deterrent in cases involving severe harm. However, critics raise concerns about ethics and constitutionality, questioning whether such punishment could be considered cruel and unusual.

The law has sparked intense national debate, as no other U.S. state currently permits surgical castration as part of sentencing. While chemical castration is allowed in some states, this step marks a significant and controversial shift in how justice systems approach serious child-related crimes.

Posting pictures of your children online may seem harmless, but research shows it can have long-lasting consequences. By age 13, the average child has more than 1,300 photos of themselves shared on the internet, almost none with their consent.

The risks are far broader than the typical “stranger danger” warnings. These photos can be used in ways parents never intended, from digital profiling and social media tracking to potential exposure in data breaches or targeted advertising. Once an image is online, it can be nearly impossible to remove, creating a permanent digital footprint for your child.

Experts recommend thinking carefully before sharing images, adjusting privacy settings, and limiting the number of personal photos posted. Encouraging children to participate in decisions about what is shared helps teach digital responsibility and respect for their own online presence. Parents can also monitor online activity and use secure platforms that prioritize privacy to protect their child’s identity.

Being mindful of online sharing practices is crucial for protecting children’s safety, privacy, and future digital identity. Understanding the potential impact of posting photos early can help families make smarter choices and avoid unintended consequences in an increasingly connected world.
