[@RoseCheshire]

There was a man at my church I went to when I was in middle school. He was very overly affectionate. Always caressing my arm, my shoulder, my back. And I would always move away from him. I told my stepmom how uncomfortable he made me feel and she said that he was harmless and that he was in love with her during high school and on and on about her. One day he went up to shake my hand and I refused. He forcibly grabbed my hand and pulled me close and said “good little girls don’t tell men no”. It scared the absolute shit out of me. I told my dad, crying, that I was afraid of him. My dad patted me on the back and said I would be okay. That he would handle it. My father is a very stoic, big man. After that day that man didn’t say another word to me. Didn’t even look at me. My dad and stepmom are now divorced too. So there’s that. 😂

Haven't seen this movie in years. Thank you for the mother continuing to fight for her daughter. The father he really seems like a chump. I hope Laurisa is having a wonderful and healthy life after this horrific deal. Last I heard about her, she was an engineer and was married but that was years ago.

[@taracollins5597]

I thought the same about the father when I first saw this film, back in the 1990s. But nowadays, I realize that he was rather limited in what he could do......especially back then. No stalking-laws really existed, for one thing.....as Mrs. Annello fought for. A second: If he had hit or killed Curt, he would have gone to prison for years, maybe forever. Laurisa would be safer but her life would be destroyed without her dad. It was a no-win situation.

Samantha Forette,I agree with you.As a childless single man,I have 100% control of my sexual desires by waiting for a childless single female to do all the talking to me when there's no act of courtesy, emergency,work,or business involved.I'm not like these men who make assumptions,take the wrong chances and wrong advice about the meeting anti-social females,emulating the tactics that other men use to meet anti-social females,and get their hopes up on and caught up in the wrong things or the wrong way of right things wasting their time,breath, energy,and motion on females who aren't interested in them.If I waited days,weeks, months,and years for a childless single female to tell me what type of pleasure can she have with me that I expect her to have with me and she don't mention about,it then I would leave her alone and forget about her like she wants me to, and if there are men who have it difficult to follow my example,this may sound strange coming from me and sound like it don't relate to this subject matter,but I hope it works for the sake of decreasing the chances of harassment of females and other matters as well.Men who are both childless, single,and sexually addicted should go find out where can they determine their chances of becoming a father before they have sex with a female which means that men should know if they"re sterile and they won't be able to impregnate a female after having sex.Then find out how,where,and why people take the time, energy,and motion to use their hands to make statues, dolls, puppets, mannequins, dummies,action figures,and robots so childless single men can be hopefully influenced use their time to either buy or make robot females with their own hands so that it can help them leave alone and forget the females who aren't interested in these men.Thank you and I hope my suggestion was helpful.

He finally quit after my step mom practically jumped over the McD's counter he was working at, purposely made a scene (which got him fired on the spot), and threatened to send my dad after him if he didn't leave me alone (my dad is very old-school Italian; it wouldn't have ended pretty).

He got what he deserved after that last confrontation with Laurisa (the garage scene). I wished Nelson would've gotten a punch on him after he caught Curt sitting in his car near the house "waiting" for Laurisa. Boy, did Nelson have a surprise for him! It was a shame, though, he messed up his hand. And Scott (Laurisa's boyfriend) actually DID land a few punches during that street fight! Laurisa kept begging him not to fight him, but Scott didn't care. He wanted to send a message to Curt to tell _him_ to "stay away from her!" How exciting that was!

Whats sad about this movie is that it is a true story, that poor girl had no life in her younger years. She was right in her line about she was the one on probation and he got away with everything.

I mean, he supposedly loves her, but yet he goes to great lengths to scare her. there's another lmn movie kind of like this called Eye Of The Stalker 1995. its up here on KZbin. I just got finished watching it. its really really good, but the guy in it is such a snob, it hurts. LOL! you should check it out😊

[@DovesSweetSonnet]

Would he actually hurt her, theres a good chance of it yes....Jason Eric Massey, July 26, 1993, killed a 14 year old girl, and 13 year old boy. When they found his journal entitled "Slayer's Book of Death" they read within its pages his desire to KILL a certain girl because he "loves her"...also that he wanted to become the most prolific serial killer in American history. Thats just ONE of numerous accounts of killings out of "love" for the victim.

[@squeakybeak7832]

Hey, simmer down, batts2008. I don't see where Chiterra even said beat him up or bash someone's face in. She simply stated how annoying it is to see a dad be so passive about another adult stalking his underage daughter. And it was obnoxious for me to watch as well. His attitude at home was "don't worry too much about it." Even at the beginning of the movie, he knows that Kurt likes Laurisa and he teases his wife by saying "There's your son in law." Creepy! No, he doesn't HAVE to bash Kurt's head in to show somewhere in the movie that he has frustration/disgust that his daughter is being stalked like any rational, breathing being would. It was an unrealistic portrayal. But I think they just wanted to show two sides, so they had the mom go all the way one way and the father all the way the other. Anyway, be nice!

I remember a certain vendor would check in with our Reception on first floor, I was on 2nd. They would actually have the audacity to ask Reception; what I was wearing today. It got out of hand. Finally, I told my boss that if this didn't stop, I was suing for harassment. Oh, they stopped.

Look at California governor Jerry Brown who is setting record numbers of criminals free just so they can vote? And it's liberal judges who are being soft on these rapists and murderers, enforcing an agenda instead of the written rule of law. To blame the cops for the problems are ignorant. Cops are fathers and mothers too who don't want creeps roaming the streets with their kids either. They harass or intimidate a creep and he starts screaming police harassment/intimidation, excessive force, racism and the cop loses their job then they're blamed for the creeps on the streets. Smdh. Vote for politicians who actually get behind stalker laws, rape laws, anti-bullying laws. The cops isn't where the problem lies.

My daughter had a stalker at a very young age, one night (thankfully) she was not home ,and he came by the house and shot her bedroom window out it was so scary to go through ,it was just my younger daughter and I home alone. Cops took over 4 hours to come because we were not priority or an emergency case. She was such a brave girl and went through whole court proceedings to gain restraining orders from him and his father since they were both threatening to kill her and the family. She faced them head on in court and held her stare when they tried to intimidate her she never backed down not once. Of course we were right beside and behind her every single step of the way. We took immediate measures to ensure the safety of our family. Got a guard dog that was well trained and ready to protect, hot guns and made sure the girls were familiar with them and comfortable handling them. Even though we felt a little more safe it was far from over and we put in an excess amount of calls to the police department dealing with harrasment and stalking from them. I certainly forgot what sleeping was as my husband worked nights and I would stay awake to make sure girls were ok. It started to take a toll on us...my daughter was such a great student cheerleading with the high school, coaching, she had a part time job ,she had her future planned out and was thriving towards it,then PTSD hit and shes never been the same. I lost her emotionally, she is not the same person at all. He damaged her. Shes still reaching her goals in life and I'm so proud of everything she has accomplished, a career buying her own car and home etc but I lost the girl we had worked so hard at giving a full happy life. To see her smile is so rare and that's what hurts the most.

Best thing in the world you can do is be armed and train, especially women. The media will never tell you this fact because they have an agenda, but according to CDC numbers 500,000 to 3,000,000 lives are saved each year due to the defensive use of firearms. Criminals do not follow laws, period and the only people gun laws harm are law abiding citizens that are the only people to be disarmed under strict gun laws. The police show up after crimes are committed to document what happened and if there are no good guys with a gun then the bad guys with a gun will win everytime. There should be zero Gun Free Zone signs put up anywhere unless you want to be a sitting target. Things change when criminals have to wonder who they are up against and what kind of weapons they have behind the entry of any place they are deciding to commit a crime against. An armed society is a polite society. All the worst crime rate areas are places that have chosen to tie the hands of law abiding citizens in favor of only the state and criminals being armed.

i think it's called commitment in coach jargon. really hard to draw that line. everybody wants their child to be the specially gifted one who stands out as worthy of special attention and grooming . . . you don't assume the grooming is for unprofessional reasons. i mean the world would not go on if we didn't assume the best until we can't otherwise. treacherous as hell. but you can't keep that out on the table either, otherwise your children see you as paranoid and super un-socialised. my mom had me believing that having sexuality is basically like crossing a busy street through traffic and as a result i've been hiding mine my whole life, it scares the hell out of me. and all those precautions didn't help me from being abused as an object. just made me feel like it was my fault.

[@MissJessyeNorman]

25 years ago, it was still pedophilia for a man of 24 to be expressing romantic interest in a 14 year old child. No parent I knew would've let that stand. Healthy parents would've been disgusted immediately, and nipped it in the bud. People who are intellectually or socially stunted do not get a pass. They might be slow, but they have the full spectrum of emotions and character traits that every human does, that includes the entire negative and immoral side. One's child needs just as much protection from them as from anyone else, if not more - not because they are necessarily any more dangerous than any other group, but because too many people _will_ give them a pass out of a misguided sense of guilt. Thus, those who are predators, are granted easy access to their victims. And this, this needs to change, as does any adult man or woman having access to a minor.

Unfortunately the laws at the time allowed this sonofabitch to commit his crimes even though the law did not view it as a crime yet. Stalking wasn't recognized for what it is.

Jupiter Rising Absolutely. And some of them are called “mom.” The shit that label allows them to get away with is even more horrifying in terms of chronicity and severity than this.
