Once
It's in Writing It Can't Be Erased
Dear
Harlan,
I
thought you gave excellent advice to the young person writing
about the creepy teacher online, particularly in mentioning
to print out the pages before they are deleted. I've been
a parent and a grandparent - and a longtime secretary through
the years for psychiatrists and psychologists. If the pages
are not dated, I would additionally recommend that the student
date them. Document, document, document.

Dear Shirley,
Interesting fact - President George W. Bush doesn't send or
receive e-mail because he said that once it's in writing it's
part of the record? Once it's recorded, it's hard to refute
it. And for sure, when it comes to a creepy teacher who could
get arrested or fired, it's essential to make sure it's documented.
