and I implement it frequently.

'Walking away' was a tactic recommended to my younger daughter by a psychiatrist, as she was (and still is, at the age of 26!) bullied (emotionally) by her older sister (and her father/my husband at the time.) Of course they then (and the older still does, 15? years later) complain that she's walking away! I'm glad she practiced it then, and she still does.

They need an answer and they need a villain. Short of real evidence they've concluded it must be mental illness that brought down a passenger jet.

And they may get lucky and get confirmation.
