Its no longer affordable to have 2 cars so I watch judge karen now in the lobby of my job as I wait for the train to start running again on days my gf has the car. 1 episode I watched a mother was suing a swim instructer for the reimbursement of class fees bc her son was being bullied and the instructor despite the mother talking to him did nothing to intervene the bullying continued so she thought the best thing to do was to take him out of the class. I don't know the law in this case but what judge karen told her was that kids get bullied and that mom shouldn't always jump in and save them. And ruled against her what bs. The kid was only 11. It doesn't specify the type of bullying but If my kid is getting hit or spit on or called names and dunked in the pool and the instructor lets that happen I'm taking my kid out of that class. The next episode is even worse.
So then I saw another episode and this prompted me to write this review. A girl was suing her former best friend for a scholarship she lost due to the friend posting a picture online and accusing her of being a man stealer and she began to get cyberbullied and bullied on campus by everyone to the point she couldn't leave her room and slipped back into a deep depression. She also testified that she had struggled with mental illness and sought therapy prior to the whole incident and that the defendant was also aware of that. Because of the severe bullying she missed classes and lost her scholarship. Judge karen ruled against her. I couldn't believe it. The photo in question was just a picture of her sitting next to the guy and they are laughing. Judge karen even said there was nothing to suggest cheating in the photo. So if thats the case isnt it defamation of character for someone to post a pic of you and spread harmful lies about you? Instead judge karen told the girl she needs to pick herself up by her bootstraps. How is that justice?? To me judge karen is disgusting. She lets her personal views get in the way of her rulings and her view on bullying is it doesn't exist. Despite the many many kids who have lost their lives because of it. Killed other kids. Kill theselves. I feel sorry for the girl I hope she is okay and gets help or that this show is fake.
