The public seems to be mesmerized by the Casey Anthony trial and the verdict of not guilty. Frankly, we didn’t follow the trial or much of the media frenzy. We don’t really know anything about Casey’s allegedly dysfunctional family or what really happened to young Caylee.

Psychologists shouldn’t try to diagnose someone they have never met—it’s just not appropriate, ethical, or good practice. However, it does seem pretty likely that Caylee didn’t always have the care and attention that she needed in her short life.

Remembering Memorial Day!

I found this really beautiful video from Humanity Healing , that helps us remember the significance of what Memorial Day is all about. I have several military families that train with me, and several members that have been deployed over the past three years. Thankfully, no one I know personally has been wounded or killed. However, we are engaged in two wars and the reality is we have men and women who continue to be in harms way. Let's say a prayer for the fallen, and those still serving on the front lines! Thank you to all who serve and those that gave their lives to protect our freedom! Happy Memorial Day! Sensei Chris Feldt Samurai Karate Studio Columbia, SC 29229 803-462-9425
