AUTHOR'S AFTERTHOUGHTS

Whenever I begin talking about Emotional Terrorism, nice people get twitchy. People who do not want to move out of their comfort zone suggest I'm overly dramatic. Those who have never confronted Emotional Terrorism question my motives. Others who have witnessed, been hurt, or challenged by an Emotional Terrorist thank me. They whisper their story about someone who has caused untold grief to themselves or others.

Whenever I begin talking about Emotional Terrorism, Emotional Terrorists get twitchy. They want to know what I know. They usually heckle me and try to discredit me for a while. I find it amusing. The only thing they truly fear is recognition and exposure.

I have seen too many harsh consequences of Emotional Terrorism not to be a siren. It was never the role I wanted in life, but I don't mind. I have met enough Emotional Terrorists in my work to want to help the good guys. And I have met enough good guys who are ready to set up early warning systems at their work sites rather than being taken by surprise ever again.
