Roman “vampire burial” tells tale of ancient undead fears.

>>Nowadays vampires and zombies are the stuff of movies, but for many ancient cultures they were seen as a very real threat. Archaeologists excavating a children’s cemetery in Italy have uncovered a grisly reminder of that belief – the skeleton of a child with a large stone jammed into its mouth, a measure long thought to prevent the body from returning from the dead.<<

Certainly would be a good means of sending a body to the dead.

No. Just ineffectual, fraught with anxiety, is far more interested in socialising than work, etc. Just the typical adult.

But was hearing just a few minutes ago of a friend of a friend.
Her daughter fights her mother, is obsessed with cleanliness to the point of mental illness, is into wrist-cutting self harm, and won’t take her medication.

The three of us talking came to the conclusion that none of us have the slightest clue how to handle a case like that.
