Hi, I am posting this message on behalf of a close friend who has been severely affected by the actions of Ms. Barrett. I want to emphasize that her behavior can have serious and destructive consequences for those around her. Her conduct is not only morally reprehensible and utterly disgusting, but it also demonstrates a pattern of vindictiveness and manipulative tendencies that are deeply concerning.
To provide a clearer picture, here is a detailed account of what happened: Ms. Barrett engaged in a one-night stand with someone, during which she deliberately sabotaged the condom to cause pregnancy demanding he cum inside her. After the man provided her with Plan B, she proceeded to vomit it, thereby nullifying its effect. When the man expressed that he was not ready or willing to have a child and did not want to be involved in parenthood at that time, Ms. Barrett shockingly declared that she would have the baby regardless of his wishes and would hold him solely responsible for supporting it.
She claimed (though this remains unverified) that she was raised by a single mother and wanted to replicate that upbringing, but with financial stability and support from the father. Essentially, she was trying to force him into an obligation to provide for both her and the child, despite his evident reluctance, instead of agreeing to a reasonable amount of child support—typically around $800 to $900 per month—Ms. Barrett demanded significantly more, which led to a series of legal disputes.
As a result of her persistent demands and the ongoing stress of the situation, the father suffered severe emotional trauma and developed PTSD. This trauma severely impacted his ability to work and maintain stability. Through questionable court orders, Ms. Barrett was able to secure a court-mandated garnishment of over 80% of his after-tax income, which was approximately $3,000 per month. This financial burden added tremendous pressure and trauma, further exacerbating his mental health issues and impairing his daily functioning.
Even as she continued to push for additional financial support, the stress and emotional toll caused the father to become increasingly overwhelmed, leading to further mental health deterioration. The situation illustrates the profound emotional and psychological harm inflicted, not only economically but also in terms of mental well-being.
Men should not be forced into supporting a woman after a single encounter where she intentionally sabotages contraception and then vomits the emergency contraceptive, especially when it is made clear that she is not prepared or willing to have a child. This scenario is particularly troubling when involving someone like Ms. Barrett, who appears to engage in reckless and manipulative behavior throwing herself at this man within an hour the first night after she met him.
It is deeply shocking and concerning that the NH Women’s Bar Association would seem to endorse or showcase someone with such a troubling history of harmful, manipulative actions. The entire situation raises serious questions about judgment and responsibility, and highlights the need for greater scrutiny regarding the conduct of individuals involved in the legal and professional community.
