A more thorough explanation:

VISNE

Visne (pronounced veen or veen-ee) is a legal term that refers to a neighborhood or district from which juries were drawn in common law. It is also known as vicinage.

For example, if a trial was taking place in a certain county, the visne or vicinage would be the surrounding area from which potential jurors would be selected. This was done to ensure that the jury was made up of individuals who were familiar with the area and the people involved in the case.

Another example would be if a crime was committed in a specific neighborhood, the visne or vicinage would be the area immediately surrounding the location of the crime.

The examples illustrate how visne or vicinage is used in the legal system to determine the area from which potential jurors are selected. This helps to ensure that the jury is made up of individuals who are familiar with the area and the people involved in the case, which can lead to a fairer trial. It also helps to determine the area where a crime was committed, which can be important in determining jurisdiction and other legal matters.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
