ugh!they feel like they know everything when they give you a response..i know everybody is entitled with its own opinion..i know that but cant just people give us a break and read the whole discussion before they go responding and make a whole lot of mistake with their response? Mooch here is having a difficult time with her daughter and she is here to vent and not to be dictated on what she must do and told how awful she is with her parenting..I'm sorry Mooch i know this is your thing but i just cannot keep my mouth shut! this certain member had responded to you rudely i think and to me as well..she thinks she knows everything..i guess when she stumble with the same situation we had guess she will keep her mouth shut for goodness sake..she doesn't even know how hard it is to be a mother of a special child..she must have one so she would fit in the shoe and see what will she tell you next..oh i bet she will be trying to vent as well..

OMG!! I thought you were talking about me just now posting to this discussion, LOL. I see you were talking about at the other one. It scared me cause I thought someone hacked my password like they did Jimbo's and was trolling under my name.

i know what you mean. even if you give a response, someone else also goes and make a comment on your response. lots of times its rude and just to put us down. i have stopped being serious here. its useless. they dont care.

i do when i respond. i have an empathic heart. i never attack anyone. if someone posts a rude remark to my discussions, i still give them a plus and just respond back nicely.

its alright to get serious sometimes you know..but before getting too serious we must put consideration to the person we are responding before we make any response that would offend anyone..sometimes they tell people improper words at the wrong time..think of what they are feeling first before we act like lecturing others..

maybe this member you speak of also needed a spot to vent and choose that particular discussion possibly? This is what is good about the site to a point. I haven't seen the post or responses so this is all I'll say about it. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Well here is the problem, it's a forum and unlike a diary were we can vent with no response, here we are opened to them. It's a shame some can't express themselves without insult or they become too emotional with their reply. I personally seen the post in question, and I walked away. I understand her situation, yet there were things I didn't agree with. I choose to keep them to myself, but that is just me. Somedays I have better restraint than others, I must admit. The same is for everyone else here, no one is innocent from letting their emotions get the best of them. We have all come across a post so outrageous in nature, that we just loss it. I guess we all have to accept there are going to be replies we don’t want. That is just how it is. Now we can rebut their responses or we can just walk away. However the reality is if one feels they don’t want to be judged on something, the safest thing to do is don’t post it. I hope I don’t sound snotty, it’s not my intentions in anyway. Just sharing my thoughts on this.

i understand you..you didn't sound snotty to me..i fully understand that we would receive comments that we don't wanna read at all but i wish sometimes people will see other people's feelings first before they go on telling their stuff don't you think? she also responded to me like she knows everything when i said my cousin just did what she did and she started to utter things about homosexuality..i just don't see why they have to respond like offending others when they can be much polite to tell them what the think and not to sarcastically say things to her..i mean Mooch here is having a rough time..she needs people who can understand her and not people who will tell her she is doing her parenting incorrect..

When you start a discussion open to anyone to view you must expect to hear things you dont want to. If the whole point of the discussion is to vent something or simply to write thoughts down then a diary is needed When you start a disucssion on a site like this views/readers naturally think you are asking for thier opinion when they give it they get slated just get a blog or a note book instead

i know this is not a diary to vent with all of the frustrations we have but at least there are friend who can understand and give symphaty with the person..can't just people stop lecturing others? this person I'm talking about was seem to lecture her on what to do with her kid and at the point that Mooch is feeling down she must have known better of what she had to post..i understand that we sometimes receive responses that we do not want to see but cant just this people try think about the person's feeling just before she say a lot of crap upon her? she can say it in a nice way rather than being sarcastic

Hi angel_of_charm! Finally, I was able to have an access in your discussion...I am not sure what's the problem because everytime I respond, a blank page just opens up since this afternoon...or maybe, it's just my internet connection. However, it's good to see you back and don't let these people affect you in any way..easier said than done, right? LOL. i know it's hard sometimes to get over those not so good responses because it really hurts and are insulting really... But just look on the bright side, you have gained a lot of good friends here and we'll get to play bingo next week! LOL! Have a beautiful evening with "loveydove"! :)

Hello friend I have seen many people not reading the whole discussion and reply. There are a lot of people who used to do this .. infact I have seen them saying that they won't read the whole discussion and they find it boring to read the whole discussion and they basically reply by reading the title of the discussion .. and I feel it as really disgusting. Even mylot guidelines say that you should read the whole discussion while replying but there are plenty of users who are violating this rule.

different people have different opinion ,you just see it is ok,you don't necessarily care the response is right or wrong...you should study how to receive others' ideas...
