Noel's angel Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 what about the whole 'I don't want to go to XYZ because my friend will think I'm copying her and it will ruin my life if she sabotages me'?

Disagreement is part of life. You should be accustomed to disagreement with your track record. If you've already lost one kid you'd better make sure that you're a heck of alot nicer to the other, becuase you'll loose him/her too. Though it sounds like they are already gone. Too bad for you.

Noel's angel Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 (edited) Yo, back off. Seriously. Also, stop criticising other peoples' grammar and spelling when your own is far from perfect. Btw, how many kids do you have? Edited January 20, 2008 by Noel's angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how many moms we have on the site? Do you know how many of them stay home full time? What is really more appropriate would be for you to comment on threads that you know something about. Instead of criticizing about a topic that you don't have the first clue about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel's angel Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 (edited) The point is, you have NO right to say whether or not someone can post about a certain topic. Nor do you have the right to immediately judge and harshly criticise that person. (hot stuff, we're really sharing a brain today...)
