Apologies to the original poster for hijacking this thread.
I am tempted to delete this whole side discussion. But, from time to time I guess we need to step back and remember why we are all here. That reason is to support each other. We cannot assume that someone has a cruel intent because he is working from a different set of facts. We all bring our baggage with us. We also cannot assume that we know what someone else is dealing with based on a few paragraphs.
It is fine to say you disagree or are offended by something someone posts. But, let’s keep it civil. Ideally, if toes are stepped on, there is an appropriate apology that is accepted. This way we all learn and grow. Some of us are sensitive. Some of us are insensitive. Maybe we can all try to be better listeners.
