I want to publicly apologize to Valentine8821 and to any other person offended by my post regarding Valentine8821's situation. I made a statement that reads like a slam against single mothers.

I want to say publicly and out in front, that I sincerely apologize for that remark. I did NOT mean for my statement to read like that. What I meant was that I had been married and had kids. That I had experienced a lot by being married a long time. I was NOT knocking single mothers. I have many friends who were not married before having their children. STUFF HAPPENS. They are great moms and care for their children better than some married moms I know.

My remark was NOT meant to cut and belittle. I worded it wrong. I fully admit my error and apologize for it. I am sorry.

I meant to say APOLOGY in my title, not Aplogy. I cannot type today.

I know what you meant when I read the whole thread. I realize what it sounded like, but didn't think you would intentionaly mean to say it. You do reply often here, and give the best advice to your knowledge. That is appreciated.


Just wanted you to know

I appreciate it. I didn't word things the way I meant them. Sometimes the written word cannot convey emotion and tone, etc. Sometimes it is just hard to express what you really mean.

I might not agree with someone, but I would never intentionally be mean to them.

Yes, without a doubt.
