Just because I disagree with someone doesn't mean I'm insulting her. I disagree with everything Jorvia and PNJ's mom post about sahms, but I love reading their posts and never once felt insulted! (They'll just have to try harder.) Stop calling me rude, or just stop reading my posts! I'm not rude, I'm just more pointed and less diplomatic than you. Unlike you and everybody else here, I totally don't find Momofhk "condescending" at all. So, obviously, I see things differently.

<> You are soooo wrong about me. I'm focusing on the substance of the posts, not the tone and I think I've answered all of your questions. Why wouldn't I? And you're wrong - I pride myself on not using LOLs or smiley face icons to be condescending. I know I'm no better than anyone here, certainly not the wohms. I definitely think sah is best for children, but life is not black and white, and I know there are many, many good reasons for woh.

You've called me before on my tone and for being rude, I just don't see it. I know I'll be flippant in the future if I think there's an unwarranted, merciless pile-on, so be forewarned. Thanks.

Okay let me get this straight....you can jump in to them middle of an ongoing thread that you have had little to do with when YOU think it acceptable but I can't?

I'll lend you one of my kid's bike helmets if it would help with the head-banging.

Why is it ok for you to sound this way to others, and "you dont mean to", but when you accuse me of exactly the same thing you do, its different, and i am referred to as rude and condescending?

Are you the pot or the kettle, because your tone feels the same as my tone feels to you.
