I thik everyone is entitled to thier opinion but depending on the circumstances you need to be careful how you express it. A particular topic may be very sensitive to some people and one needs to be careful in how or what one says. i agree

I don't know about everybody else but i was raised with '' if you cant say something nice, don't say anything at all!'' Maybe if people cant find a grownup way to give suggestions or opinions they should just keep it to themselves. There is no need for there personal attacks on anybody.

I've had it done in the forums, but not private message. I hate when people act like if you're not raising your kid their way, you're a bad parent.

Tanya - posted on 12/09/2009

no but I did report her to circle of mom's though. I thought the moderators just handle discussions that are posted, I figured they couldn't do anything about a private message.

Moderators cant really do anything about PM's , you could contact Lisa she is admin of the whole site .

this lady is still trying to message me and telling me she is going to have the police track down my computer! I couldn't help but chuckle on that one. I really didn't even get that rude with her until after she brought my kids into. I wrote one cuss word so I guess I'll get banned for life from circle of moms! & facebook she says! lamo

Have you contacted a moderator about this?

I hate when people post things and dont get the response they want so they get mad. As long as a post doesnt break any rules then I dont see the problem. I dont agree on fluffing things and Im not going to sugar coat things I say how I feel.

I don't think they get mad because they don't get the response they want, I think they get mad because certain people posting responses can't seem to do so with tact and class. Not to mention maturity and civility. It's one thing to have a differing opinion, it's another thing to do so in a way that attacks the person's ideas, beliefs or ability as a mom. I have read many of your posts and always I can't believe the way you say some things. There is always a nice way to say that you don't agree with something, but it seems many women don't want to be nice, or supportive. They seem to feel the need to attack one another...why? Why can't we agree to disagree without being mean, vengeful, immature and just plain catty?l

Jodi i could not agree more .

Unfourtunatly it seems some people lack social skills or emotional Quotient even on internet forums .

"This really should be a great place to gain support, insight and encouragement."

That is so true Jennifer.
I enjoy hearing what other mother's have to say about things even if I don't agree with it. If it helps one mom get through a certain stage it might help whoever is asking the question.

I have never been personally attacked but have read some pretty crazy posts. I know though that sometimes in my intend to help others can be misconstrued. If you post a question you will get feedback.. but I do not agree with the way some respond and in no way does anyone have the right to personally attack you in your private messages! This really should be a great place to gain support, insight and encouragement. Stick with the many that are those things on here and well.. get rid of the ones who are not so much. I guess the freedom of speech has always proved itself to be a double edged sword when you look into our history.. but what's that show? "You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have. The Facts of Life" Stick close to those that are encouraging and really you do not ever have to take in or respond to anyone who is ruffling you on purpose.. its hurtful I know. I can be pretty sensitive and found some to not be quite so much as kind when I posted something on a site.. but then again.. I did post it publicly! Be encouraged! There are great women on here who really care and are on here to encourage and be encouraged, so please do not let the one's who are not discourage you from some of the great support you could get! Blessings!

I agree with Jamie. I too don't sugar coat things and sometimes what i say may be taken the wrong way and i don't mean to be as rude as it sounds. I sometimes go over and over my post before sending it or i jsut delete it if i can't find the proper way to say something. I think there are times when all of us word things wrong and it can cause pain to someone but the fact is this is for opinions and yes when you post something yuo aren't going to get answers you necessarly like...it's jsut how someone else feels, it is not how you need to feel but when you ask fro an opinion and put it on the internet you need to be prepaired for some of the responses. We aren't all from the same part of the world and some don't have English as a first language and i hate seeing some of the ladies on ehre make fun of some of the others for not saying something properly or not being able to spell something right. We all need to just take the advice that we want and read the ones we dont' and take a bit from each. I have leanred so much on this site about how other moms do things and how others feel and i try to try everything i get suggested. If it doens't work it doesn't work.

I agree that we are all entitled to our own opinions. I try to respect the opinions/views of others and recognize everyone's right to an opinion. I also recognize that I don't have to agree with it. I think this is an interesting place to open our minds to others' points of views.

Alright ladies, if you are having problems with individuals then tell us about it, that's why we are here. But it will not do any good to "egg" them on, keep that in mind.

I think everyone is entitled to their opinion. Although the way people express their opinion sometimes concerns me, sometimes it's kinder to let it go and move on to another conversation. I think complete strangers who can find something to argue about, to a point where it goes back and forth between ladies with inappropriate comments until it spills over onto a public forum, need to find better things to do with their time.



This is a place where we can come together as moms to support one another, maybe make a few friends or learn something new that could benefit your children. I find it a little psycho indeed.

Jodi - posted on 12/09/2009

I have no had anyone message me privately, or even attack me in a forum, (nor have I attacked others). But some of the women on here...my goodness! Yeah, I definately think there are some women on here who need anger management or some serious help. Just my opinion, not at anyone in particular, but I'm sure they know who they are. ;)
