Aly-
I never took this thread to be directed at any ONE person, and I respect your opinion on it. I just have a different opinion. Shoot, I have different opinions on lots of things, with lots of people. I am not mad/offended/upset by your posts..I just don't agree. I don't like you less, respect you less, etc. I enjoy differences of opinion, and probably am a little bit more comfortable with conflict than lots of people on this board. I hate to think that you are upset about this. When I read it, I don't think I see the 'nasty' stuff you might be seeing.
Micki- I was using your neice as an example only, just because you had just mentioned the situation. I wasn't, in any way, being critical of your parenting/aunting skills. It was just as an example. As to using and abusing me...well, I don't find that offensive. I didn't take it in a sexual way...but, it does, once again, serve as an example. You said it to me. You didn't mean it offensively, I didn't take it offensively, but others did....you just can't please people sometimes. I could find insult in nearly every post, if I searched.
I stick by my original comments. This is the DH, and I don't want to have to censore myself because of some (or any) child. I would find PT alot less enjoyable, and would contemplate leaving, because it wouldn't be serving my needs any longer. I think my opinion should 'count' just as much as some child's.
