And I find those that threaten violence (I'll shove that phone up your a--) need some anger management classes. If you have such a vitriol response to an anonymous post that from someone you'll likely never run into, you need help. A simple "I'd confiscate the phone and delete the photo because it's inappropriate to take photos of a child peeing" would be the appropriate response.

Ok honey I read that crazy thread and you need to take your hate back there. This thread is to express frustration with the exact thread you are commenting on. I fyou still have an issue with the mom you were arguing with take it back there.

I'm not for/against either side. Both sides ratched it up to an uncalled for level. Hence, why I used examples from both sides that are *crazy*. There are better ways to communicate your disagreement than the way these 2 (or possibly 3 or 4 or 5) people did.

Ha. I was the "phone up your ass" commenter. I guess technically it was threatening violence. But do you really think I could shove a phone up someones ass? In the literal sense it would be kind of awkward and weird. And maybe kinda gross. Grosser than peeing in the bushes. Sometimes people say things to get a point across. But no, I wouldn't really shove a phone up someones ass. People take these kinds of posts way to seriously.

PP here that wrote the list. I just read the peeing in the park thread. Now that some crazy shit. Those aren't trolls, just weirdos.

Need some clarification on what is a troll is what is something else (and what would you term it?)
Loosley using examples from recent threads...
'Venting about DH...' (and OP said she was venting)
response "you knew it when you married him"
To me unhelpful, maybe snarky, wouldn't call it a troll (or would you? DK?) but why even bother to write it?
'Can I go bare legged...'
response "only whores go bare legged"
Troll? Mean person? Seriously uncalled for in my opinion.

PP here,
1st thread = not troll...just opinion
2nd thread = maybe troll, but unhappy person (probably nasty legs too)

A mother just had a post I think in "off-topic" but cannot remember about how she had PPD and people on there were making fun of her or not believing her. I mean I have posted some harsh things but that takes the cake. As a woman I cannot believe someone would do that. I would call Troll there.

PP, you say that as if it's okay. Of course you are not going to actually find this person and shove a phone up her ass. But do you not see how revolting you yourself come across by posting something like that? The only point you got across was that you are a cretin and it's time for most people to abandon the thread so the freaks can get to it. Is that how you want to be?

I'm one of those people that take it seriously (not as in I'm going to report cyber bullying kind of way, just as in people should be nicer kind of way, if that makes any sense to anyone). Why? Well, I know some people that would actually try to do something violent in that scenario, maybe not shoving it up an ass, bet certainly crushing the phone and punching the weirdo-stalker-photo taker-no-peeing-bushes-self-proclaimed-enforcer. I certainly understand using colorful language to get a point across, I just thought this topic (as in a lot of the posts in the topic, not just the shoving it up the ass one in particular) got way out of hand. And this topic isn't the only one lately.

I also have a sister who has been fired twice in the last 4 years (and she's almost 40) because she doesn't know how to use appropriate language. She drops the f-bomb at work and *threatens* violence even though she wouldn't actually do it, and employers don't put up with that for long. So I try to be an example for her and show her that using that type of communication isn't called for 99% of the time.

Telling a woman expecting her first baby to "STFU" was also shockingly harsh (in the orgasmic birth thread).

You called me a cretin. I find this extremely unacceptable.

Yes I agree with you. Personally, I have no idea how it could be orgasmic but if someone thinks so then good for them. There is one woman on the CIO thread though who is calling people abusive parents for doing it. I have read alot of posts on here about the anti and pro CIO but never in my life has someone been so agressive about it. She is basically telling people that if they do it then they are ABUSIVE. I am sorry but if someone calls me a child abuser thats when I hit the fan.

ha ha. I didn't call you a cretin; I was telling you how you come across to others when you post that you'd shove a phone up someone's ass. But I'll be more careful in the future!

Well, it seems that your sister isn't very smart if she's using that kind of language in the work place. Sheesh. How dumb was that? Just thought you should know. My comment on shoving a phone up someones ass? Brilliant.

That's me. I'm not calling anyone an abuser; in fact, I said parents are being told it's okay when it's not. I'm saying the mechanism of CIO -- the reason CIO works -- is EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE MECHANISM of abuse and neglect. Abused and neglected kids stop crying and so do kids whose parents use CIO -- and for the very same reason, not a different reason because the parents have different intentions. Sorry, but I'm not going to stop stating the obvious. It is about the affect on babies, not about you or your intentions (or how sensitive you are to hearing the news). Because you don't want to hear it does not make me a troll.

You said, "you are a cretin." I can't believe you. Way to be insulting.
