[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's so much judgement in DC, it makes me ill.  I don't about other areas, as I've lived since '91 and didn't have children at the time, but in 2014, there's plenty of judgement in DC - it's everywhere you turn.  Goes beyond parenting - you're judged by your home and then your neighborhood, your vehicle and then the age of your vehicle, what school your children attend, what activities your children are into and then if you're over or under scheduling activities, your job, your income - the list is fucking endless.[/quote]

[i]Project much[/i]?  You may want to evaluate what you think of others and what YOU look at in other people.  Its easy to blame a place or a culture, but YOU are part of it too.  All one can do is be the best person one can be.

I dont think of myself as judged by these things, because I dont judge others by these things.  People are free to think whatever they want, about me or my family or anyone else.

I'm even happy to explain the reasoning behind any choices we have made, if anyone ever wants to have a discussion.  But thankfully nobody ever wants to discuss.  So I can keep on actually living and not being concerned.[/quote]

This.  I mean, I'm sure some people are judging me because I don't make a ton of money and my house isn't perfect and I don't even own a car, but I really don't care, and I certainly don't judge others based on those things.  I decide whether I want to be friends with someone or spend time with them based on whether they are kind and interesting and I enjoy their company.  I couldn't even tell you what kind of cars my friends drive, let alone how old they are.  Life is too short. [/quote]
