[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, is this child attending McDonough? I also live in Baltimore and McD takes redshirting to an entirely different level than the other privates. [/quote]

No, Gilman. [/quote]

you are so gross OP. gossip!![/quote]

Yes OP is disgusting, gossiping about a child who.is likely identifiable now. That is supremely horrid behavior. Wow. [/quote]

The parent posted all of this information on facebook.... and I haven't said a single thing about this family or this child other than what the mother posted publicly on facebook, and that in my few interactions with the child he has seemed like a sweet, normal child (not developmentally delayed).  It's not like I'm airing their dirty laundry.  I am talking about the greater issue of redshirting and one example of it that I had seen recently that irritated me.  Hence the title of my thread that this is just another redshirting vent.  It has nothing to do with this mother or this kid, specifically, since my kid will never attend that school.  It's the general atmosphere in Baltimore of redshirting everyone. [/quote]

So you won't mind when someone sends his mom a link to this thread, then, because you think your behavior here has been just fine? Totally acceptable? Identifying a child on DCUM is NBD to you?[/quote]

Sure, I guess?  It's outing someone like saying "my neighbor likes blue flowers.... OMG my neighbor is Larla Larlason!"  This mother clearly redshirted her already older child, and posted it on facebook, and I'm commenting on how I dislike the phenomenon.  I'll call her myself and let her know about this thread if you really want and she can weigh in. [/quote]

Well, maybe that’s what you should have done in the first place like a grown up instead of creating drama for this poor kid. Perhaps you should have been held back and allowed time to adequately mature as well, OP.[/quote]

Honest question, how is this creating "drama for this poor kid"?  The thread isn't about him, it's about redshirting culture.  You're the only one focused on him and you don't even know who he is.  Nor does anyone else.  Move on. [/quote]

Redshirting culture was a red herring. She narrowed it down to the school and age of the kid. Unacceptable.  “Just another redshirting vent” would have been more appropriately titled “my insecure and narcissistic attempt to publicly shame someone for something that is entirely none  of my business”[/quote]

not to mention that she started her own thread instead of just posting in the other massive thread. OP's goal was to gossip about this child. So gross![/quote]

DP. Yes, it's despicable.

[b]I wonder if that poor child's mother will show up, and if she can identify OP[/b].[/quote]

You have a fascination with "outing" someone that I just don't have.  Sorry.  Just don't post things you'd be ashamed of and even if you're somehow "outed" it wouldn't matter. [/quote]
