[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still think the best idea is to put a spoiler type heading such as "NATIONAL NEWS STORY - INVOLVES CHILDREN.  DO NOT READ IF EASILY UPSET".  I think that solves problems on all ends.  Those who want to post those stories can, and those who don't want to read the stories don't have to click on the title.  If you get upset just seeing that title, I don't know what to tell you.  Similarly, it can be changed to any area, so if you feel like it may impact you, click on it.  But you've been properly warned in the title without being given gruesome details.  Can we agree on this? [/quote]

No. I would like more information in the title to decide if I want to read it.  [/quote]

Seriously?  How can you want more information but also not want information that would make you upset?  You really don't want to reach a compromise do you? [/quote]

I am not one of the ones not wanting the info. I do not want a compromise as I do not think one is needed. I see the unpleasant titles and if I think the article will be pointless and upsetting I do not open it. I am not so fragile that reading a headline alone is going to induce a breakdown, and frankly if I were, I should not be on the Internet.[/quote]

+1 I'm really beginning to wonder how some people function in real life, if reading a title is that traumatic for them. Just skip over it. Is it that difficult?

They feel as though the title has already scarred them for life....[/quote]
