[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone should be trying to provoke you on purpose, but I'm struggling to think of something that isn't overtly political that would be that upsetting. Was it worth it? Could you have just rolled your eyes and walked away?[/quote]
It involves something related to my child. I truly did try to ignore it, but they kept challenging me in a hostile way. Once I realized they were likely trying to get a rise out of me, I snapped and figured I should give them what they wanted. [/quote]

When you are telling your side to the people who contacted you, do you feel like they support your reaction or not? It's hard to say whether or not your reaction was reasonable without knowing what it was about. [/quote]
I haven’t responded[/quote]

If it were me, I would tell Susie that Janie said kids who are conceived via IVF aren't real kids and nature was trying to stop their parents from procreating for some good reason so they should have just accepted that and not had kids and that really hurt my feelings because you know Jacob was conceived via IVF and eventually after Janie wouldn't drop it I lost my temper and yelled at her. It wasn't my finest moment and I'm not proud of how I handled it but I took the personal attacks really hard and unfortunately it got the best of me.

In other words, tell the people what was said and apologize for how you behaved. [/quote]
