[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You're not a Pollyanna[/b], you're a rude bitch who gets her kicks by saying terrible things to others. Have some fucking empathy or, at least, manners. [/quote]

uh yeah

I never said I was a Pollyanna - quite the opposite, in fact.

But this is not about me, as I have two kids conceived w/o the help of a fertility expert at a "ripe old age."  But I at least recognize I was lucky. And prior to marriage and kids, I was just fine - a career woman.

Again, most of you who are offended by OP's position are proving her point.  Save your eggshells for children's art projects.   [/quote]

How is "go take your prozac and drown yourself in vodka tonics" not offensive to most people? Expecting someone to walk on eggshells and expecting someone to act like a human being are not the same thing. But, you go ahead and keep patting yourself on the back for saying needlessly horrible things to a person you don't even know.

I hope your kids never need empathy. They'll be in for a rude awakening from you. [/quote]

I am empathetic.  I am NOT enabling, however.

There's a difference.

I've taken friends to have abortions. I've stayed with friends who have had miscarriages. I've supported friends who have children with SN.

But again, I will tell it like it is.

I don't care if OP is a troll or not.  If she is, so be it.  What's significant is that this issue has been raised and it ruffles feathers.  Most importantly, it makes me grateful for the friends I have b/c they're REAL and they accept life's nasty obstacles.

Many of you can't seem to do so.  So while you may put down my parenting skills, my daughter is one of the most resilient kids around who can handle some tough situations that have basically "crippled" (for lack of a better word) some of her friends.

So I will stick to my Prozac and Vodka line b/c I've witnessed so many women turning to pills and alcohol b/c they can't handle the truth. And their "friends" enable that.

Good friends speak the truth - ESPECIALLY if it hurts.
