If you'd been paying attention the past 4 years you'd of noticed the one thing that REALLY gets me angry is when someone says something negative regarding my kids. Out of everything I've done in my life the one thing I've done right and am proudest of is my kids.
I understand. When I was a kid, I thought anyone over the age of 40 was ancient, too.pixiegirl said:
That's because you're highly defensive and looking for a fight. She didn't say anything that would provoke such an aggresive response from you. She even came back later and spelled it out for you, that she doesn't look down on you.
Please show me where she said anything negative about your kids.pixiegirl said:Well that was uncalled for. The class is just oozing these days.

If you're feeling overwhelmed and hostile, then you need to own that - not try and project it on someone else.

That's exactly how I took it too. The :shakingmyhead: thing just came across to me as condesending and somewhat rude, but perhaps I just read that feeling into her post.K_Jo said:I kinda took it that way, too. The "shakingmyhead" comment came across very much like, "Oh PLEASE!

It's all about choices and I take offense if I feel that someone is looking down on my parenting because I am afforded different opportunities. If there's one thing I can be proud of in my life it's the job I do with my pigs. I take offense and thus get defensive when I feel that is being belittled or questioned.
C_Jo wants a baby -- will you raise it for me? I'm way too tired.pixiegirl said:Thanks ladies.
