How tacky of you to post on this family section Liz, after you suggested people who are sensitive ought to stick here.
<b>I was only trying to be helpful. I was trying to offer an alternative to the adult section for parents who don't want to hear certain things. I never once said that they should "stick to the family section". I suggested the family section as an alternative to ask questions about your kids. If you didn't understand me then I'm sorry that you didn't. You really read too much into my suggestion. So if you think me tacky, then that's fine, because your opinion in the grand scheme of things makes no difference to me. Tonight when I go to sleep, I'll have forgotten just how insulting you sounding calling me tacky, when in fact I was just trying to be genuine. I'm sorry if you didn't understand the sentiment behind my initial comment. That's the problem with the internet - you can never get feelings across, and people sometimes misunderstand you.</b>
Plus, before you post here, maybe you should remove your sig or post anonymously <b>"since you can't remove it just once"</b>. <b>- What can't I remove once? My post? I'm not understanding you're "I can't remove it once"</b>
<b>Why should I post anonymously? I'm not ashamed of what I write. I always think before I post. I believe my statement of "sugar coating breeds unrealistic hope." - its true. Someone tells you your kid has CF, and you ask your doc, will my child die of this disease. Your doctor then says, probably not. By the time your kid is old enough they will be able to control the disease. And that's all the doc tells you, not that sure they may be able to control it, but there is the chance that they will die of it, because that's how it stands right now. NOw you have unrealistic hope in you, because your doctor didn't mention the dieing part. So I'm not removing that part of my signature.
As for the "Proud card carrying member of the "Attack Posse" - I'm not ashamed of putting that either. It was a joke. Julie said that I'm always attacking people, which I don't. I've never attacked, so I put it in as a joke. I'm sorry that you don't share my sense of humour. Oh well.
And the "Wounding the inner child of others since 11/05." That was a joke too. I'm sorry that I again offended you. But it was a joke. I was planning on having it on there for the day, and then getting rid of it. According to Julie, I attack people, I'm mean to them, I'm sarcastic to them all the time, etc. It seems that my honesty isn't welcome there either, so my whole "inner child" thing, was me having fun about how some people on here are being childish.</b>

<b>I really don't know why people are attacking me. I've never once been rude to people or disrespected them. If anything, the people who are attacking me are being rude. I've been on here since NOvember of last year, and this is the first time that someone has attacked me. No one has ever had a problem with me, and if they did, I'd like to think that they would PM it to me, and not post anonymously. I've offered a ton of advice for parents of CFers on here, and adults on here as well. I've been through what your kids are going through, so I can offer advice in this section, and I'm free to post in this section. Just like all family members are allowed to post in the adult section. All I was saying, is that if you don't like the adult section, then don't post there. Don't get yourself working up over stuff you don't like, and continue on to the family section.</b>
