Please be kind

I posted something earlier about a mistake I made with my food choice. Of the 4 responses I received, 2 of those people were extremely judgmental. This is a forum for support NOT for someone to break a person down. With this I'm asking, please be supportive to one another. Don't tell someone they need psychological help, or judge the decisions a person has made. This entire process is extremely emotional, full of ups and downs, and we need to build each other up, not down! So please people, be kind!

You don't get to choose how people reply!   If you don't want judgement - don't post - it's as simple as that.   This is not a support site - it is a business,  and as long as a post is not against TOS - it's allowable.  The fact that you don't like it, doesn't really matter!

Support is not always about patting your hand and encouraging your questionable behaviour - sometimes it's about keeping it real and that may well be giving you a kick in the ass ...

Agreed! Unbelievable! Some people are so miserable that they have to be so rude!

 Catben78,

I am one of the 2 you are accusing of being rude.  At this point I don't care if you ate pizza at 3 1/2 weeks and my reply to that was not judgmental but educational.  You went into a rage, a tantrum, and a harangue befitting a 14 year old.  You cursed those that offered you advice and you called the previous poster a JERK.  You continue to attempt to manipulate the forum to excuse your ill manners.  You deleted your offensive posts so others would not see you as you are...the truth.  Give it up.

It is no it rude - it is real life. There was noting rude in what Kim said. She stated the facts of 'life on internet'.

No its just RUDE. Plain in simple. This is a forum for support, asking questions not to get judged and put down. If I wanted to get judged and put down I would just stick with fam and friends because they are the best at that!!!!
