Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi Alisha, you are going to see that on any public forum, some people just thrive off of controversy. The beauty part is that you dont have to listen to it and can just ignore it. Dont be afraid to ask a question, if someone has something rude to say, just laugh it off as ignorance and go to the next posting which is more than likely someone else wanting to help :-)

ya I agree . I always thought the contraversy can provide really good input and information ,but the more I see of it the more I realize this to be false . I think if people want to disagree they should just say so in one word or less . I think I know what you are talking about but you have to admitt the woman who called abuse on you also learned that maybe she was wrong and you also got a little bit of input so I think everyone learned from it but you are right ' did it have to go through all that ' probably not .

What happen? I understand if you don't want to talk about it. Don't take what people say to heart.

It depends on the question or comment made. Some threads deserve negative responds such as "I'm pregnant by my brother in law", "How do I kill my baby and so on. I may even crack a joke and women get their panties all in a pitch...lol....I myself regret making comments calling someone a liar after reading so many crazy untrue stories but later apologized for my mistake. It happens because I'm human. Humans make mistakes so I live and learn. No here is prefect and I don't judge people for expressing their views on threads. Most people make mean nasty comments and hid behind other names. I happen to let people know who I am and get bashed and attacked more. I happen to a regular on the forum and my name is seen more so likely I will have people who don't like me. Oh well, I move on to the next thread and ignore the person. This is a forum and you will have people who enjoy starting disagreements for their amus____nt. Sick to me but fun for the basher....LOL....Don't never take anyone comments to heart. No one truly know what kind of person you are but you. Right? Alisha, smile sweetie....You have a beautiful son and that is all that counts. Take care everyone...(((HUGS)))...Keekee

Thanks you guys. I guess Im just really sensitive. Also one of the reasons I liked this forum to begin with is because of all the positive advice and someone just hurt my feelings really bad. I know I shouldn't let it get to me. I'll try. Thanks KeeKee for your help especially, and thanks for looking at my baby pics. He is such a sweetie. I will keep his website updated. Oh and I decided to put a pic of myself on there too. Ahhh.... www.kylerdavid.piczo.com

Sorry that you have met some of the b___hy people on here. I think we all have! Your baby is so cute!!! How old is he?

If you would like to see for yourself read "Help!I cant dress my baby!" I had said I tried to hold him down with my leg, without pressure I might add, just so I could get a diaper on him. He is strong and If I never get a diaper on him he will get cold or pee everywhere. Thats why I asked the question to see what else I could do. And someone said I was abusive. Im not. I guess it bothers me so much is because my father was abusive towards my mother, not me just so you know, and I am firmly against that kind of thing. Its just some people dont think about others feelings before they speak. I don't care if someone disagrees with me but there are other ways to express it other than crudeness. So you can see why I took that particular comment to heart?

He is now 8 months old. Thanks! :)

I posted one in there(Tiffany) I never said that you were abusive...If it came across that way i am truely sorry. I know the other person was saying some c___p on there that she really shouldnt have said.

ok i just reread what Abuse said in your other post. Wow was that person way out of line. I think the first time i just skimmed it but now that i reread it i see 100% why you are upset. You are NOT a bad parent.

Thank you Tiffany. I wasn't referring to you as you know now. Thanks for your advice! :)

Hey, this is "To Abuse" If I said anything out of line, I really apologize. I think that "Abuse" was pretty out of line. I guess I tried to put her in her place a little. Alisha, how is the baby dressing going, anyway??? My daughter has recently taken to running around the house with nothing but a diaper and some shoes (she puts them on herself, on the wrong feet). I always pray that no one comes over. :)

The dressing is not any better yet. Tonight after his usual nightly bath, when he fights me the most, I figured out how to put a diaper on him backwards with him standing up. Don't worry you werent the one who offended me. I just don't like conflict I guess. In a way you stood up for me. And thank you for that. :)

to "to all" , how old is your daughter? Just wandering when its time for me to do that too.

Alisha, in any forum where users don't have to register, you'll see a lot of mean comments. Some of these people are so ignorant I feel sorry for them, some believe so strongly that their way is the only right way that they come across as rude, and some people are just having a bad day so they come here to dump on other people. Every mom has a different parenting philosophy, and has different resourses available to her. We all have to do the best we can and find what works for our families, and it may not be the same thing that works for other families. Take the advice that's useful to you, and ignore the rest. One thing about having a baby is that it makes total strangers feel they have the right to offer advice to you in parks, stores, etc. That's a little harder to shrug off than anonymous advice posted here. I've had a few people tell me things that really upset me, like once I was getting gas and a man came up and said he hoped I'd be sad when my baby died because I had the carseat buckled in the front seat (it was a single cab truck and the only vehicle I had). Another time a pregnant woman came up to me in a store and said if I read to my daughter more she'd learn to speak normally (my daughter was two then, but she's so tall she looks older). It's really upsetting when someone doesn't know anything about you but feels they have the right to tell you what you're doing wrong. Just by being here, looking for advice, you're a better parent than a lot of people. Don't let the mean people drive you away :-)

I have seen some harsh stuff directed at you here, but I am awed that you get sh!t from people in "real" life. I am awed because you seem not to have become bitter by it. I think you might be my hero for today!
