If I had not had the breakthru that turned my case around, believe me, I would have gone to the media if the Courts failed to protect my son. The only thing I was advised to do was wait until after the final Order....sometimes you HAVE to make a stink to make changes.

Im glad you went back and re-read, but apparently you needed to be just a BIT more obnoxious. Hope you're happy now. Oh and the reason Jason and I can debate successfully is that I know he doesnt hate me like you and Carrie and others do. He might tease me, but its not the same as the out and out snark I come in for from you and your cronies. Whatever. My opinions are just as valid as any of yours.

You take things waaaaay too personally Mary. I'm sorry if you feel that Carrie & I and others hate you just because we often disagree with you. Contrary to your paranoid belief, I don't purposely set out to attack/needle/provoke you. My snark does not discriminate, and it's not always directed at you. I don't have "cronies." Just because people agree with me on an issue doesn't mean we're in a gang or something. We agree because we all feel a certain way about an issue - NOT because you don't. I can't speak for "them", but I don't automatically go the opposite way that you do just for the sake of doing so.

Exactly.

It's all or nothing with you much of the time Mary, and not everything can be that black & white, unfortunately.

Whatever Paula. I know what I (and others) have observed the minute I started coming back to these boards. I take it personal because you MADE it personal. You may deny it, but I know gang mentality when I see it, and when the same usual suspects deride me time after time, I know it goes deeper than a mere disagreement.

I dont mind people disagreeing with me. I DO mind being hounded and baited and treated like dirt. I also resent being stereotyped--I look at everything on a case by case basis, whether you believe it or not.

^ But I often disagree with you.

What am I suposed to do, NOT post in a thread if Carrie already did, so you don't think we're ganging up on you? F that. Think what you want, it's not my problem. You're acting paranoid. I'm done here, so go ahead & get your last word in.

Paranoid is thinking something is happening when it isnt. Observant is noticing when it DOES happen.

So sad Cinderfella, the shoe DOES fit.

Exactly. Exactly.

And Mary, I'm sorry but from the moment you came back to the board you started in on stuff too...you are not innocent in this. There have been MANY times when you attack or snark at someone who did not (in the instance) even deserve it, and I bit my tongue.

Then when people call you out you cry "gang mentality" but that's not the case.

Also - I'm glad this got out now, as clearly one cannot strongly disagree with you and still be friends, you're right, no great loss because I like to have debates and discussions with my friends, even when we disagree. And clearly that cannont be done with you.

There is no "gang mentality". We're all free-thinking individuals. Nobody is under the thumb of any one or two posters, and again, you've mentioned things in the past about some people being "Amber cronies" or "loyalists" when I knew that to be completely false - yet I didn't argue....

So in fact, the shoe does fit and I think the brand of shoe is paranoia.
