No, no. Nothing of that was aimed at you, and I didn't think of you when I wrote it. You just share your experiences. My statements weren't aimed at anyone. There are trends here, like in any community, so something I once noticed might not happen any more; people here don't talk about milestones so much any more, for instance, though it was all the rage for a while. I might also simply be wrong on a number of points. In any event, the main idea I wanted to convey was that the same forces can affect us all.

I can understand a desire not to let this become like other websites. Without naming obvious ones, I've seen how they can get to be like the local playground, opinionated confrontational types and all. It's a shame that your son can't be admitted to DYS.
