Hugs to everyone who has experienced this. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one.
Well, you have certainly given me something to think about, Grinity I read your reply just before I went to bed and I thought I needed to think about it before I answered. Well, I couldn't sleep very well! I'm not sure about increasing my 'vocality' of my DS's achievements. The community is relatively small and to mention it to her, well, I might as well broadcast it. I'm not sure I'm ready for the ramifications of that. I did think of a very good way to respond to the latest 'thing', and it borders on what you were talking about. So thanks.
I always worry that responding to those underhanded things makes me 'stoop to their level'...
And thank you to all those who understood the 'walk away' feeling, because I needed to know it wasn't just me who felt that way.
Will be doing a lot of thinking...
