I read nearly every day, but don't post much, because Miss KT has pretty much shed the difficult child antics and has become a delightful young woman. However, I was here early on, and left because I felt uncomfortable with the "advice" given by another member. It didn't fit my situation, and I felt more judged than anything else, so I left for several years, and when I came back, it was, as advertised, a soft place to land.
I think we need to remember that the new people posting are probably pretty raw, emotionally, spiritually, maybe physically, and they haven't learned to take what they need and leave the rest. They don't know what they need right off, it's too overwhelming. I remember how I felt when I left the board...defeated, because it was one more place that didn't understand.
