I understand the sentiment, and as a mother of two handicapped kids (with no genetic cause), I could pile onto the discussion about preparredness. But since Eva_Eva has a thread on this forum where this discussion could be taken in the open, and where she could be allowed to defend herself, I don't thing it is OK to have another discussion in a different thread. Especially when it is more mocking than discussion.
Please keep things sivil.
This.
I think mocking a member here "behind their back" violates forum rule #1, Don't Be A Jerk.
Pretty sure I'm not mocking her, but I appreciate your point, gaja. I re-read my comment above and I'm going to let it stand. If anyone thinks otherwise, I'm willing to listen respectfully.
As to keeping things civil, the fact that many people have taken the time to write thoughtful comments in her journal that are based on real-life experience and a willingness to help, only to have them be rejected (and not politely) makes it perfectly okay to move their frustrations to this thread. it is patently obvious that she doesn't "get" the enormity of what she wants approval to do in any circumstance, let alone with her precarious finances. That's what this thread is for.
I appreciate your comments, HAH and gaja. I'm going to think about my response to E_E for another day, but I will not let it pass undefended.
