[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 679485, member: 11791"] Leafy, Copa... I think the biggest challenge is: [I]we are sensitive people![/I] So... slight nuances in wording will strike a chord in any one of us, for positive or for negative. And it isn't even a particular word, its... the whole context. Which suddenly pushes buttons. Just like it does in the real world. That's where my reaction came from. The same kinds of words in the same kind of context that has repeatedly been a major red flag in my life, especially since having challenging kids... Sometimes catch those subtleties and miss something else about the context that would have told me that I don't have to react. Because none of us is "perfectly" sensitive - we are more sensitive in some areas and less in others. [/QUOTE]
