Only asking that you not put your judgments on me, as in saying "We all have our own rock bottoms," and ". . .none of us just told our kids to leave." Both of those statements are not helpful. The first is assuming I am heading towards "rock bottom." That's a judgment, whether you admit it or not - otherwise, you would not have wrote that specific thing.
The second statement about "telling our kids to leave," insinuates that I claimed that people did that, and I didn't . . . so that is also a judgment.
You are both basically saying that you will not refrain from making those kinds of judgmental statements (by saying you'll refrain from commenting on my threads).
I don't understand why you can't just give me space to be me - I am not hunting others down to tell them how they are doing it wrong or that they will hit rock bottom. There are guidelines against these very things.
I would never presume to know what's going on with you and your kids or family and I don't get the pressure to conform.
