[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 319274, member: 7083"] Marg, I've been trying to teach that to my daughter her entire life. I don't only preach it, I live it. She is not interested. The fact remains that she will not look at how her actions effect others. In fact, she blames all of her misery on how everyone - the world - treats her. She's only interested in how things effect her. Period. Then she somehow finds things like this that fit her warped perspective and, thus, has justification for her behavior and her skewed thought process. Reading the synopsis of that book made me feel physically ill. It was written by someone like her, for people like her. Oh, and she announced a couple of weeks ago that she's a misanthrope. It wasn't a year ago that she was crying because she was so miserable because she didn't have any friends. So, she decided that she was a misanthrope as a defense mechanism, I guess. She has so much disdain for others and treats people like dirt. GN - it would be anarchy if everyone followed those teachings, wouldn't it? If everyone is the most important thing in the universe and if everyone did not suppress their natural human nature, what a chaotic world we would live in. [/QUOTE]
