[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 158964, member: 2211"] I can't possibly be alone in my feelings, but as a parent of a difficult child, married to a slight difficult child and being an ex-difficult child, having several extended family members who are either difficult child or just plain crazy....I think I am at risk for 'reading' into things too much at times. I have posted a time or two and then gone back and either deleted it or thanked God that it had slipped off the front page.....mainly on days when I'm feeling blue, ignored, or just plain cruddy. I enjoy reading everyone's posts. I will admit that I pretty much stay on the PE or Watercooler boards, however I do sometimes pop onto other boards if I see something in particular. I don't post to every thread, obviously, for if I did, I'd be on the board all the time, right? We all know how that is. But, I will scan the threads and if I see one that hasn't been responded to I will try and just send some support. Sometimes all a person needs is to know that they've been heard and it matters. Not all who post are looking for advice or words of wisdom - sometimes they just need to have their feelings validated and to feel as if at least one person out there understands. I love this board for it's diverse group of members. We all come from different walks of life, backgrounds and exist in all sorts of situations; and we're spread out all over the world - How cool is that? I love that! Each person brings his/her unique perspective and level of support and that's what keeps things thriving. [/QUOTE]
