I must say in all reality, No & Yes.

The No is that I have several posts where I have received so many suggestions, helpful ways of thinking, support in explaining what I have been going through, & ideas in how to cope with it all....so many wonderful people I really appreciate.....and I have read many other posts by others that have followed the same path.

Yes, I have noticed bickering & other annoying things going on..but I have also noticed that these situations involve BOTH sides continuing their actions. I experienced a similar situation when I first joined PC when my response wasn't acceptable......at that time, I totally backed away from that situation without saying another word...I kept it that way so as not to continue the situation....no explainations, no sorrys (because I meant what I had said), but I dropped it completely & refused to get sucked up into the crys for sympathy or the need to defend myself when I realized I was involved. At times the concept "silence is golden" is the best way to put things back into the balance we need here at PC.

I am sorry that I never see things as black or white....in this environment there are many experiences going on at the same time...both good & bad...thus not a yes or no answer.
