actually, I said it in sarcasm. she said to me that she is certain that she understood perfectly what amandalouise was saying and that I obviously could not because of the fact that she was hearing it from a 14yo perspective. even despite the fact that amandalouise came and said 'no, that is not what I meant.'

so she is consciously choosing to interpret things in a way they are not intended.

I don't think that she is actually unable to see that she is not being treated differently. in fact, I know that if she were to go and read some similar threads in this forum, she'd find that she is being treated the same as anyone else. and amandalouise has given nearly the same response to other people who have asked similar questions.

and perhaps you misinterpreted my sarcasm as anger, but I assure you I am not angry. I was simply trying to let her know that she was getting offended over nothing. amandalouise was not being disrespectful to her and was not discounting her due to her age.

miss manic obviously could use some help and some insight. but if she is going to fly off the handle over some perceived disrespect and disregard and be unwilling to accept that it may not have been intended that way, then how is she going to get any insight or help?
