I tend to use personal experiences as examples or questions that bring about thought that is not in the line of thinking that goes withbthebdirection of the poster.
I'm with Tripping & Gus....in now going to continue to read without saying something when I see the person hurting themselves or destroying their life.....& give them a "poor baby" reply. Yep some report....most don't. I take being honest in a kind way. If I can't figure out how I don't botherntonreply at all.......& then there are some who counter EVERYTHING You say with their reason for WHY....just like I used to do worth my psychologist before I was finally able to break down the wall. After so long....I just don't bother any longer...not worth my time or effort to try & get them to understand....can only say the same thing so many ways before you realize it's a WASTE OF TIME.
