When I was little, my brother and I often fought, both physically and verbally. (Thank goodness we have grown out of that - he was an easy target as a kid, but he grew up and became a Penn State Linebacker-for real!) Sometimes the fighting would get to be so bad and so involved that we just couldn't figure out a way to stop. So my Mom would call a "start-over" in which we both did exactly that. We just drew a line in time, putting the fight completely behind us and beginning fresh with one another.<P>It seems to me like we have gotten so sucked into this quarreling that we just don't know how to stop. I know that's the way I have felt, and I'll bet that's the way most everybody else is feeling to. So how about we have a "start over" right now. Put everything from the past couple of days behind us and move on with the forum.<P>The really sad part is that we have all allowed things to deteriorate to a point where nobody's helping anybody else. We can still change that. And we can choose to simply ignore the insulting posts. I have a hard time doing that too, but I'm willing to try if everybody else will. Remember anow and how she disappeared after nobody responded to her last post?<P>So how about it ladies and gents...<P>Want to start over?<P>cd

I think that is a good idea that everyone should agree to. Remember the purpose of this forum.

Let's do it!!

I am already at such a hurtful point in my situation that I am already ignoring the hurtful posts. I'm all about protecting me these days, so I am all for it!

I agree- I have been ignoring the posts that are nasty and unhelpful. But I can start over as well.

Come on every one!! We need to just do as CD said earlier, START OVER! These LW's are throwing out the bait, we are taking it, and they are just reeling us in, OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!!!! It worked before with ANOW, let's do it again. We survived that one, we can survive others. I just want to get back to what this board is about. I have noticed a couple other newbies have shown up, and we need to concentrate on their legitamite questions and concerns, instead of showing these other 2 the time of day. They are just repeating themselves using different words. Let them be, and lets help those who need it, and are seriously looking for it.<P>Tigger

I'm willing.<BR>I just have a hard time not responding but I will try to do better.<BR>Jtigger

I am sorry I wont say no more either, to me the way one answers for the other is begining to be quit funny. They are amazingly something I just havent figured it out yet. with love flowerseed
