So I applied for a sears card and we'll see if I get approved or not, and that means that all those jeans I bought for her off of the jcpenny website needs to go back to the catalog store. But when I get the shirts in the mail we'll be keeping them.

I am sorry if my response came across as abusive or harsh. It was not my intent. Please forgive me for my indiscretion.

The thing of it is, is that her posts usually DO receive well thought out replies. I tried to.

But, she then elaborates and expands on the crisis of the moment and it all becomes so convoluted.

I dont think that people are trying to be abusive I really dont. But she pushes buttons with her constant posts, and then, her refusal to take any sane and rational response as any thing other than an attack.

"You can free things from alien or accidental laws, but not from the laws of their own nature. Do not go about encouraging triangles to break out of the prison of their three sides; if a triangle breaks out of its three sides, its life comes to a lamentable end." Chesterton

I think that about sums it up. This is who she is and we are trying to change it. This is her life right?

I just wish she would post in off topic, if she wants to go on and on about her life, then insult those of us who call her on the carpet about refusing to accept damn good advice.

There is an off topic board and a blog where you can pour your soul out to everyone, but no, she fights to remain exactly where she is in life, while posting every nuance on general discussion.

God bless you girl, I hope God opens your eyes to a new way of being.

I know a good book, How to Win Friends and Influence People.

I suggested to BPP that she posts in off topic and it resulted in a not so nice hug and me being removed from her friends list, it seems she doesn't want to listen to advice from anyone who doesn't agree with her ways

Bottom line....
While we are responding to the MANY frivolous posts by Princess, we are not helping those who truly have BP issues that warrant our attention.

Princess, Grow up. You are the mom. Make her wear the jeans you already bought. Otherwise she's going to turn into a spoiled brat.

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
