OverworkedMom: Don’t start up with any poster. Read what the opening post of the thread is, read the responses and respond accordingly. You will know (sometime within minutes) that someone disagrees with you. Just be prepared that you may have to defend what you wrote. I use the following adage from the late Sen. Daniel Moynihan: “Everyone is entitled to their own opinion; no one is entitled to their own set of facts”. If you think that a poster is misstating a fact, don’t be afraid to say so. Be prepared to defend your opinion. Some of us post things and after reading what others say will retract if the other posters logic is better; sometimes we dig in our heels and stubborn. Also realize that men and women approach issues from very different perspectives.
