My mum just texted me to say that tomorrow there is a documentary on BBC3 at 9pm called, "Is Breast Best?".

I predict a bunfight! Grin

"You have no right to comment on my life, my time, what i spend my time doing, or make ANY sweeping jusdgemental statements about autism. Today was not a good day to try it, either."

No-one has made any "sweeping judgemental statements about autism" and you know it.

Ah I do like that enjoy your FFing then peeps . YOu can try to make it an insult if you wish, I find it sad you are so narrow minded, it's a waste of a perfectly good brain.

And yet Leonie you have made so many sweeping statements about others.

I don't think I have come across a more delusional poster.

kungfu No not at all. I was more referring to earlier on Leonie had mentioned a long the lines of her not being blunt and that telling someone the truth or correcting what they say is not being mean.
I found it interesting when you took her up on her 'too busy with life' statement that you received such a vitriolic attack.

Does that make more sense?

Totally - I got that from your first clarifying post! This thread is not making much sense so I wanted to check!

I have explained twice in what way I have found your posts offensive and I will not do so again and please stops shouting at me.

namechange100 · 14/04/2011 15:25

Leonie you the one that brought up your RL situation and chose to share the demands of your children. This is why people have commented on them.

You dont seem to understand that what you really are writing in a public forum and not just think this stuff cause and affect no matter how well bf your DC's are you will never teach them how to respect others with an attitude like this, which is far worse than being a ff thickie.

BTW ff here and I am a teacher - oh dear I soon wont be able to keep up woth all the ff fed students!!!

leonie I don't think that was the implication. I don't think anyone here has made light or would make light of SN of any type. I think you need to take a step back.

Kungfu Glad thats cleared up then! Grin

TandB · 14/04/2011 15:26

the implication is that obviously autism isnt that hard to deal with if i am on ehre with my precious time. To which i reiterate: FUCK OFF

No. That wasn't the implication at all. You might make posts with spiteful sub-texts. I don't.

There was no implication. Simply a question about why, against a backdrop of difficulty family circumstances that you have highlighted more than once, you keep devoting time to something that you say is not particularly important to you and which is causing distress and offence to others. If you have such limited time, why keep banging away at something so contentious?

Tiktok devotes a lot of time to this issue because it is important to her and because she is helping people.

"The post was CLEARLY ripping the piss out of me for wasting my time on MN since my life is so busy, therefore autism cant be that bad."

Absolute rubbish and you know it.

GeekCool · 14/04/2011 15:28

Leonie you might have attacked by name but you do by generalisation.

Feel free to see what others think. There was no link like that and you know it.

I find it astonishing you can find an insinuation which wasn't there, yet you cannot see how saying 'your breasts and heart ache for FF babies' and you 'feel sad' for all of them, is fairly insulting and inflammatory.

TandB · 14/04/2011 15:30

"Kungfu i did attack by name and directly after her disgusting posts belittling autism, and would do so again."

Again, absolute rubbish and you know it.

xstitch · 14/04/2011 15:31

I don't see how asking you to show compassion to others and trying to explain how you could present the facts in a nicer way is a nasty attack but you seem to think the way you have made myself and other feel is entirely acceptable. From posts I am not the only one who has read your posts this way. At no point did I make any nasty comment about special needs.

GeekCool · 14/04/2011 15:31

I think you are being seriously unreasonable now. At no point did KungFu belittle autism and I think you are a dick for saying otherwise if I'm honest. Calm down and re-read.

Namechange100 - the WHO guidelines recommend bf for two years for excellent reasons - it may be of interest to you to help you understand extended breastfeeding - the health and emotional benefits for an extended bf child are quite a lot, which is why I am bf my second (first was too until nearly two) until she is two. I had horrendous problems in the beg with bf and hope to train as a support bf counsellor soon to help others especially as I know how hard it is and how badly help is needed. I wish HV's would give more info on how bloody hard bf is and how relentless it is, how it takes time to build supply and also to highlight the problems some ladies can have that can result in bf not being possible - I think if this were done women could feel more confident and informed when they have bf problems x

Do threads go away when they reach 1,000 posts? If so, this is my contribution to that milestone.

xstitch · 14/04/2011 15:33

Oh goody even more people to tell me what a shit I am.

GeekCool · 14/04/2011 15:34

leonie fine if it's an honest answer, can you not see how it is offensive?
You won't link because you KNOW full well there is nothing offensive by KungFu about SN.
I'm not making fun, I'm asking you to see that your comments can be seen as unreasonable
