Erm - I hardly call that a flaming!!!! Or do you think you get "flamed" if people are just disagreeing with you!

A tougher skin is required - and an open mind :)

caughtinanet · 30/08/2011 13:35

You're going to get lots of posters telling you that starting one thread about another is very bad form but that aside I don't think you got flamed on the other thread - people disagreed with you and you got angry straight away without explaining your reasoning.

It's up to you which forum you post on and you should choose the one which best suits your personality, if its not this one so be it.

That, my dear, was merely a slight wind burn. It was absolutely not a flaming. Now this thread, this might become a flaming Grin

Controlled crying is something a lot of people feel strongly about so no surprise you got a 'reaction'.
Don't get too upset though.

MorelliOrRanger · 30/08/2011 13:36

huh - I don't get why you think you were flamed?

So you want your 11 month old to eat her meal before her pudding and someone said that was wishful thinking that she'd understand. So what different way of parenting that's all.

Icelollycraving · 30/08/2011 13:37

You call that a flaming?!!! Don't be so ridiculous,starting a thread about it is attention seeking,perhaps nm is better for you hun.

HowlingBitch · 30/08/2011 13:37

Hardly a flaming now was it? More akin to sitting in a small room with the heating on IMO.

Stormwater · 30/08/2011 13:37

Just read the other thread, completely agree with the poster there. You are acting bizarrely and setting weird, randon, unhelpful food rules as well as (IMO) using CC for far too young a child, for really odd reasons. There, is that what you wanted to get out of starting a new thread? Hope my opinion helps!

PerryCombover · 30/08/2011 13:38

Thread about a thread

Wasn't a flaming was just a different opinion which was what you were after surely?

Insomnia11 · 30/08/2011 13:38

I think the OP was fairly questioned/criticised about her methods on that thread, but probably more rudely/directly than would happen in real life. I think generally on MN and other discussion boards on the internet, people need to stop and think whether they would say what they've posted in the course of a face-to-face conversation. If not, then it's probably a good idea not to write that post.

ConstanceNoring · 30/08/2011 13:38

Call that a flaming?

Stick around, you ain't seen nuh'in

AuntiePickleBottom · 30/08/2011 13:38

why bring it here, if the thread (and i haven't read it) has been nasty, spitful comment hit the report button

MorelliOrRanger · 30/08/2011 13:38
