    This was a recent topic but I just need to vent!

    I agree that anyone who recieves an invitation should RSVP, and I make it a point to do just that for all invitations I recieve. Having said that, I think that many families don't have the time, energy, desire or $$ to send their children to /or attend themselves, parties of people they don't...

    Is an R.S.V.P. too much to ask?

    I agree that people have become far less considerate of others than they used to be. On the subject of kid's parties, I don't know how old your kids are, but we had small parties for the kids (average of 4 guests, maximum of 6) when they were young. If I didn't know the parents personally...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    I really don't believe you are to blame for your child's dog bite. I wasn't there, don't have the facts, and wouldn't jump to that conclusion. I was trying to illustrate how a post can be twisted in a negative way. Sorry to put that out there and add fuel to the fire, but you really should...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    The following is an example of a post that lacks grace, or maybe it's just an inconvenient truth..... If you knew the neighbor's dog was killing birds and thought it could progress to biting a child, why would you let your 7 yr old anywhere near it? Maybe it's partially your fault for not...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    Why assume my dogs are overly spoiled (I was trying to communicate that they are well loved), or that they are difficult to have inside? They are really nice family dogs and very calm inside and outdoors. They just love being outside. It seems like you'll twist my posts to make me sound like a...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    Cynthia-I don't think the comparison of supervising dogs and children in the backyard makes sense. I'd never equate the two in any way. For the sake of discussion, because I'm getting really tired of watching my dogs so closely: Carola/Cynthia-My dogs are were both puppies of pregnant...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    This post is unneccesarily harsh. JMO.

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    I don't understand why folks assume that people who have an animal aggressive dog and struggle with how to handle it, don't care about other animals or small children. It's just plain wrong to make that leap. I am however amazed at the number of dog owners who let toddlers near their dogs...

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    Just wanted to let you know that I'm completely sympathetic. My dogs will kill animals too. It's a terrible thing to try to control. Good luck!

    Is your dog a killer, too?

    Why think about those two things? They had NOTHING to do with the OP's situation.

    EB and unwanted advertising - vent

    Not meaning to flame, but it really is true that your opinion doesn't count nor should it. It's Cathe's life, her business, her decision. Don't sweat the small stuff...... Life has enough potential problems, don't go looking for more. :)

    EB and unwanted advertising - vent

    I can understand that. I guess I don't understand the OP's objection.

    EB and unwanted advertising - vent

    Wow! It's so surprising that people have such a strong reaction to this. If Cathe continues to produce good quality workouts, I'll buy them. If she wants to help sell eggs, who cares? It doesn't affect her workouts. Maybe I don't get as personally connected as some others? I'd...

    For cat owners who let their cats outside...

    I posted this in the "Hug Your Pet" thread, but thought I'd cut and paste here. When I had cats they were allowed outside, but what happened yesterday made realize how lucky I was that my cats weren't hurt. "I'll take this time to remind cat owners how dangerous it is for their cats to be...

    Once again please hug your pet...

    So sorry to hear about your bunny!:( Hugs to you! I'll take this time to remind cat owners how dangerous it is for their cats to be outside. I have 2 large dogs who are fenced in with an electric fence in our yard. A stray cat without tags walked into our yard, and my dogs attacked it...
