Guest guest Posted April 26, 2001 Report Share Posted April 26, 2001 I think a lot of the time people just make comments like that because they don't know what else to say,either they have something else on their minds or they just have no original lines of conversation.I think Lynda hit the nail on the head with there being a big difference between unwanted and unplanned just because a baby wasn't planned doesn't mean it's not going to be wanted every bit as much as all the other children(however many there may be).When people make annoying comments take a deep breath and say to yourself.. " well they can't help it if they have no imagination " lol and change the subject to philosophy or something. Take care Sonjia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 I did apologize for my words earlier. I responded wrongly because I was tired of seeing people giving snide remarks rather than constructive criticism when someone disagreed. You yourself in your reply to Austin earlier basically all but called any that think that we can triage idiots. Yes it was done w/o being so direct but that was the jest of it. I have been a member here for a few years and lurked for years before. I have stayed only because at times this is the first place I learn of proposed changes. Unlike many of the other new people that do not post I am not young, almost as old as many of the dino medics, nor easily intimidated if I hold an unpopular viewpoint. I am ashamed I stooped to the level of some that had me frustrated. And again I apologize. I do ask that from here on forward we all reread what we write and think about how it could affect the image of our profession and also those that we hope will move it forward. I have no problem with problems with my ideals being pointed out but it is wrong to be told you are stupid to even think such an ideal would work. It is even more frustrating to have newer to EMS people just parrot what the older more experienced say. > > > > > > > > > > > > I am tired of the attacking and making snide rude remarks toward > > > > anyone with a different opinion.
