Like you said, I think ...This is such a tough one. Like you said, I think it all comes down to sensitivity. That is the difference between me hearing a story and being totally ok with it and feeling angry and vulnerable. I tend to think that things shared via email should only go to those for whom you are CERTAIN it is ok. I guess there also needs to be more awareness- the way we are working, as a culture, to have more awareness about race, class, gender, sexuality, and ability- about infertility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808993482648379618.post-63886901538455108822008-10-28T16:57:00.000-04:002008-10-28T16:57:00.000-04:00I have a "friend" who insists on sending me pictur...I have a "friend" who insists on sending me pictures of her child. Such as his first birthday, even after I gracefully excused myself from going, and told her why (hello! Too hard after the loss of your child). So, she was so nice as to send me the pictures so I didn't miss a thing.

Whe...I'm one of those people who can't be pleased. When people share their cute baby stories with me, I get upset about their insensitivity. However, when they don't tell me anything, I get upset, again, because I think they are pitying me. I'm a hard one to please.<BR/><BR/>I truly admire your ability to protect your experience and keep it private. I always end up saying too much to people and then regretting it.kirkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05331709444353352373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808993482648379618.post-30502714218478062132008-10-19T21:34:00.000-04:002008-10-19T21:34:00.000-04:00Kid stories fall under the category of "thing you'...Kid stories fall under the category of "thing you're dying to share but know are really only interesting to you and not fair to subject others to."

Sometimes - often - this society amazes me. Not in a good way.)R.E.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07372653169723969854noreply@blogger.com
