"Welcome to WiseWomenUnite.com -- When adult children marry and leave home, life can sometimes get more complex instead of simpler.  Being a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law can be tough.  How do we extend love and support to our mothers-in-law, adult children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren without interfering?  What do we do when there are communication problems?  How can we ask for help when we need it without being a burden?  And how do our family members feel about these issues?  We invite you to join our free forum, read some posts... and when you're ready...share your challenges and wisdom."

luise I couldn't contact you offline...

i always say great answer to someone when i like what they said. i meant it as a compliment.

i understand the importance of being careful with our words but in no way, shape, or form did I think I would cause offense with "great answer". i understand you have the ability to close my account but before I go, I just want to "publicly" let you (and everyone else) know that I didn't mean any harm. I had no idea "great answer" would offend.  i'm sorry and i wish you'll the best :(

There's no need to apologise when you feel defensive. They don't go together. I love discussion...opinion...and commenting on each others comments. It's the meat of WWU. What makes it of value is the original share...from the heart...of someone struggling. Then we share all our struggles. There's nothing hypothetical or intellectual about it. It's real..not conceptual. If you honestly don't know the difference, then a discussion board might be a better fit. You are still welcome to stay and share. Please know I locked the thread, not your membership.
