Q: Why So Mean???

Ok I know some of the questions are silly but why do some people have to be so negative??? These girls come here for advise because they have no where else to turn, and people make fun of and make them feel stupid. I dont get it, if you think a question is stupid just dont answer!!!!!!!

I agree mommy I have no idea what pc's problem is but I have seem some people get pretty offended and especially to talk like that to people in the teenage forums....These girls are looking for advice and help turning to people they may be able to look up because they are uneducated or scared and to hear some of these comments coming from pc are just terrible.......They dont deserve that and personally either does anyone on these boards. Every one that I have visited she has been on there putting someone down.
Please be repectful these people depend and count on our feedback and answers....

Thank you mommy I appreciate someone else coming forward as I see alot have!

I know how it feels to be put down all of the time, when I got preg I was 15, 16 when I had her that was 7 years ago, anyways everyone was so nasty to me, hardly anyone had real advise for me. I wish I would have found a forum back then, it is nice to know some people actually care about others, so I dont like to see other people laughed at and put down, it bothers me

Hey
I have to commend mommy of 1 .. It's about time someone said something about the attitudes in here..It's like ..Sure these girls should be more responsible about there actions but by the time they get here to the forum it's to late .. Now what they need most is someone who is going to be here to help them .. Offer advice and all in all just be a good listener.. These girls are scared..Sure it's the result of their own actions but maybe the scare will teach them, that if their not pregnant now.. That they need to start using protection or abstain from sex.. But the only thing they will learn here if we turn them away is that no one cares what happens to them and they may end up pregnant if they aren't already.. Well i've spoken my peace .. Thank you mommy of 1.

And for those of you who have a negative dispostion...We don't need you here.. Your not helping anyone, only putting them down
:evil:

I may sound like a health forum but, pay attention in sex ed maybe if you dont know what can get you pregnant you aren't ready for sex.
I have no problem with hi I think I might be pregnant im going to test.
But dont ask me if I think you are, take a test.
Seriously I notice all of you that are saying this is mean have been here for like 2 mos tops

I have an idea how about if you dont want to hear these girls stories or questions you dont read them instead of being rude!.....You obviously know by the topic what will be in the forum so dont go there why go and talk down to them?? It makes no sense to me....And for your information we have plenty of cities in the u.S. That doesn't offer the best educational classes I live right next a city with what has to be the worst academic schools around and with very high poverty rates and run down schools these girls could really use some advice and guidence and pushing them away and making them feel stupid and alone will not help!

Its not that hard to be respectful or not to post...And its easy to tell it how it is without being rude or calling names!

If I didnt want to hear their stories or questions I wouldn't be here, but I think sometimes if they look around a bit they can find the answer quickly.
I dont think its rude to tell them how to help themselves.

I think people need to concentrate on helping these girls and their babies, helping their future. I am sure they came here for help, not to listening to total strangers lecturing them on what they did wrong in the past. If they are pregnant, who cares how they get pregnant, there isnt anything you can do about it. Lets concentrate on helping these young girls explore their options.

And as for sugarcoating? Being nice isn't sugarcoating. I think we all need to disregard these idiots who come here just to post negative things. They will get whats coming to them in the end. Kudos to all who try to help and do it tastefully!

Thank you pocket angel well said! I know I am just as bad at times getting on these people for being so negative I should stop after I say one thing but I have been here for only a little bit and every forum I go to these young girls are being put down and called names and that does no good!!! I am just ashamed people would go to teenage forums and treat them like that I am sure they can go in their community and get that if thats what they were looking for but they come here for guidence and support!

Thank you pocket :p

I dont think that showing someone how and asking them to help themselves is negative. I guess its a matter of opinion.
How did this turn into having a problem with teen moms? Lol

Oh I am sorry seksi...I was referring to the others in the teenage forums because they have been really cruel to these young girls I guess I probably posted my comments in the wrong forum because they both sounded similar ...........But this one actually started with 'pc" acting rude I believe................Oh who cares I was just trying to get everyone to be nice!!! It's so much better when people are nice and get along you can learn alot from each other and even make new friends.........But oh well guess everyone isnt here to be nice.......Sorry
