But I don't let everything offend me. If someone doesn't like my religion? Not my problem. They don't like I have long hair or my kid does? Again, that's not a reflection on me but on them. <br /><br />I DO get rather riled up when their offense becomes a personal attack on me, my family, or my child. I have had people who are offended that my child has long hair get right in my face. THEN I get pissed off. <br /><br />But post something I don't like on Facebook? Scroll by or hide it. Don't like a page? Just unlike it if it's the whole page. Not everything needs to be drama but a lot seem to just love the drama.

We, as individuals, have the ability to choose our responses to what is presented...this is called self-control. Just as a toddler is taught to use the toilet, a child is taught to share toys, etc, to be a member of polite society, there are standards that must be taught. It is a reflection on society as a whole, that there is this abundance of people being "offended" all of the time, just as it is that other standards of behavior have been allowed to slide downward.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096563285695929457noreply@blogger.com
