That’s how you took being told to stay away from my kids and the statement that they are already creeped out by people like you? People who can’t handle being told their parenting advice/perscriptiveness and proclivity for labelling strangers as un-fit/inexperienced/ignorant parents is un-wanted?
An apology for a statement of my personal stance and a fact about my kids’ demeanors isn’t going to happen. Stop using strangers’ statements of trust/distrust as an evaluation of your own overall trustworthiness, for starters. I don’t trust myself around anyone’s kids more than their parents trust me, so why should I apologize for not seeing you as an exception to that? The fact you would apparently expect such is the instigator of my misgivings.
Overall trust isn’t something to expect or request, and versus the children of another person or “children in general” that goes infinitely more-so.
On the basis of the comment you replied to, of course I did. I said nothing to warrant that and it took me by surprise. All I said was those parents are probably the majority. Fair enough that you disagreed, but that last line wasn’t necessary at all. That by the way was where I mistook you for OP.
already creeped out by people like you
You don’t know me, as I don’t know you. That’s part of why I apologised to you for my assumptions. I based those on the way you were replying to me.
for a statement of my personal stance
So, you still think I’m untrustworthy around minors, is that what you’re saying? I don’t think that of you. That matters here because others see what we post. Nothing I’ve said warrants that.
Stop using strangers statements…
Not sure where I did this, but anyway.
not seeing you as an exception to that
the fact you would apparently expect
Well it’s not offered so it doesn’t matter, but no, it was asked with no more intent than mine was given…politeness and mutual respect, despite the fact you’ve admitted you sought to provoke.
I don’t expect it and I don’t want it, now. These kinds of insults are pretty shithouse which, along with the fact I value this space and the people in it, I gave mine.
