I never got into any of the debates back then although I read all of them. I used to think "do people really care that passionately about this stuff?". But, I guess some do. I remember coming here to post about one of my twins getting arrested for a DWI. I was in pain. I needed some sympathy like I'd seen other posters get here. What I got was pages of posts by people who wanted to come and string my son up by his thumbs. He and we were being punished enough. I was looking for some compassion. I sincerely hope to find a new breed of posters here. I am still overwhelmed by the posters who responded about my poor sister and nephew.
