PLEASE KEEP in mind she only said the nasty thing about online advice websites when we were fighting. Three days ago my mom was cranky and
kept snapping at me to the point we had a a tiff. During the course of the fight she said; I
know you ask questions about weight and other things on the computer, these people are
not experts, I see what you do; (But she really does not see because I log out when she
comes near my computer) And of course she and I went back and forth saying nasty things
to one another. (But I like asking and getting advice on Advicenators and other websites
like Advicenators and the advice makes me feel better.) SO MY QUESTION: If you were
me (or even it happened to you) and someone criticizes the people that you get advice
from online how would you handle it? I mean would you ignore, defend it or other (and
tell me what the other is) and why

Its not that big of a deal.
besides, in moments of anger, people can just say and talk... haha!
just ignore it, its your best bet. don't wanna really push your moms buttons even more...
although if its just simple converation with other people, say however you feel! whatever you believe... just look at what you said. =) <3
MommyMurry answered Thursday May 24 2007, 3:10 pm: Well I would either tell them that I like hearing other people's opinion and that's there no harm in listening to what someone else has to say and that it really doesn't matter what you think about it because it has nothing to do with you. BUT!!! Because we are talking about your MOTHER you cannot say that!!! Just either tell her that you think there's no harm in getting advice from other people because most of the people we get advice from over the course of our life are not experts. Or you can just ignore it so you won't cause another argument. But whatever you do make sure you stay respectful. [ MommyMurry's advice column | Ask MommyMurry A Question ]
