Having 4 parents.

See, now I don't know how to respond to you because I think you think that syntax is a group of something.

Yes and were talking a great deal about what you think I think, I'm done with this clowning around, I've been patient, I've tried to clarify many many times, any misunderstanding.

Yet you insist on digging deeper away from the issue, from my viewpoint its passive aggressive desire for confrontation and that's all I'll say of this.
 
I'm out numbered, being attacked for things completely unrelated to the actual question at hand.

Its not so much that youre outnumbered, its more that youre taking on every comment thats been posted. Not every post warrants a response.
If you want to stay on topic, do that. Dont respond to the posts about spelling and grammar and instead focus on the topic you wish to discuss.

I'll agree that it got out of hand, I'm a patient person and will make an effort to clarify and answer any question especially about any misunderstanding, but some folk wish to exploit this aspect of my nature.
 
Well if you've clearly stated you have nothing to say, move along. ITs' not rocket science.

I apologize if it's turned into such a disaster for you, but my idea didn't cause your sitauation to be such a mess and I'm sorry if that's how you feel.

What disaster? :confused:

The one where I've been divorced and re-married, and my two beautiful, healthy daughters are doing great? Or, is it the one where I've had some challenges along the way but have worked hard to get through them? For most people this is called "life". In another 20 years or so, you may have some "life" of your own to share.

Please help me figure out what the hell you're talking about because you're making less sense all the time.
 
Dude you really have no idea what pysc is all about, the actual practices are about as far from actual science as song writing. It's an art at best. This isn't even a real topic of debate to be honest, if you have any idea how common it is for a shrink to screw up a diagnosis.

I'm not saying pyschology of it isn't a science, but the actual practice has very meager abilities.

I've only been studying it for the past six years, I really have no idea what psych is about. :rollno:
 
I'm 21. Don't have kids, never been with anyone who had kids, don't have any close-ish friends with kids, and I think the OP is off his rocker. It's one thing to have your own opinions, but it's a completely different thing to reject out of hand the opinions of folks who are much more experienced in the subject than you are. It's like attending a class where there's that one student who constantly argues with the teacher.
 
The OP asks questions to which he already has pre-determined answers in his head. When he gets answers from people who post in the thread, he finds one reason or another to dismiss the answers *and* the people who gave them. The fact that he doesn't care about what other, perhaps more informed, people think is additionally reflected in the side discussions about grammar and syntax. No, don't confuse him with the facts.

OP, one of the tricks to getting along in the world is to learn to have dialog and actually listen to what other people are trying to tell you, especially when you've asked for it. If you can't maintain a reasonably respectful exchange of ideas with strangers (remarkably intelligent and coherent strangers, IMO) on the internet, how can you maintain a respectful exchange of ideas with someone with whom you may become extremely intimate?

No wonder you're planning for divorce.

As for the rest of us... well, I'm not going to speak for the rest of everybody, just me. I feel like I'm feeding a troll, so will bow out.
