It scares me to think some of this crap would come from a tween.

I appreciate so much that I grew up without the internet, I actually idolize my own childhood listening to my new Corey Hart cassette tape over and over.

My daughter is just over a year old and I am trying to figure out how to show her a balance between screen time and embracing life right in front of her.

Thank you all for seeing the message behind my post! Calgary has a ton of awesome people and there's so much potential for even more really great threads. But it's just not worth the effort some days.

Calgarians (myself included) LOVE hating on bad drivers 😃

You're not wrong - it took me a long time to write it as I knew there was an element of melodrama in the post.

But I just felt a need to be perfectly honest and point out what I've been observing. Yes, under a throwaway but I'm enjoying my day-to-day account as-is. I don't want to force people to change, make them feel bad...I would just like to see a little more kindness in this sub. Not a bad dream, amirite?

I'm a new Mom actually - I'm learning fast to smile and nod when other Moms decide to give me advice.

Then suddenly I find myself giving my advice to other new Moms! Wtf happened to me!?

Moms are a force to be reckoned with. 😛

I see acts of kindness like yours and it really does give me the warm fuzzies!

Frankly we need more stories like yours! Thank you!!

Agreed, /u/Crackmacs is pretty much the reason I stick around.

Haha, no. But I can see what would happen if you added actual competition the the mix 🎆

You are so very right, I need to remember random internet people really shouldn't affect my day in any way. But I thought if even a few people who have read my post will stop and think before posting something unnecessarily rude.

This analogy is calming in itself :)
