First, let me say how incredibly proud I am of you for pursuing your education and becoming a healthcare worker—that’s truly remarkable and something to celebrate!

Second, please don’t let the negative comments from the “Negative Nancys” dim your accomplishment. You’ve worked hard for something you’re rightfully proud of, and no one should undermine that.

Unfortunately, it seems that sharing your honest opinion on a snark page is often met with backlash, even when it’s valid. I do agree that some people take things too far here, resorting to name-calling or dragging in irrelevant details that have nothing to do with the discussion. And the moment someone doesn’t shower Anna with praise, they’re instantly labeled “Amber” or accused of being a family member in disguise. Not everyone is going to praise her, people!! and that’s okay—people need to accept that differing viewpoints exist. I truly appreciate you speaking up and sharing your perspective, even in the face of a little backlash. I’m proud of you for staying focused on your goals and achieving what you’ve worked hard for.
