athenab1984`s poll Show results | Hide results


Other-poll poll Would you be a little offended or upset? ~ Old co-worker of mine left a reply comment on my facebook about my daughter. She said ` you`re daughter is so big too, she`s adorable. She`s so white, like a little white girl. She needs some color`. ~ how would you react to this? She is not a close friend either, juts an aquaintance.

im shocked someone would have the nerve to say something like that and not think they were being cheeky! I would respond to it all.

Kind of rude but maybe she is just a little dippy & does not realize that it was rude? Ignore the ignorant and rise above. I think your daughter is beautiful! :)

ThatIs so rude, esp. since you dont know her that well. But i was looking at my friends baby and She is Latino and so is her husband the baby is `white` and someone left a comment sim. to the one she left you. I thought that was rude. I notice that when we go to the pool that the Latinos say comments to each other like that. I am like how rude. Since you arent friends it was way out of line. Your baby is adorable any how. Thats why If i dont know you upclose and personal I am not accepting you to be my friend on FB. I have all kinds of people from HS asking I ignore them and they even have asked again.

That`s not very nice of her. I hate it when people talk like they know better. I`d respond in a rude way `I think a tan looks very bad on you. You need to slow down so you look more beautiful just like my daughter who has the most wonderful white pale skin`.

athenab1984 (923.5 days ago)
Hey..I know my daughter is light skinned. That to me makes her gorgeous..because she has dark dark hair. Anyway, I didn`t get pissed off, I just thoguht it was wierd since I am always complimenting her daughter, she could have left a nice compliment, lol.

i get the need color comment all the time as a pastey white girl. Not knowing the context it was in, like is your daughter just pale or are you black and she is very pale and she was trying to say shes not `black enough` or something? Cause the last part would be rude. Pale people always get told they need some sun, I guess people think its funny???

hey im a little white girl who could use some color!! whats so wrong with that?? ignore her, she doesnt think before she speaks, or writes.

armymom (923.5 days ago)
I don`t know if I`d be offended.. my son is mixed (half white, half hispanic) and I have white friends, black friends, and brown friends (lol)... they all have their own oppinion on my son`s color and it doesn`t bother me what they think.. most people think he`s got beautiful olive-toned skin from his daddy and then there are a few who think he`s very light skinned considering he`s mixed. But like I said, I probably wouldn`t have thought too much about the comment.. maybe just a funny face and a shrug... whatever.

RowanSkysMom (923.5 days ago)
I`d delete her...that`s rude!

Lindz (923.5 days ago)
that`s weird.. but if u dont see this person regularly.. i would just let it slide... no point in stirring up crap!

athenab1984 (923.5 days ago)
thanks mommy2lucas..=)

canadababy (923.5 days ago)
It`s a weird comment, but it wouldn`t bother me...what`s the point of getting annoyed about it? You`re co-worker is just a weirdo, I`ve had a co-worker leave weird comments too, just need to shrug it off :)

mommy2lucas (923.5 days ago)
That is very rude. That`s just something you don`t do, especially to the mother of the child. I`m sure she didn`t mean it to be in a rude way but still. I think your daughter is gorgeous and beautiful eyes!

cncmom (923.5 days ago)
VERY RUDE!!

athenab1984 (923.5 days ago)
By the way, my reaction was (eyebrow raise)..wow, that`s kind of rude.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
