Maybe, perhaps, but I think my family has a lot more guts than I do, to allow themselves to be open to all sorts of exposure and criticism, and some of the truly horrid things being said on these boards about them. I couldn't open myself up to that, and it's been hard enough seeing it happen to them. Yes, my family, my family, they are always my family, they make mistakes, they screw up, they love intensely, they fight with all they've got, they don't sit back and let things just happen to them. I am the most passive one I think. I have always been the eldest sister, the mother-hen, it hurts to see them knocked around like this, but then again, they know what they were getting into when they started it, so I'm sure they have the brawn to stick it out and take the flack, gain knowledge from the advice and ignore some of the insipid comments made by people under their hidden disguise online.
