No one has to hear any "innermost thoughts" if they don't want to. I think I've read 2.5 of these types of threads the entire time I've been here.
Because she is excited and wants to talk about it? Why does it have to be a therapy session? It can be nothing more than excited individuals wishing to share and finding tips/advice on the fly.

You seem to enjoy stating the obvious and missing the point at the same time. Par for the course for you, hmm?
Glad you're white knighting the happy silent majority on GC who hate "cutting remarks" and enjoy happy fun recruitment threads.
GC should stop encouraging recruitment threads. They're a bad idea for everyone involved. And I will also note, since it was deleted from this thread before, that many of the posters pulling for parent posted threads are parents who have posted one or MANY threads for their own children. Moderators included. Funny that when the mods are criticized for the things they've posted in recruitment threads, they delete the posts involved - I'm speaking about carnation specifically here - and yet they post here about how gee, it's totally cool for parents to post. You know, just be more careful than they were, or something.
It's hypocritical and a circle jerk.
