Maybe it's just that I got lucky being a big kid myself, but communication always flows well after playing some video games together, sharing music, or just goofing around. I hope they grow up to be bridge builders. They've inspired me more than once to take up my tools and try again already. :)Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11810721515248103148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-38846792297784083062019-08-20T07:02:00.551-04:002019-08-20T07:02:00.551-04:00Thank you MaryThank you MaryRommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11810721515248103148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-32085601877029044812019-08-20T07:01:39.863-04:002019-08-20T07:01:39.863-04:00I may as well run into a wall to save time and get...I may as well run into a wall to save time and get the headache over with, than go the slow route towards headache land by engaging with the ignorant.Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11810721515248103148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-10743445180866398202019-08-20T06:59:52.881-04:002019-08-20T06:59:52.881-04:00LOL, at the "how can I make you hang up"...LOL, at the "how can I make you hang up".

It is very hard to build bridges with individuals 'programmed' this way. This is a big problem. Parents and educators have got to start talking about COMMUNICATION: how it works and what it can achieve - because without the ability to give and receive communication (to communicate) there will be a lot few bridges built.Wendy Bourkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475940407969993348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-28202012741042886232019-08-18T19:30:51.027-04:002019-08-18T19:30:51.027-04:00What truth!

It reminds me of the difference between good faith "have you thought about what you're saying" arguments and their opposite "how can I make you hang up vowing never to speak to me again" trolling.
