i am sorry to hear that highhill, but you dont know my grandfather...? like ive said before, no one likes him, not even his best friend. i was talking to his 'best friend' at equifest, and he pretty much sl****d him off right before my eyes to my mum and dad and they completely agreed. i love my grandfather to bits that is nice (everyone does and has a lot of friends indeed) he has been rushed to hospital tonight, because he has 2 types of cancer and he is rapidly detirorating due to it. i am devestated, and so worried that something bad may happen over the weekend whilst i am away with school to normandy.

I am entitled to my opinion, the only support you are receiving are from your friends who like you are all children, not one adult has offered you any support for your so call 'bit of a giggle' thread. When you grow up and read your posts as an adult you will see exactly why they are selfish and disrespectful, I wish I was lucky enough to still have my grandparents alive. I was taught from a very young age to respect my elders. If you dont like that adults are commenting on your thread then you should have put this in the junior area. No one is bullying you, if you dont like people not agreeing with you then dont post on an open forum. This is all very one sided as your grandad has not had the opportunity to come on here and express his side of the story.

I actually think this post is a bit of a cry for help, although OP say's it's a giggle, i think she is upset and frustrated that her grandfather doesn't want to spend time with her.
Remember, she is only 16 and to me it sounds like a typical teenage rebelious post in which she really feels very pushed out.
My father never came to shows to watch when i was a child, i was very quick to say i didn't care or mind but underneath i was dying for him to come.
We all seek approval from our elders and when we don't get it we go on the deffensive.

I agree to a certain extent, my father never took any interest in me when it came to horses, my mum did because she worked at the local riding school when I was a child, but now she isnt interested in the slightest and will even go to great lengths to change the subject when I start talking about horses, however nothing excuses coming onto an open forum and slating an elder member of the family, that is something I would never do, I am sure it is a cry for help from MandM but there are ways of wording things |

My mother is a total baggage and I could write reams on here. However, let us have some respect for family and for ourselves and keep family matters within the family.
Perhaps I shall ask your grandad to take a little look and he can give us his view of the situation.

forgive me if I am wrong, but I thought this was a 'moaners area' where people generally go to have a bit of a moan about things that annoy them. If you look at the other post in this section there are other people - and some of them are adults!!- moaning about people in their lives in some form or another. And HORROR- they mainly get supportive replies. So why, because this girl is only 16, does she get slated?  And I hasten to add that I am an adult....... |

I am not slating her because she is 16 I am slating her for what she has written, I would give the same response to anyone who came on here slating a member of their family like this, at the end of the day she is only a child and should show respect to her adults. Yes this is a moaners area but you cannot expect to post on an open forum and expect everyone to agree with your posts, that would make for a very boring world and forum, if I dont agree with something I will put my response, as an open forum I am aloud to put across my point of view |

so desktop, you're idea of a 'interesting' world is trying to tell me that i am selfish and upsetting me quite badly... to be quite honest, i find that rather immature and irresponsible coming from an adult like yourself, and your telling me that i am the one who should grow up...

Okay, Desktop... you said that it was only 'children' that were supporting m&m, go back to the first page, plenty of adults had kind words to say! You say that you would put your opinion across if anybody spoke about their elders in that way, not just a 16 year old? Well i dont see you telling S&O this... she just said her mother is a total baggage! It's only a word and not a paragraph but it shows just as little respect in my opionion... And guess what, she's an adult (who no body seems to argue with not sure why) and no one says anything. |

Yes, Desktop, you are entitled to an opinion,which is perfectly fine and I do see your point of view in a sense, but lrh123 has a point; there has been a few adults offering good advice. I'm not trying to sound snotty, but at 22 I class myself as an adult, and I feel my advice was perfectly reasonable on the subject.
Back on the actual topic, I feel maybe we should all remember how we all were at 16, and as none of actually know the situation aswell as the orginal poster, we shouldn't be so quick to judge. That said, can we not all just respect everyones opinions and be done with it?
God I feel so old now!!

S&O has not slated her mother continuously and acting in a spoilt brat way she has called her a total baggage, slight difference to what M&M is accusing her grandfather of, it is very easy to view the world through 16 year old rose tinted glasses isnt it  |

Like I said S&O only said one word! I'm not saying she can't as that would contradict what I previously said. However, I feel if I were to call my mother a total baggage then I would get told I had no respect S&O I apoligise for using you as an example as I have absolutely no objection to what you are saying, you can call your mother what you like. I am just trying to get kmy point across! |

Perhaps as you get older, you might have a less cloudy veiw of family history and issues. Whilst I can appreciate he may not be the best person in world, there may well be reasons . life is not always black and white and the older you realise what you thought was black and white can be greyer than you imaigined.
You could always try some reverse phycology ... the less you appear to want him the more he may want you x

oh you are so very mature for an ADULT, who RESPECTS, who is supposed to be RESPONSIBLE, who is SUPPOSED to WELCOME people to this site... not drive them away. cyber-bullies is the word that springs to my mind lrh... and its not nice.
go get a life, and grow up yourselves.
