People are Catching Crazy

I’ve decided that women are crazy. I know I have a lot of female readers, I myself am a female with all this said I maintain that women are crazy. I have also recently learned that when a woman gets access to a message board the amount of crazy doubles. I don’t know if it is the fact that you don’t have to face the person they are openly criticizing or if while sitting at home on their couches women are just generally pissed off (before anyone says anything I am aware that men are also capable of creating the drama… but my recent experience has been limited to women).
With all that said here is my story…
As I have talked about before, I recently joined a new moms group. Moms groups are sometimes hard to deal with, I will discuss more about the weirdness that are moms group but that is a different post. So I joined this group which is just starting up, it was created by a very nice mom who was looking for new friends in the area because she recently moved here.
The group has been in existence for about a week, in that time we have met up once at a coffee shop. This very nice woman who I have actually hung out with separate from the group has received numerous emails and message board posts criticizing the group. Some are mad because they think some of the kids are too old, some don’t want other kids touching their kids toys, some think it is ridiculous to cap the age, some don’t like the place we met last time… It seems to me like they have a lot of pent up aggression and are taking it out on this very nice woman who went out of her way and spent her own personal time creating a place where women in similar situations could come together to find companionship.
I don’t really know how to make the situation any better, if I get involved I will just be adding to the crazy. So all I can say is before criticizing someone or taking out your aggression on someone who doesn’t deserve it, take a moment and realize you are out of control. If you don’t like the way someone else is doing something, try doing it yourself.
