ORIGINAL: windchymes Give the girl a break, she just lost her father. Not sure about everyone else who's complaining, bullying and/or criticizing. But if you did this past week, then you are forgiven, too. My condolences. My only criticism of this young lady has been here and has been directed at the stupidity of her reasons for her social media departure. She said that her reason was that people were complaining that she didn't have enough photos of her dad posted; that people were just looking to "mine her feed" for photos of her dad. Others have said that there were other things going on. I've seen nothing about that and I tend to think that if this young lady were so upset, she wouldn't have left out such major things as photo-shopped photos posted to her page. I don't know how either of these sites work because I don't use them. Now, if someone did photo-shop an image, as long as it wasn't in really bad taste, who cares? More importantly; how is that "bullying"? As I stated in my OP, it's not like people can't turn the fucking contraption on their desk off. The entitlement I mentioned is these people who enjoy all of what celebrity (or close orbit to a star) brings them but don't want to deal with the draw-backs. Yes, this young lady lost her dad and I'm sure that's a terrible thing and my heart goes out to her but when you take to the public arena to pronounce your pain and gain all the sympathy you can, you have to take the "negative" feedback also (although, I will re-iterate that I don't see people complaining about a lack of photos as being a huge negative). With all due respect, I think you missed my point, that at this stage of grief, she's acting on strong emotions and knee-jerk reactions and a desperate need for comfort and solace. She's not taking the time to think things through, judge the wisdom or appropriateness of them, she's just reacting. Venting in a place that's familiar TO HER. That's why I suggested not judging her too harshly AT THIS TIME. When I got the call that my dad had died, even though we were expecting it, I still remember the feeling of bewilderment and not knowing what I should do because I had never been "there" before. I wanted to talk to someone for comfort, but there was no one to call in the middle of the night. So I went on Yahoo Messenger (this was almost 12 years ago when it was more active) and found one person that I chatted with on occasion, and I talked to him, and he was nice enough to let me unload on him. That's what I meant by giving her a break. She's never been "here" before and she probably doesn't really know what to do from one moment to the next. And she's a LOT younger than I was. I don't disagree with what you said, I just hate to see her judged at this time for bad or inappropriate decisions right now. For the record, the "you" I was using was meant as a general "you", to anyone reading, not you personally :) Not sure how I got the purple....lol
