Please read Budgie Rustlers thread. Life is too short for petty squables (sp?). We don't know what is around the corner. I know that there has been a lot of hurt to many people and for some it is hard to forgive and forget but please let us ALL respect each other. That includes those that have caused hurt in the past and they of all people should show some sincerity. Only then can we ALL move on. After all, this board is meant to be an off shoot of a GEANEALOGY site - not a 'he said / she said' site. I love this site and hate the way it is going. Love and hugs to all. Libby xx

Unfortunatly respect for and on this site disappeared a while ago.. People give no thought to how their comments or accusations affect others as they care about nothing but themselves. I blame their selfishness and egotism. They ought to learn that the world does not revolve around them and that a bit of respect and humility would make this a far happier place to be.

Very well said Viv. I am sure many members have been hurt by the thoughtless comments of others, never mind the ones that have been deliberately nasty by intention. Jay

Many are being hurt through lack of respect on this site. I was brought up to respect others and always told, ' If you can't say anything nice then say nothing at all.' I have tried to adhere to that in my life. I may think something very different but I always try to show some respect.
