Dear Anonymous:

I really don't like your comments.. if you feel the need to comment on something please be man or woman enough to sign your name.. or make one up. Signing something as Anonymous means that - to me- you are a coward, that you don't want to be responsible for your actions/words.

When I feel the need to comment on someone else's blog or post - be it on a board for moms or even facebook - I always sign my name. Even if what I have to say is not going to be met with anything positive in response. I always sign my name and take responsibility for my words. I apologize when I have wronged someone or said something inappropriate. I might even feel deep down that I am correct in my information or opinion, but I try my best to make amends.

I also don't appreciate the timing. I am in mourning and about to bury my grandmother. Talk about kicking a person when they are down.

So Anonymous... I offer you a compromise:

If you come forward and tell me who you are I will not be mad. I will not talk negatively about your actions. I'd be willing to talk it out with you and get to a mutual understanding even if we have to agree to disagree.

If you decide not to reveal yourself, that is fine too. It will be on your conscious that you decided to do this and someday what you have done will bite you in the hindquarters and that is enough consolation for me.
