I'm here for you if you need to ask something, vent, cry, tell a
joke.....anything.
Why? Because I'm part of a SUPPORT group.

I asked her to not post here anymore. She doesn't need the crap she has been
dished. She will probably come back. She needs a break at the moment to care
for her psuedo pregnancy. I am glad she has a good friend, you!

Jolinda,
Was this a serious post, or tongue in cheek?

I asked Jo to not post anymore, to get things resolved..etc. Resolved as in
for the negativity towards her to stop. She does NOT need this. It was not
like I said.."JO, YOU ARE NOT TO POST ON THE PARENT NG!" She is a grown
woman, and because she is so forgiving and sees the good in *everyone*, she
will more and likely come back. She is hurt by this. To think she is not
really pregnant, that she would foolishly cause harm to her child.........
I did not want her to keep posting and defending herself, only to have
people lash back at her. I consider her a friend. She is extremely
supportive of everyone. She tries very hard to word things *just* right, but
often fails to get her point across. She gets lonely, like many of us, and
comes the ng's for support. So what if she has something to post, often.
She deserves respect. So, yes, I asked her, NOT told her to post on the ng.
Whether it be a long time, short time, or never again. She can make up her
own mind. She kept coming back and trying to explain herself, over and over.
She can get her support elsewhere, if need be. She can come back today----it
is *her* choice and I will support her on whatever decision she makes.

Is this what you were referring to, or was it the fact that many think she
is not preg( thus the psuedo preg remark)? If it was that remark, then yes,
I was being sarcastic.

For what it's worth, I respect people's rights to not believe someone, or be
cynical. That's fine. But I think Jo should continue to post here if she
wants to. Those who don't believe her to be true, can kill her or block
her.

I think she should, too. And I will respect her decision. I don't put
conditions on my relationships. I was looking out for. We conversed in
private email and I asked her to step back and not post. She can make up her
own mind.

I actually begged her to not post. LOL. This is how upset I was. When I saw
that she kept going back and defending herself.. I was like... Jo!!
Lol on the killing thing. I knew what you meant, though:))))

I don't like the idea that she be shunned out because people THINK she might
be faking. I don't believe that she is and I will support her 100% in her
pregnancy. She has had a rough time and I think the treatment of her has
been appalling. This shouldn't even be debated.

FWIW if it was another member of the group posted frequently with questions
and need for support would they too be accused of making up the situations?

And yes I was around when LauraNJ was frequenting the newsgroups so I am
aware that it does happen but for goodness sake even she wasn't persecuted
till AFTER she was outed.

No wonder people only lurk here.

FWIW< I think it's very odd that she has not posted on parenting all
day. There have been many a thread where Jo has defended herself
repeatedly. WHat makes this time different? B/c Jolinda told her not
too? I am sorry, really I am, but it's too hard to not be suspicious.

Well, FWIW, Jo has pictures of her pregnant self and her ultrasounds on her
website.
If I were Jo I wouldn't feel exactly welcome on this ng either.

I've seen pics of her pg but that's not why I choose to believe her. I
just do. If she's lying, well...I guess I'm a fool. Who cares.

Well she's posting up a storm over on A.I.Pg. And yes, Jolinda told her to
stop defending herself. That she didn't need to. Jo felt like "she" was
causing too much controversy, so she's hoping if she stops posting, it will
die down. It's not Jo who is causing controversy. If you don't believe
her, killfile her. And then get a ladder, and get over it.

Hey, I didn't realize that and just checked them out! :-)

Jo, I loved your flower/veggie pictures--I'd like to borrow some
sometime to draw/color pencil/watercolor! The pics are beautiful! :-)

Love,
