If you actually read all that I have posted, I just want everyone to get along and have people get educated without being ridiculed.
I dont think anyone has asked anyone to sugarcoat anything, just to be polite. This whole point continually is being ignored because everyone is choosing to be on the defense.
You can be informative and polite at the same time, without sugarcoating, and without accusing or rudeness. |
You are right. That's why I'm going to suggest that newcomers use the
"search" feature. Many, many questions that are posted have been answered here before.
I guess that many breeders get frustrated at seeing the same questions asked time and time again. When you get 50 threads titled "My dog is X days pregnant, WHAT DO I DO, HELP!" the breeder may decide why answer this one again and move on. Or, they'll kindly answer a question then you see the same question asked 20 more times. Next time, they may not be so kind.
With over 1,000,000 posts, you'd think that their question has been asked at least once. The only time that I've seen posts that come close to being rude are the ones where breeders give their advice. Then, the OP gets on the defensive and accuses everyone of attacking them. I'll say it again...what one may seem as rude may be fine to another.
People need to learn to get a thick skin. Don't be so sensitive to what you see written. Unless someone is coming right out and telling a person that they're stupid, heed the advice, take it and run with it.
