| not sure what to title this... I have been going through some posts lately..I sense that some (maybe just one or two) member in this forum are trying to offer their so wrong advice to newer members who do not know anything and asking for advices. My fear is what if someone really think it is okay to do so without knowing it is not. I can't stand thinking of it happening! I hope I don't get in to trouble posting this but I am on the verge of not being able to hold my tongue on the person anymore and I am not usually like that! In fact, this is my first time on YT!

| Yikes! Hope it's not me. I don't claim to know much but once in awhile I will say something. Man, if it is me, please, please let me know. Certainly don't want to cause anyone harm.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | If you see something you don't agree with don't hesitate to post your information, just do so in a civil manner. From my experience here, if the information someone provides in incorrect, another member is usually quick to point out the error.

| I try not to give information on subjects I don't know about but if someone posts something that I don't agree with I just try to post my experiences and try not to make it sound argumentative.

| I don't think I will PM this person. I am not a confrontational type of person. I think she will get in to trouble on this yorkie lover forum sooner or later because of what she is doing. I will just keep watch and do so in a civil manner.

Senior Yorkie Talker | If it were me giving bad advice I would appreciate the correction. I only post on topics that I have experience in and something that may have worked for me may not be the best thing in somebody elses opinion. If somebody has a question, giving them more than one option is sometimes a good thing. As long as its posted in a nice tone I don't see much a problem. If you write something like "That was stupid advice" then expect to get some retaliation.

| Apparently this is a bit different than our run-of-the-mill threads with several different opinions posted? I often see people offering completely different points of view. And most of the time, it's even done civilly.

If the information they are giving out is incorrect then please correct them nicely. The last thing people need is bad advice that can potentially hurt their baby.

| Lots of times there isn't one "right" answer, just different opinions on a subject. It's always good to share your opinion and give another perspective, especially if you've had experience with the issue. If it's done politely and respectfully, your input can be very helpful. |
