Putting the lid on my opinion. - Real Mum story on MoM

16 Comments

I am so sick of having to tip toe around people because I know they are not going to like my opinion. When did it become illegal to have a completely reasonable opinion on certain issues. I was not aware that I was supposed to think the same thing as everyone else! I pride myself on never insulting people with my thoughts or opinions, but it seems that some people just manage to out words in your mouth. I have recently been the victim of a scathing ‘attack’ on my opinion because it did not line up with that of a local association (let’s just say they at supposed to support women in their ‘endeavours’ as a parent). Apparently their way is the highway and anyone that doesn’t do things their way is just ignorant or lazy. It is absolutely no wonder that PND is rife this day in age. When did we become so judgemental.

Freedom of speech is sadly being lost, due to extrem political correctness. It’s almost like we have to analyse everything we say before we say it, for fear we might offend somebody. It actually takes away from us as individuals I fear, and makes for an almost robotic society.

Everyone’s point of view or opinion is different. Don’t put the lid on it.

Everyone have the same right to give their opinion. Different opinion it doesn’t mean you in wrong position.

    Yes exactly, we can’t learn from each other unless people share their opinions

don’t stop giving your opinion just because it is not popular – everyone has a right to say what they think!

Try not to take it too personal. When you see a bunch of people walking towards a path and you’re not doesn’t always mean you are wrong. It’s just that you are seeing something good that no one else can

To be honest, I think every single human being in the world is judgemental. They might not say it but they think it. But that’s us being human. It is totally normal Just try to take it less personal.
