I'm sure you're closer in age to the members here more than you think. I never commented on you being a mother, so I don't know why you're even bringing that up.
"you younger generation", "you young people", whatever. It can come across as condescending, and many of your posts carry that tone. If you don't want them to come across that way then fix it.

Why do I even bother explaining myself?
Since when has calling and individual "sweetheart" come across as being condescending? Never. I address people as "sweetheart" as an expression of endearment.
Once again you are clearly taking everything at face value and making a big objection over something so minor and insignificant. And when I address people on the forums as being of a "younger generation" I am referring to the high school/college students who are still free and not bound like I am. I mean no harm by it so don't jump the gun and assume that I'm being overbearing. And I brought up my motherhood as a reference to my age. And I assure you most of the members on this forum are not 29 going on 30 like I am, so you should not say such unfounded things. And you seem to be the only individual who finds my comments problematic for that matter.
If you have a problem with my comments then you should have handled the situation appropriately and sent me a private message. And if you would like for me to fix my tone then ask politely. That is all you had to do. There is no need to cause unnecessary upheaval sweetheart.
