text: In reply to message14419: I absolutely agree with you about needing to have thick skin... but what Viking said does hold merit and should be recognized as so... it’s the same tactic u would use as a boss with an employee or having a spat with the spouse out of ear range of the kids... some things are just better done in private... I see both points and agree with both...it’s just finding the balance of when it’s appropriate to speak openly or in private... I personally don’t think it’s a matter of thick skin... just a matter of respect... which we should all have for one another ...there’s a time and place for all things
