Sleep well. You have a fundamental problem. You cannot distinguish between Person A saying that Person B is choosing unwisely and Person A trying to bar Person B from making that choice. it's very different. I might think that many people are choosing poorly (the wrong food, the wrong car, the wrong TV show). But I rarely, if ever, try to enforce my view. 1 jackwebster reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
