why so many judgemental people on this site?

I thought it was for support, not for personal attacks, why is it that I'm seeing and reading people's comments, thinking it's perfectly ok, to not only attack someones choices in life but to actually tell someone that they need professional help? or let alone how to parent their own children? the old adage think before you speak comes to mind....seems like a few people have no clue what that means.
“We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.”

I think people become 10 feet tall and say things on the internet that they would never dream of saying to someones face.
Just ignore the rude ones. :drinker:0 -
I say people are going to have their judgments, whether they voice them or not. So, let them have them. It sucks and it's too bad that we feel it's ok to put each other down. Who knows where it comes from? YOUR opinion of YOURSELF is the only one that matters. And I think that goes for all of us who are trying to lose weight and be healthy. Be honest with yourself, let other people's opinions slide off your back--good and bad--because when you let yourself care too much about another person's opinion of you, the more power you give that person over your own feelings. I'm sure people think lots of good and bad things about me, but I try not to give them too much merit in the way I think of myself. It's a process, but one I think is important for living a healthy life.
So, judgments be damned! Usually when someone makes a judgment about another person, they are revealing more about themselves than they are you.
