Is it possible to live with out gossip?
This isn't the most positive blog, but I am sure that all of us has experienced this at some time or another, maybe we are even guilty of it. My wonderings are...what the heck is wrong with people? Are people so unhappy with their own lives that they must do what they can to damage mine? At the moment this comes from a parent that crossed the line, now she is so mad at me for calling her (politely) on it that she isn't saying very nice things...mind you this parent requested that her child be in my classroom and this isn't the first problem that I have had with her this year. The things that she is saying are not true and anyone who really knows me knows that they aren't. UGHHH!!! I swear it is impossible in a town this size and a school district that size to lay low. I thought that if I just left it alone it would blow over (as I have with other things in my life). When will I learn? I don't like confrontation, but one bad comment can develop people's opinions of you and it takes about ten good comments to chang their minds. There, after that vent now I feel better!!!! :)

ReplyDeleteI completely understand what you mean. I read an article one time about this woman having the same problem and she went to her pastor about it because it was one of the ladies in their congregation that was spreading all these lies. and he simply said to her, "I'm sorry, there is nothing you can do about her. but you can do something. Live so that no one believe what is being said." I know it's not easy to look at it that way but you're totally right. anyone who knows you or see's the way you act will know that this woman is absolutely NUTS! I'm sorry that it's happening though and i hope it does blow over for your sake.- and sorry i was on the wrong account and left this message in mikey and brianna's account.
