I stay away from FB during election season. Even the most level-headed people start posting statuses about politics and it just gets to me!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655539 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:58:59 +0000 2PeasinaPod 655539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Politics for sure. Especially on FB! I find myself getting way too heated, and it's not worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655529 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:56:37 +0000 teamjse 655529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Money and religion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655446 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:28:44 +0000 Rubies 655446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stay away from topics and threads that I 100% completely disagree with. It could be about anything under the sun but if I totally disagree with you or my initial gut reaction is to say, "You're an idiot", then yeah, I just won't even try to word something nicely. I'll just move on to a different thread. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655062 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:30:41 +0000 shopaholic 655062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Modern Daisy: LOL! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655054 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:28:18 +0000 Anagram 655054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting that so many people avoid talking about mental health! I didn't realize that was a hot button topic for so many people. That's one of my favorite topics, since we are always working with my sister in my family. I like to learn and share information about our experiences, just in case it helps someone else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655042 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:26:07 +0000 Anagram 655042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like discussing politics and religion, to an extent. I've only stayed away from one thread on HB so far about politics, and that was just because it was too opposite of my beliefs, even for me (And I like to think I have a lot of empathy for every side, since my family is so mixed). </p> <p>But I do try to stay away from threads about infertility (have no experience) and miscarriages--I just can't handle it right now. I'm normally very even keeled, but my pregnancy hormones/fears/anxieties made me literally cry for hours one night about a thread here and I just decided I need to stay away from those for a little while. Not because I don't feel really awful for my fellow bees, but because maybe I'm projecting those experiences onto my own pregnancy a little too much at the moment, which isn't very healthy when there's absolutely nothing I can do about it at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655030 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:23:25 +0000 Modern Daisy 655030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stay away from gross topics because I get grossed out really easily and usually am reading HB during lunch </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-655021 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:21:14 +0000 regberadaisy 655021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: haha I like your policy!</p> <p>I generally stay away from politics &amp; religion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654996 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:16:13 +0000 shopaholic 654996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Ditto! Though I will sometimes comment or make a statement on a thread, but post about money and religion definitely make me uncomfortable. Politics also, but a little more interesting to just see different p.o.v.'s, though I'd rarely engage. I also tend to stay away from somewhat antagonistic posts (i.e. adopting HIV babies). Honestly, I don't even want to open a post like that because it just seems so sad and a lose-lose situation. And sometimes I admit I don't even want to open a post that I know is sad and will make me sad. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654982 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:13:31 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 654982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't comment on money, politics, or pregnancy posts usually. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654971 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:11:15 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 654971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i stay away from anything heated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654958 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:09:23 +0000 Alivoo01 654958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Politics and religion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654932 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:02:55 +0000 sorrycharlie 654932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cat in the Cradle: @.twist.: yes, definitely are others :)</p> <p>I try to avoid getting into hot button topics but will give a basic statement depending on what it is. I also try to avoid giving advice on mental health/relationship topics for a strange reason I guess - I have a master's in couple &amp; family therapy (just haven't taken the exam yet to become a LMFT) but feel like I shouldn't give advice from a therapist when I'm not someone's therapist! haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654710 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:07:36 +0000 Mrs. Pen 654710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>politics and religion </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654612 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:48:14 +0000 banana 654612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Politics, infertility, mental health.

The only mental health topic I would probably be comfortable talking about is ADHD because my step son has a severe case of it and I've just done a lot of reading up on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654508 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:24:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 654508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: @mrbee: @mrskc: I also stay away from posts about infertility and mental health...

But when these topics come up it does seem there are always a few that are unable to "discuss" and instead try to argue their point of view. that is when i try to back out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654481 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:20:24 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 654481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Politics and religion. </p> <p>Money ... I will talk about certain aspects, such as being stressed financially by student loans and jobs that just aren't what we need. I really try to keep it clear, though, that our situation is a work in progress, and I'm not complaining without doing something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654478 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:20:13 +0000 mrbee 654478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to avoid posts about mental health. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654476 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:19:02 +0000 HabesBabe 654476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same categories as you, @mrs. wagon, but also Infertility. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-categories-of-posts-you-do-not-comment-on#post-654473 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:18:13 +0000 .twist. 654473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stay out of most religious and political posts. I'm not the least bit religious and I feel like I'm in a minority of that here. I also sway heavily in politics because I'm not particularly educated in it, therefore anything I say probably sounds pretty stupid! LOL. </p> <p>If it's a really light hearted topic I may say something, but usually when it gets into a lot of details and heated, educated talk, I step away. </p>
