GOOD GRIEF!! Can we all not agree to disagree?? Obviously, our experiences WERE NOT the same. I don't feel the need to slam anyone for their negative experiences or impact it had on ones life, family, etc., and empathize with those who still hurt and hold resentments.
Hard-wired my ass!! I was provided "tools" for life which I use to this day and appreciate hanging w/ people who are positive, honest, loyal and not "full of shit" as so many people tend to be. As the bumper stickers state "MEAN PEOPLE SUCK" and "TEACH PEACE". Those of you still ranting about how the Seed f***** you up remind me of "Children of Adult Alcoholics" that can't find anyone to blame but their parents.
Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth,
The splendor of action,
The glory of power -
For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream
of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day.

Yes Robin...in a perfect world. However sometimes people push each others buttons. The Seed is an emotional issue, and I think this entire Forum community should be proud for the way flames have been handled. If you doubt that, take a look around the Straight or Elan sites.
All one has to do is peruse the history of this site to find most of the flames have come from the "pro" seed side. I have tried to quelch as many as possible from both sides, but it has happened before and it will happen again.
Understanding is the key..in this case someone came along and called all critics "druggies". You must understand that is a hot button, then the daughter jumped to his defense and basically called everyone with a negative memory a liar. On any other forum this would have erupted into a free for all with cursing and personal attacks.
Now, when we were in the seed all critics were called druggies,and if you spoke against anything the seed said or did after you got out you had a druggie attitude and were banished and not spoken to by those connected to the seed.
Bullshit. Plain and simple. On this forum all sides will be heard, and no comment by ANYONE is sacred and closed to questioning...and if that type of introspection causes somone to tuck tail and leave...so be it. All I ask is you leave personal attacks out, but I encourage everyone to vigorously debate the issues. And yes, if your poppa posts here, his comments are fair game as well.
