It's basically going back and forth between these two, but it's getting heated and we're dancing on (just past?) the edge of slinging insults....
Thoughts?

I just read through the thread again. I originally had been going to respond to Jenna's mom and didn't. Is there any way we can just keep the two of them apart? Sigh!

She might respond better to Raven who just posted, so continue to keep your eye on it and see.
Dpen's last response is at least non attacking etc. and hopefully the emotional charge is over.
If not, feel free to post a msg on there to calm down, respect etc.
I was relieved to see that Raven posted, as I definitely think her post will come across a lot better than one of us going in there like a sheriff :cowboy:
Here's hoping :)
The problem is, dpen is at least somewhat right (if harsh) in her appraisal of Jenna'smom's responses. Both of them are pretty rigid in their viewpoints. However, if I found that my birth child was using my raised child's identity to get credit, etc. I'd be upset too and would definitely want an end to that.
I think they both have valid points - i don't think that JennasMom (or her family) should be doormats in the situation, but I definitely hear what dpen is trying to say, she's just not saying it in a way that a hurting woman is going to hear right now....

Exactly, which is why I didn't post. I could think how to say what I think Cassandra (j'mom) needs to hear in a way that she will hear it.
I just read the entire thread. It seems that things have cooled down quite a bit. Cassandra apologized to both Raven and Dpen.
