Deep Sadness?

[lankeela]

The parents of a British schoolboy who was on the Air France plane that crashed in the Atlantic off Brazil have spoken of their "deep sadness" at the loss.

Deep sadness is what you feel when you hear of someone you knew dying - surely when your son is killed you would be absolutely devastated - but then he was shipped off to boarding school in England while the parents were in Rio.

lankeela.......2 of my 4 boys went away to Public School and I am not rich, but just want the best education for my kids.

Would they have got it in the state system?....they MIGHT, but I was not prepared to enter into a lottery.

Parent's not grief ridden?.......Dont be bloody stupid.

lankeela is unthoughtful and uncaring to even post this thread. What an idiot

[lankeela]

Okay, I expressed an opinion. You lot disagree. I'm off back to chatterbank where they may be a load of morons but they do accept other people's opinions. End of story.

[tamborine]

morons on CB? Keep with the dogs - you've lost touch with people.

[sqad617]

We all respect, but not accept your opinion.

We expressed ours.

Yep,its never good to generalize that rich folk feel less emotions then poor? WTF? So lankeela,if you suddenley came into money you think that your feelings and emotions suddenly float out of the window?



P M S L!

Echo the words of NoMercy + Sqad. Lankeela - if someone says they are deeply saddened they may actually mean they are very distressed by the trauma. There is nothing wrong with sending one's child off to boarding school either. My husband went to boarding school as a boy yet he was deeply loved by his parents. You cannot always tell what grief someone is experiencing by just their words alone either. Some people are not expressive with words whether it is great sadnesses or great joys yet they can stil be experiencing great emotions. Important to look at whole picture. Calling people on Chatterbank Morons is not particularly polite either- how to win friends and influence people. Yet saying this have a knack at times for putting foot in it by being too honest especially with the intellectual snobs on here. We are all equals no matter what our intelligence, status in society, private or public school education, creed, colour or how expressive we happen to be or not be with words, rich or poor- We all have the right to be treated with equal respect, kindness, tolerance + goodness. Sometimes not all is what it seems, too- Judging a book by its cover. Free country where we are all entitled to our own viewpoints. Loquacious Bea :-)
