Glad you can see the point I'm trying to make. And the main thing is the hurt that I'm trying to prevent. Allowing someone on a board to manipulate people who are the last in the world that need to be hurt is ridiculous. This is, I believe, a group of individuals who are depressed and hurting and none of them deserve to be tricked into telling private details of their "mental illnesses" to someone who has no professional training whatsoever. Thanks, Gab!!
