Goodness, Tina, what do you expect from a Facebook Group?

Secondly, how does it matter what anyone says on social media, how can you
let your mental well being be hostage to it (social media), of all things?
How does it matter what those people you do not know at all say about you?
It will not change your life one whit!

People say things on social media that they would not dare to do so face to
face because they fear they will get punched in the nose. Closed Groups on
social media give the introverted and maladjusted citizens of the world,
especially the highly insecure ones, free reign to insult a captive and
largely anonymous audience for shoring up their own tattered ego. This is
Social Media 101. If you do not have a skin thick enough to handle this,
you do not belong there. Remember, though, that it is better for them to
let out steam this way, rather than pick up a gun and go on a shooting
spree.

Cheer up, and disregard what happens on Facebook!

Cheers
Jayanand
