Hi, Glyden:
I, too struggle with the same question. It's an aspect of PB that often troubles me. In the past when I've been "unsupportive", my posts have been met with a good deal of animosity. Although I realize that some people are "sensitive" and/or "vulnerable" (I use the quotes because these are subjective terms), I often feel that alternative opinions can be helpful. Unconditional love is a great healer but a true friend tells you the truth.
