here's the trick.

You go to GD and look at the threads with the largest number of posts and you see On "narcing out" negligent parents as a likely suspect with over 500 posts.

That's the one!

Then you go to page 3 and see another huge thread locked because the OP was deleted and you found the source of the debate.

Easy, eh?

(But then, if you start reading the threads, you just ruined your day.)

So, never mind. This is just one GD fight I'll gladly ignore...

What a quarky user name.

Well played.

I support reaching out and helping someone in need first. If there is imminent danger, then intervene but otherwise... keep a watchful eyeout and don't increase life trauma for others because it's easy.

Things are pretty much handled on a case by case basis...... all things.

I see a world of difference between fingering a murderer and, say, snitching out a neighbor for a pot plant in the corner of the garden.

you have to follow your conscience.

I wouldn't have snitched based on what she said. Regardless, everyone has to do what they feel is best. Even if that means getting called a busybody.
