being verbally assaulted remember, and I quote it vaguely.........
"No one has the permission to make you feel inferior. You have to give it to them." Eleanor Roosevelt
I often tell my children that if you do not have anything nice to say, keep your mouth closed. So one day they asked me "Mom what happens when people say ugly things to us."
I said, "Don't get mad at them, ignore them. They do not know any better...and you cannot get mad with a person who does not know any better."
It takes two people to argue...if you turn and walk away they are simply talking to themselves about themselves.
