I didn't know there was a RANT section in Craigslist.

From Craigslist Los Angeles/San Gabriel Valley, CA:
"Is it just me being "mean spirited"...or does it bother anyone else when they read down the row of posts and see several deserving people that are asking for help with such simple things to make their children happy...one for a box of crayons or used DVD's, another for a Christmas tree...and then you come to a post saying "all my children want for Christmas is a Wii"...that really bothers me! If all your children want for Christmas is a Wii...then perhaps you should consider teaching them the true meaning of christmas. Times must not truly be that hard for you, or you would be here asking for shoes, coats, blankets, and maybe some small toys and books to wrap up for your children for Christmas."

The same thing should have been posted on our freecycle group!

Why rant there where no one knows you when you can rant here where everyone knows you, it's not like we'll care any less than they do.:biggrin:

edit: leaving out a smiley can change the whole message.

So quick to judge...

Maybe they want a Wii to distract them from the horrors they are facing because mommy and daddy lost their jobs and the house is in foreclosure.

Sure, but a book would be cheaper.

What the kids want for Christmas and what the others are asking for are as different as night and day. Apples and Oranges.

The quest for a Wii in no way describes the family circumstances.

Here you go but don't say I didn't warn you. If your underwear is too tight or are easily offended by profanity DON't watch this video. But if you're a fan of Kevin Bloody Wilson it's his typical rude fare. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEe55NxFSSU
