Hello dear Heathershenhouse So normally, when trolls say something mean online, I completely ignore it.... except this time... I posted a video on TikTok of myself bringing coffee to my daughter out in her van. She had a headache and I thought it might help. Somehow, this video blew up and went totally viral on TikTok and almost all of the comments were super nice..... except......... One woman stated that it was "messed up that I make my daughter sleep in the driveway!" lol Hilarious. Of course you all know I don't make her sleep anywhere and van-life is a real thing and she loves it. Normally I ignore such comments but this one time, I decided to respond! I posted a response video that was polite yet explained that my daughter is a responsible adult who is resourceful and amazing, and she can come home anytime she wants. Sometimes, you just have to advocate for yourself and respond! But how do you know WHEN to respond and when to simply ignore it? My rule of thumb is that if you can't stop thinking about something for more than 1 day, then you respond to it. Waiting 1 day will also give you time to digest the situation and be thoughtful about your response. Responding is always better than reacting! Much to my surprise, my response video went viral too! And actually, hundreds of people commented and came to my defense to her original rude comment! I didn't expect that and honestly, it kinda felt good!! So be thoughtful about your responses and don't let other people control you by just reacting! What do you think of today's topic? Hit reply to this email or reach out on Facebook!
