I’m not being rude or superior. I also wasn’t quibbling about typos. I was expressing that honestly that post did not make sense to me and I could not tell who did what to whom.
I would say that most people who venture onto an online forum have the basic ability to make a clear description of a situation that they understand well. If they choose to do so.
I am sure if that poster gave it some attention she could revise that paragraph so we can tell what actually happened. It’s not so much education level as just thinking: who is going to read this and what do they need to know?
I realize that many teens use social media in an “expressive” way rather than to communicate things. It doesn’t matter in some contexts if your post is a rant or a word salad, if there is no real expectations anyone else will read it.
On COTH people really do read posts, and they try to provide advice based on what they read. If the post is not clear, the advice will not be pertinent.
