I don't like it!

1.I don't like it when people put stay-at-home-mom into quotation marks.
Like this: "stay-at-home mom".
Whats to quote there?Its a freaking normal thing,not some acronym for some kind of weird desease.
I am not putting you as a "working-out-side-the-home-mom" down either.

2.I don't like grammatical perfectionism.Not every one is a wiz in written language.Some people have no idea how humiliating it is when someone constantly makes fun about the way you write and the typos you make.
As people,spell checkers are also NOT perfect.

When people continuously offer criticism of ones spelling or grammar chances are they can't think of anything else to say. I don't mind a friendly correction on occasions, but if iti s constant, the person is simply rude. Don't give them a thought.

The friendly reminders I like,too.
The rest is just frustration.Some people seem to thrive on criticism.
However,I do admit that a lot of times I get things in the wrong throat because it frustrates me not to be able to be perfect in certain ways.And then friendly criticism easily sounds like nagging.
