Always, I think you’re right, especially as a mother with small children, who can sit there and spend the hours that it might take to really analyze a whole thread, especially if it has a lot of posts. You’re doing what probably a lot of people in the CR are doing. It would probably be different if we were face to face and could isolate ourselves one-on-one with someone to have a direct conversation. You can’t help it when someone else joins the thread (not saying that they’re not positively contributing, just it takes much concentration to remember who said what), so just take what you can from each thread and participate when you feel comfortable.
