Thing is...as soon as you convince one person to be more flexible on an idea, someone else new joins up with the same old inflexibility...on ANY topic, not just BP husbandry.

    You'll see whatever you choose to focus on. There are plenty of folks here who advocate for flexibility on husbandry methods, while at the same time, coaxing beginners with the simplest "tried-and-true" methods. But if you focus on the stuff that irritates you, then it will seem like that's all that anyone is doing.

    Sometimes, it really, really feels to me like all anyone ever does here is complain about everyone else. Of course that isn't true...but if the center of your back itches and you can't reach it...all of a sudden, it's the only thing you can focus on, even though the rest of your body feels perfectly fine. There's always something going on that we don't like. We can choose to focus all our attention on it...or we can choose to focus on the positive side of things that is ALSO always there. And we can also choose to be a part of the solution to our irritants, or we can choose to complain about them and hope someone else figures out how to fix them.
