<p>I think if you go back and look at the history of my posts, you will note that I have a great deal of both “tolerance” for the process and patience. What I have no tolerance for is parents who refuse to face facts, continuing down their own path of misconceived incorrect ideas, no matter the facts presented by those who understand the process. I think basically exactly everything I posted in relation to the food non-issue has proved to be correct. For various reasons, which I have no intent of rehashing again, parents feeding unfounded rumors was the main culprit in the entire fiasco. There was a food shortage for one single meal. Only one. Secondly, the CACO death notification was explained thoroughly both when it happened and by grad/dad and myself in this very thread. You will, however, continue to note both of these instances as an administration failure as long as you are a member of this forum. Of this, I am most positive. </p>
<p>On this particular thread, four graduates and a couple of other parents propose both reasons for the medical occurrence and proposed solutions. Rather than embrace this collective several lifetimes of knowledge, you go off on some totally irrelevant argument concerning some perceived ethical difference between “allow”, “deserve”, and “tolerate” and then attempt to portray us as ethical morons for not acknowledging your comments. Guess what? Who the heck cares? We knew exactly what the Captain meant by his comment and saw its relevance to the argument. We chose not to get caught up in some obtuse hypothetical semantics discussion. It didn’t matter. You may claim forever that you are only attempting to learn. However, your actions prove otherwise. Of this, I have no tolerance. Therefore, until you open your mind and cease your hidden agenda, please do not lecture me on what you “expect” from a BGO. The very fact that most of my posts were merely in agreement with other parents disproves your ‘zero tolerance for parents’ accusation. </p>
<p>I have discovered throughout my lifetime that if someone discredits the Navy, my immediate rebuttal, once all the facts are presented, in 99% of the situations, proves correct Competent people doing the best they can with the resources available, do not make the mistakes which you think are common to the institution. This type of support would also be what I would expect from someone who would be proud to display the “Navy Mom” bumper sticker.</p>
