(for those that are following this hermit crab tale and are confused... read the multiple comments left under the hermit crab posts. That will fill you in)
How can I make this any clearer?
MY CHILD DID NOT PULL A LIVE CRAB OUT OF ITS SHELL!!
As a matter of fact, my children never even touched the crabs that day. The crabs were discovered ALREADY DEAD when I was cleaning out the cage.
BRYAN is my husband (not my son) who tugged on one of them to try to get it to move b/c they hadn't moved in hours. The children were afraid to touch them, but were upset b/c we were thinking they were dead.
When the crab didn't resist - we knew they were dead. Is there another way to test to see if a hermit crab is dead? If so, you can enlighten me.
To insinuate that my child would TORTURE a live animal is insulting and just proves that you do not know me (or my family) personally.
The crabs deaths was accidental and upsetting to all of us - what part of my post would lead you to believe that they were alive? except that you DID NOT know that Bryan was not my son!!!
You obviously didn't read the post completely or with a full knowledge of our family. Next time ask before you jump to conclusions and start accusing me of being a terrible person.
I DO NOT owe anyone an apology!!!!!!!!
I think you owe me one - or at the very least...
The hermit crab society needs to back off... Kindly leave this blog alone.

Thank you for enlightening us on the crab story. Perhaps the wording could have been different & the explanation of "putting them back in the water" would have sounded better than just throwing them over the fence. You are correct in saying we have no right to judge you w/o knowing you. Just by you being upset with what we wrote makes me reconsider you in a different light. I'm sorry I offended you, but in light of how your blog was written, you can see how easily it was misunderstood. BTW I'm not with CSJ, but do have hermit crabs as pets. Enjoy every moment w/your children - they grow up in a blink of an eye!
