I am supportive of advice/guidelines/suggestions or whatever we want to call them. Mostly I don't want to hold people up for ridicule if they fail to conform. To dive into the child psychology angle, you don't tell a child learning to walk or talk that everything they do is wrong. You praise them for their effort and seek to educate them, while understanding that everyone develops their own style. Natrually, I disagree with you, Lee! :)

It's very easy to get caught up in the 'Let's change the world' hype around social media, and forget about how to bring others with you. A lesson to use all! Good perspective Lee.
