Re: Dr. Jain, please explain why you disputed another Dr.'s diagnosis of ADHD

[caper]

trashman: Dr. Jain may remember exactly what he said or may have the official transcript. The judge’s summary of his evidence may not have accurately represented what Dr. Jain said. “We all know” that there is nothing unethical about disclosure of public information.

Your post seems argumentative & evasive. I used the same phrase as you (we all know) to emphasize this. An assertive form of communication would be to say, “I believe” or “I think”. Your use of the phrases “we all know” and “we know” is a form of communication that doesn’t leave an opportunity for different perspectives.

If you had said, “I think it would be unethical for him to discuss this”, then I could have responded with “I disagree” without prompting a fight. “We all know” is condescending, and likely to prompt an equally or more angry response.

dspicelady: shame on your for supporting this type of behavior.

Here’s a page I like that describes healthy communication styles:
