M: Again we have the condescending assumption that if I express an opinion 
about Robin's post, it will influence Share's opinion about it.

Maybe what we both noticed in Robin's piece was really how it came off to 
people not dedicated to ignoring the obvious.

For people without your condescending assumptions about Share, it isn't much of 
a stretch to think that she might not agree with Robin's condescending take on 
her. 

Even without my encouragement. 

What you are doing here is imagining something to shame me for: wanting Share 
to disagree with Robin.  And Share was right, even if I wanted it, which I 
couldn't care less about, her disagreement with Robin is not her being 
compliant with mine.

She is all grown up now and doesn't need you to tousle her hair.
