Being in the public eye...
...is not for the faint-hearted!
The son of someone in our office was recently signed (free agent) to an NFL team, and, while we've always known that our co-worker's son is a decent, good-hearted person, who has worked very hard to be where he is today, already the various message boards are critical of him and the other free agents signed to that team for this season...
I'm beginning to see what it must be like for RR - many critize her behavior, food preparation, marriage, etc., but - no one who critizes her, knows her personally!
Yipes - being in the public eye is scary - talk about being vulnerable! I give RR credit - she keeps her chin up, despite it all (though I'll guess and say that some of the comments still sting)...
