I'm trying to help her develop a thicker skin. It's a needed trait.
I'm willing to bet that the non-technical people who succeeded with
Drupal didn't feel unwelcome or take it personally when someone didn't
leap to help them when they asked a question. If she doesn't get
discouraged the next time someone doesn't immediately jump in to
answer her questions, she will get further.
