Group messages (MMS) getting sent as individual SMS messages

Hi!  I'm using Verizon Messaging Plus on my LG V10 phone.  When I try to respond to group messages, my messages come through to other people as if I'm responding only to them individually, in a separate thread.  Everyone receives the message, but it appears on their end that I ONLY responded to that one person.  On their end, they do not see my responses in the group thread.  On my screen, my message shows up in the group thread, but it's duplicated to equal the amount of people in the group (ex:  if the group has three people, my response will show up three times on my screen in the group thread).  Has anyone experienced a similar problem?  How did you fix it?  This is so frustrating, because it makes group messaging confusing and tedious.

When you long press one of the groupl messages in your list, and view the Conversation details, isthe Recipients Reply to option set to Group or Just Me?  Check that it is set to GROUP before sending the message.
