This is why:
My DS is ASD and I was absolutely devastated until I found the SN Board and realised quite how many of us are out there. That board makes me feel like DS belongs to a very special club.
I BF my dd till 15 months because of encouragement on MN. I stopped at 4 months with ds because I had not yet discovered it and thought I had "done my bit".
Given me more clever answers and quotes with which to shut my sometimes arsehole dh up with than I can shake a stick at.
A Mnetter sent back DS's much loved bear that we left in a hotel. She made the effort to drive to the hotel, find our bear and send him back to us.
Given me outstanding career advice.
Given me parenting tips that have quite literally stopped me from storming down to my DC's bedroom and shrieking like a virago at them - many, many times.......
Counselled me through my crappy relationship with my Mum and helped me get to a point where I can put up with her nonsense.
and most of all made me feel like I am actually a pretty great Mum, when I don't get much encouragement from elsewhere.
All that done by one website for one person.
