for some things, mumsnet is invaluable. i have received good advice, laughed out loud, read posts which have made me reflect on my own life.
but - i cant help but feel a tad repulsed by the levels of strident abuse of late.
surely its possible to acknowledge there are different ways of living/raising children and that is a good thing? within the bounds of genuinely abusive behaviour (and i dont mean using a buggy or the occasional sweet or whatever) how can anyone really be so sure that they are right, that they feel empowered to belittle and criticise others? surely its possible to contribute to discussions without getting abusive?
I cant help but feel that no-one gets it completely right. and that the point of an arena like this is to support and share.
it makes me really sad. that's all i wanted to say.
