Is mumsnet really a friendly place?

This isn’t really a question but from the topics covered here (MIL issues,family nonsense, childcare etc)I’m probably one of the older members and done with all that stuff.
I’m genuinely interested to know if many people here really gain anything from posting their problems to a crowd of total strangers. Also the number of very snippy, judgmental and superior comments are quite shocking
Is Mumsnet really and truly a support network or the biggest virtual playground competition on the planet?!

Chat, general health etc can be wonderfully supportive and helpful, as can the gardening and property threads.

AIBU is only for the very brave imo.
