What boards are disappearing or merging?

But I will still do my best to help them of course!

For the love of God, please remove the Surrogacy board. It's an embarrassment.

I did my best a few years ago (under other usernames... we had DC through surrogacy) but it's a vacuum into which the ill-informed can fall with none of the common sense that generally keeps mumsnet on an even keel.

Look at the traffic stats! It goes weeks without a post, other than trolls from eastern european surrogacy agencies. Those posting there would be better served in general 'becoming a parent' chat.

Teenagers & larger families are merging in with parenting

I don’t have teens yet but do have 5 dc. To me they’re both fairly niche topics that will now probably be buried in toddler & baby posts where they would previously had a decent amount of replies from pole pole that have been there (along with any other boards that are be put under it too)

There really should be

They did a few a week or so ago.

I think The Royal Family might have survived, not sure about the others.

Not providing MNetters with a list was deliberate policy (it was questioned then, and MNHQ responded that they're only interested in resomses from within the topic).
