I think that you lot are really uncaring and ignorant. I have read a thread where nearly all the mums have maybe a young girl feel unwanted and then went on to bitch about it.

I hope that your children become young parents so you know how it feels because you have some sort of problem with it. I think that use need to get a life and think about others. why not have a young parent section?

If it would help a lot of young parents relate to each other.

I think you all need to have a good look in the mirror.

OH by the way I love NETMUMS and the tickers Smile

You're not being pushed out. You said you don't like it here, you do like it elsewhere.

We are offering the very helpful suggestion that if you like it there you should go there.

Seee how friendly and helpful we are? :)

TheCoalitionNeedsYou · 24/08/2010 12:13

What? This is a parenting site!? I just come here for the economics and religion. And bitching.

StuckInTheMiddleWithYou · 24/08/2010 12:13

"im not abusing anyone"

Apart from the English language.

squigglywig · 24/08/2010 12:13

You are either not looking, or deliberately talking nonsense. At any given time there are at least 3 or 4 threads in active convos marked support. Not to mention all the ones not marked that way, but are.

Stop reading AIBU if it pisses you off (sometimes it's a little too cold comfort for my liking at that particular moment) and find something else to read/talk about.

Look at the unanswered threads and see if you could offer someone else some support?

Goblinchild · 24/08/2010 12:13

You joined the site ages ago? In your profile it says you joined in 2010. So either you've namechanged, you are untruthful or you really are very, very young.
If this site is not for you, then leave and find somewhere you will be happier, feel respected and at home.
What is the point of your posting here?
Does it entertain you?

SirBoobAlot · 24/08/2010 12:14

You're not being pushed out - you've said you don't like it. So go elsewhere.

Or do you just like to hang around and start arguments so you can screech "See, I told you so! Bitches!", jump up and down and point? Hmm

cupcakesandbunting · 24/08/2010 12:14

Why do people list "having a laugh" as an interest? It's not, it's a facial expression

and

Well "abuse" should be just your thing, given your choice of literature.

StuckintheMiddle; will you marry me?

Ilythia · 24/08/2010 12:15

Someone remind me, when do the school's go back?

Goblinchild · 24/08/2010 12:15

There's a lot of support for the use of accurate grammar and punctuation, which, if you are still in education, might be of some help to you.

missbeehiving · 24/08/2010 12:15

Have we got to the "nest of vipers" bit yet?

SirBoobAlot · 24/08/2010 12:16

And right now you're ruining it for the rest of us.

So bugger off, there's a love.

Lulumaam put it very well.

MN is obviously not for everyone, just like NM isn't for everyone.

If you're just seeing bitchiness maybe - you're posting in the more controversial sections (AIBU in particular) or you're looking for it. Yes, some MNers are particularly, erm, fiesty, but that doesn't apply to everyone. I've been hanging about here for freaking years and have seen all sorts going down, but I wouldn't say that MN is a predominantly bitchy site.

SirBoobAlot · 24/08/2010 12:18

You're more than welcome

Bye, now!

BornToFolk · 24/08/2010 12:19

You've started a bitchy thread. People are being bitchy. Are you surprised? Or glad of the opportunity to prove how bitchy everyone is? Hmm

Lulumaam · 24/08/2010 12:19

some people might be rude and sarcy, the vast majority aren't

i've been on mN for years now, apart from teh odd run in, i don't get this thing of bullying/being pushed out etc..

if you don't feel comfrotable, then instead of posting how crap it all is, find threads you are comfortable on

there are threads about everything from camping to cooking, pushchair obsessions and everything else
