Ive changed my name as im peeved off. I asked for a genuine bit of advice about dd2 school, and i got abuse. Everyone is so unfriendly and jump down ur throat. Its very clicky in here and they all stick togethet. At least on netmums u get a fair hearing and gd advice, its crap here.

People come on here for an ego trip and im sick of it. Have a bit if respect and decency for peoples feelings!!! Grrrrr wish it was properly monitored

Horses for courses. I like the brutal honesty and swearing. If it doesn't suit and NM does, use that. BTW I don't like NM but I don't go on there slagging them off. HTH.

Not everyone likes every site. This one doesn't sound right for you.

dimsum123 · 11/10/2013 22:12

Horses for courses. If you prefer netmums just stick with that.

Pagwatch · 11/10/2013 22:12

Yes. It's shit here. We are all wankers. Netmums is much better. I never post here.

Go back to NM Confused

VerySmallSqueak · 11/10/2013 22:13

Can't think why people wouldn't warm to you immediately op Hmm

TheSkiingGardener · 11/10/2013 22:13

Not everyone likes up front opinions and honesty. You get banned on NetMums for anything except fluffiness. If you don't like it, leave.

Fair hearing?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Portofino · 11/10/2013 22:14

Its not like that at all of course. You have either been very unlucky or you are on the wind up.

Alisvolatpropiis · 11/10/2013 22:14

I wouldn't post in AIBU if you're not prepared for the bluntest end of MN.

HTH

Lilacroses · 11/10/2013 22:15

Sorry you had a bad experience. In the few years I've been here I've seen some unhelpful, unkind comments but the vast majority are great. I didn't see your thread so can't comment on that but I hope things have improved for your son.

chosenone · 11/10/2013 22:17

You're either one or the other tbh. Nethuns seems sickly sugary bollocks to me and people not as bright on a different level to here. Like breeds like and I like the honest, sometimes acervic adcuse ive had here.

chosenone · 11/10/2013 22:18
