To want to set the record straight about the Cedar Falls Nurse In

Mamagiraffe · 14/07/2014 13:27

I am organising the peaceful protest OUTSIDE THE GATES of Cedar Falls. The protest is not taking place because Victoria tried to take an under 16 to an age-restricted place expecting special treatment it is because the spa have cancelled her booking rather than allowing her to make alternative arrangements. Whatever has happened in the past is immaterial and I am horrified by the muck-raking and bullying instigated here last night. I, personally, do not condone the online attack on their Facebook page but that is of course up to the individual., I have also requested members of the event to remove any they may have already posted but I have no power to do so. For those who are uninformed breastfeeding at 1 is not only recommended but it aids nutrition, soothing and attachment- for Victoria's child they may or may not have required a feed during this weekend but provision needed to be in place to facilitate this and it would be unfair for the child not to ensure this is possible, this does not mean that a nursing mother must be sequestered away from living a normal adult life for the duration. The rights regarding discrimination is to protect the right of the breastfeeding mother to do so. I won't be returning here to fight the fight but as MNHQ deleted the last thread I have had to start my own to give you my own twopence'th if anybody wants to contact us for more information the email address is [email protected]

"Toddlers do these things"

Mine never did.

Still, I was an evil mummy who used reins or a pushchair so that they couldn't do such things.

I'm a tad disappointed my children are grown up. If they were toddlers I could have hours of fun, neglecting to supervise them properly when out shopping and then whinging about it on Internet forums. Those of us who raised our children before the mushrooming of social media have missed out. I cry discrimination.

Did you see this answer?

uch an event probably should be reported to the Health and Safety Executive for investigation BEFORE a child suffers serious or permanent damage. Saying sorry after another such incident would not bear any respect, and probably this report in public would be found by our old friend Mr Google if a legal case resulted.........

Just scared Dd with snorts of laughter, must go to the play now TTFN

JerseySpud · 14/07/2014 15:51

Yes because this isnt going to give breastfeeding a bad name is it...

SiennaBlake · 14/07/2014 15:51

Oh god I didn't spot the mother and father getting involved too on my last read! Grin No wonder she's a bit of a twat.

sashh · 14/07/2014 15:52

Followed by

If everyone sent them a message via their message system on FB they would very quickly get the hint that many people are concerned at their lack of action.....

Is anyone else weeing a pattern?

OooOooTheMonkey · 14/07/2014 15:52

So. In summary, Cosmic fanjo lady has

  1. created a stink about having her (free) booking cancelled because she wanted to bring her toddler into an over 16 venue.
  2. posted it on her business page to her thousand followers and asked them to leave reviews on cedar falls website and therefore tarnish their name.
  3. drip fed a load more info and subsequently more info about her being a serial complainer and general PITA.
  4. got upset with the thread on MN, even though she linked it to the sit in FB page. Got upset about HER business being damaged by this. Oh the irony.
  5. asked MNHQ to delete thread which they did as it does contravene their Ts and Cs WRT linking her personal page (even though SHE started this in the first place by putting it on the internet.)
  6. deletes her business page and the sit in page so no one can read the bullshit.

Have I missed anything?!

Stinkle · 14/07/2014 15:52

The child got his head stuck? With 2 adults supervising?

2 adults couldn't stop a child jamming his head in a hand dryer and that's John Lewis's fault?

This gets madder

My DD got her hand stuck in a paper towel dispenser in our local pub. One of those stupid things that kids do. No one died, she shouldn't have been poking her hand in there and I should have eyes in the back of my head been supervising her more closely. Never occurred to me to go and berate the pub's owners

vindscreenviper · 14/07/2014 15:52

There's no point Weird, the bf mum and her family have been all over the Internet deleting blogs/fb comments & tweets, covering up their shit like a cat in a litter tray.

Have fun Smile hopefully we'll be here when you get back Grin

SiennaBlake · 14/07/2014 15:52

Oooh

If everyone sent them a message via their message system on FB they would very quickly get the hint that many people are concerned at their lack of action....., click on the John Lewis in the first reply from _ in this thread and then send them a message.

Not the first time they've tried to get everyone on the attack!

Anarchy99 · 14/07/2014 15:53

weeing a pattern ? Are we back to the sparkly fanjo pads again? Grin

SiennaBlake · 14/07/2014 15:53

"6) deletes her business page and the sit in page so no one can read the bullshit. "

No, her business page is still there, it's just not called 'Sew Entitled' (and never was!). If I told you want it was called, this thread might go poof :(

firesidechat · 14/07/2014 15:56

My eternal thanks for starting this thread OP. I was wondering how to say something without starting my own and opening another can of worms.

I've been incandescent with rage about the previous thread getting deleted and seriously considering a protest of my own. Only problem was the protest would have consisted of deleting my account and don't think I'm anywhere near important enough for MN hq to care.

Unfortunately I don't think the OP will back down any time soon - invested too much of her credibility now.

Valpollicella · 14/07/2014 15:56

Her business page is still there OoOoo - it's been altered on this thread so the posts don't get deleted...

MammaTJ · 14/07/2014 15:57

I entered the competition.

I do not have any children who need breast feeding.

I wonder if I can have the unused prize!

WeirdCatLady · 14/07/2014 15:58

Boak! My thanks to those who pm'd me. But my god! Oh. My. God.

I'm fairly hippy dippy, I have chickens in my back garden, I enjoy baking and own a sewing machine but good lord I draw the line at reusable tie dyed sparkly lady-garden towels. Bluergh!

OooOooTheMonkey · 14/07/2014 15:58

Thank god for that Val. I need a galaxy in my pants like I need a hole in my head

Pumpkinpositive · 14/07/2014 15:58

6) deletes her business page and the sit in page so no one can read the bullshit.

Nope, the business page is definitely still there.

She has removed the signposting to CF post though.

sashh · 14/07/2014 15:58

Seeing not weeing - but hey on a tie died fanjo pack it might make a pretty pattern

D0oinMeCleanin · 14/07/2014 16:00
