For me, it's the ignorance on vaccinations and the belief that measles is just a regular childhood disease. Makes me want to beat people with a large stick.

BreakingDad- there are many undiagnosed adults and young people who end up "self-medicating". You don't have to read about something to notice a particular effect.

DS1 is well medicated, as far as is possible without undesirable side effects, but I've nticed that he tends to reach for something sweet when he's focussing on something. A bit like his mum who rather likes a few pieces of chocolate to clear a head full of cotton wool.

people who use threads like these to attention seek and attack

Ah but the evil bin thieves can remove number stickers easily.

Thanks to everyone who reported this thread.

Our This Is My Child campaign has lots of information about the ways that people can make life a bit easier for disabled people and their carers. Mumsnet's aim is to make parents' lives easier, and we strongly believe that this includes all parents caring for children with disabilities, as well as all parents who have disabilities themselves.

A central aim of the campaign is to dispel common myths that surround special needs and behaviour, and how we can challenge those assumptions.

The last thing we want to do is stifle conversation and debate, but we ask you to be mindful of what you post on threads such as this one.

i judge young people who go out clubbing in the middle of winter with no coat on.

squoosh · 29/04/2015 16:33

People who go to Ronan Keating gigs. Especially if they've paid their own money to do so.

shrunkenhead · 29/04/2015 16:34

Why are people reporting this thread? Thought it was about what makes people judgy....?! Don't ask the question if you don't want to know! Oh dear.

Samcro · 29/04/2015 16:36

perhaps because the posts about sn were reported?? then mn hq will be duty bound to come on here and post a link to the crappy campaign...as if that will change anything
(yep I judge that)

Nayville · 29/04/2015 16:37

The judgy thread hath been judged Grin

shrunkenhead · 29/04/2015 16:39

Ah right wondered why that popped up. I won't say another word about it. And neither should anyone else. Lessons have been learned.

Arsenic · 29/04/2015 16:39

Oh really shrunken? Hmm

So now that you've asked why people are reporting, I can freely opine that it's probably due to your offensive disablist twattery, can I?

Becasue people shouldn't ask if they don't want to know right?

MythicalChicken · 29/04/2015 16:41

People with immaculate homes whose children eat shit, processed food. You have nothing to be smug about.

Samcro · 29/04/2015 16:46

Arsenic Grin

VirginiaTonic · 29/04/2015 16:49

Dog poo leavers!

Smokers who smoke in the company of non smokers!

Parents who feed their kids crap.

People who park transit vans outside my house for the weekend who don't even live on my street.

People who vote UKIP/BNP or who vote for a party because 'thats who they've always voted for' without reading their current policies.

The people on the bus that stink and are clearly unclean!

theDudesmummy · 29/04/2015 16:59

Samcro the "crappy campaign"? That is just plain nasty, sorry. Reporting.

theDudesmummy · 29/04/2015 17:00

And that is the first time I have ever reported a post in nine years on MN.

lambsie · 29/04/2015 17:03

I think you have misunderstood what samcro meant.

theDudesmummy · 29/04/2015 17:04

How so?

ASorcererIsAWizardSquared · 29/04/2015 17:04

dudes, you know fuck all about Samcro, she has some very valid reasons for not liking the ECM campaign, why don't you try leaving her alone!

squoosh · 29/04/2015 17:06

Dudes misunderstood but with good intentions. No need to shout at her.

lambsie · 29/04/2015 17:06

I think she means it was uneffective.

ouryve · 29/04/2015 17:06

I think Samcro was trying to point out how ineffectual it's been.

Samcro · 29/04/2015 17:10

report away, mn hq are aware of my feelings about it. so I am sure it will come as no surprise to them.

mrsnlw2012 · 29/04/2015 17:15

I regularly get looks because my child is barefoot when out and about. He reguarly takes his socks off (he is only 8.5m though) so much so, if its too warm for tights, i just let him go barefoot....

Arsenic · 29/04/2015 17:16

I think samcro is entitled to a view on the campaign.

What are you reporting for? Personal attack? On the campaign?
