To think Mumsnet is a load of bollocks?

[lexiebell]

What good advice do you ever get from here really? From everyone person that agrees one will say you are the worst (Mum,Wife,Friend) ever ! So judgemental and would love to know the people who are doing the judgement! Telling people to leave a marriage because of some minor upset, its a joke! Get a bloody life ,Life and Marriage isnt easy,we all get annoyed by stuff,but you dont give up cos the mumsnetters tell you ,RUN ,RUN FOR THE HILLS ,if you have good foundations,have some fight and try and make it work,dont forget sometimes the best most fulfilling route is not the easiest,but the best for you and your kids, we only hear one side on here dont forget ! Parenting is hard ,full stop ! Wether a single parent or otherwise( have been both )vulnerable people will be influenced by the sometimes shit advice on here,just please be careful what you dole out

Personally I’m pleased Mumsnet is it a forum where everyone will go “aw hun you’re a great mum good job mumma” - sometimes people need constructive advice and a good kick up the arse. If people wanna be treated like children there are more ‘mumsy’ forums for that that don’t even allow swearing

Yeah it’s a complete cesspit. Full of entitled bullies who get a kick out of sticking the boot in on multiple threads.

Don’t hold your breath that this thread will be up longer than 5 minutes though. This will be deleted sharpish by MNHQ 🤣

Yet, here you are....

Off you pop then!

Whats constructive tho and how do you onow who is being constructive ?

You are proving the OP’s point with a comment like this.

Off you pop ? Who actually says that even but someone on here 😂😂😂

You're always a bad mother, bad sister or your husband is a loser you need to leave.
Experienced a lot of racism on here too but dressed up in liberal values.
Why are women so angry?

I’ve been here for about 15 years and see this type of thread often (I’ve probably made one at some point).

it’s tricky because it goes from “ltb ad he didn’t put the bins out” to amazing initiatives like wooly hugs, or seeing someone leave the (genuine) bastard and grow,

Yes but meant to “support one another”

You seem very annoyed. Did you take somebody's bad advice from here?

Looool😂

Off you pop.
O do fuck off dear.
Have a biscuit.
Are you on glue?

Classic Mumsnet sayings that make me howl. This entire site is just pure entertainment.

Agree tbh, it's ridiculous now. It didn't used to be this po faced BTW, it was really funny sometimes.
It's just habit though, at least you can read threads and know you are relatively normal

Are we? Said who?

Nethuns is ➡️

I think that's a bit unfair.
I've been here for years, and yes it's increasingly becoming a bit of a cesspit lately, BUT it's also a place you can get great advice.
Whether that be parenting toddlers or teens, getting recipe ideas, not realising you're in an abusive relationship and posting for advice, there's lots of support on here if you're looking in the right places.
Just don't go posting in AIBU and then flouncing when told "yes you are, stop being a knob" or being a bigoted twat waffle and all should be good 😁

It is weird how men are seen as not really human. They are cruel overlords who calculate every move to cause pain and suffering. No character development at all. Occasionally they a super hot, sexy, supportive, gentle great dad who earns millions, like the guys in the made for TV movies that the city girl meets when she goes back to her home town. But they just never seem to be regarded as a actual people with foibles and good bits and shit bits.

Sometimes it’s like that. Other times it has been a life line. I posted yesterday under different name and got some snarky comments - totally uncalled for. It does sting.

But the good has outweighed the bad, some days you just get bad luck with posters who pick apart your brief post. I think you have to be honest and ask yourself whether you’ve flippantly made a snarky comment yourself? I know I’ve been guilty of it.

Just ltb and go no contact with everyone you know, just incase they offend you in the future. It's foolproof.

Kinda depends on how how resilient you are! I are strong enough to filter the poo from the actual solid answers? Do you want people just to tell you your right or are you genuinely looking for alternatives? The value of the page kinda depends on your resilience, openness and ability to filter out the vibe of people you're not concerned with.

It's very tory and southern and lots of people earn upwards of 100k (or think that is not enough money to live on).
I do feel out of place as a skint woman from a rough northern town.
But it can be entertaining

I’ve seen so much support and intelligent advice and genuine care on mumsnet. And the opposite too.

Life’s rich tapestry, right here. So many amazing women contributing.

Well the hills are that way OP! I Don't like football .or the tories and nigel f either. Guess what not on their websites. Lots of women are on serious situations here.its a space where you can sound off and get support. Recently a ^!DH " threw his wife to the floor casing serious injury. 😳 she needs help ASAP. T

I love it and have loads of support at difficult times and great advice too

I've actually found MN so amazingly helpful. I'm a FTM and I've been given great advice about all sorts of challenges (big and minor). I've been told when I'm being silly, I've been given reassurance, I've been praised, I've been told off. It's almost like my online mum.. there is so much wisdom on here, and I am so grateful for it.

There's also mean people, and there's also all sorts of posts that remind me of an agony aunt column in a tabloid, but it's an internet forum so what do you expect? Also, you don't have to read those if you don't want to. You can use the forum for your needs/wants.

I'm a fan of MN and appreciate it exists 👍🏽
