Having just read the thread about whether or not we should be ok about male nusery workers taking DDs to the toilet I have to say I am completely shocked at the aggressive, bullying comments that the poor OP received. FWIW I agree that we should not discriminate against males working in childcare but think that a lot of the battering comments were frankly out of order! As I read the thread I had that sick feeling that I recognised from my schooldays when I witnessed someone being bullied! I'm new to MN and have found a lot of the info and threads helpful but am so disappointed that, instead of finding a source that I had hoped would be non-judgemental and supportive, I have just connected myself to more of that cynical nastiness that I am so fed-up with on fb and in the media!

Boxroom is around today too. It must be the troll home's day out to local libraries.

Thanks I sussed at 'bottle feeding lambs'. Steiner was just over egging the pudding, IMO.

WombFrootShoot · 27/05/2010 15:20

She's over on relationships, they're arguing about baked goods.

(She isn't a troll in the traditional sense, she is just scared to leave the smelly fat fucker - poor cow.)
