I can perhaps understand that AIBU not right and also 'Telly Addicts' a bit flippant. But why not move to 'Chat'? This issue needs a big audience not to be sidelined or made a single issue.

Hi Sunflower,

Not at all. Many MNHQers have Elderly parents and it is an issue that needs to be discussed, we completely agree.

The thread was moved out of AIBU because it really didn't belong in there. Telly addicts was initially suggested as it was a TV programme that sparked the conversation. Then it was reported again last night as Telly addicts seemed a bit trivial for such a weighty issue. We agreed and moved it to Elderly parents, which is a place for folks to discuss their Elderly parents/relatives.

Threads in chat disappear so we think that it is probably best to leave it where it is.

Please do keep it bumped by posting on it.

Best wishes

@AIBUqatada

Wow, that seems rather prescriptive. Why does HQ get to decide in such detail under which rubric something is discussed?

Hi AIBU,

We don't tend to move threads unless they are reported to us.
This one was reported a few times, so we had to make a judgement call.

Do you think that In the News may be a better place for the thread to live?

Ok, we have moved it to In the news now and we have posted on the thread.

Apologies for the confusion.
