there is a big hole in the topics and no where to post once you child is an adult and you are facing the terror of post 19.

lol, shame it isn't around special needs somewhere though

2shoes · 08/05/2012 17:20

trouble withe SN is that if you don't fit, you don't belong

Hi 2shoes,

Thanks for the suggestion, we will take a look.

Anyone else agree?

Yes

DazR · 08/05/2012 18:46

yes

Yes- as ds1 gets older (hits his teens December) we eye up the future systems and realise how different they are, I can absolutely see the need for this

Hello. Is this thread a result of the thread we started in SN, 2shoes?

Because, if so, we hope you haven't got the wrong end of the stick.

The idea of the thread in SN was to consult all Mumsnetters who use the SN boards which topics, if any, were underused and not worth keeping, and which topics - including possible new ones - should remain.

If you'd like to see a post-16 SN topic, there's no reason why we shouldn't have one...

I no longer use the sn board as I don't fit there. which Is why I posted here.
I do wonder if it would be and idea if it was seperate from the sn children part though as once you are post 19 you are an adult.

Think it would be a great idea DS is going to be 18 soon and kids section is no good for me.

Sorry to hear you feel that, 2shoes. That's a sad post to read Sad

There certainly should be a place within SN where you (and others) could post about SN young adults. We'll add that to the new mix.

I did think it might be good to be linked to the adult part of sn,
