Never seen it before.

Thank you to all of you doing something. I have been keeping a watch over this and it is truly awesome to see MN in unity over something!

I will do all I can to help tomorrow but not in the right frame of mind today but wanted ot add my support x

Hope everything OK JARM?

personally, this has made me feel ten years younger today- I love a cause, I ahd forgotten just how much LOL!

Now I know why my lecturer wanted me to do the social politics degree......

I did wonder that, surely everything reaches a certain saturation point and trends come and go.

Dear Joan Humble,

Have deleted the first paragraph as it was nicely written and polite but naughty!

In our modern world, and especially in a town like Blackpool with a high number of families under stress who have moved away from their extended families websites such as Mumsnet and others are a vital source of support and I find it sad and concerning that their existence and the notion of free speech is threatened. I myself have used the website to seek advice on everything from discipline issues, tax credits and support through a difficult divorce. Like many others living in Blackpool I have arrived in this town through difficult circumstances both financial and emotional and have little real life support therefore at times Mumsnet has been a source of support through such difficult times.

I know that you yourself have a family and are a keen supporter of community support for families and I hope you agree with me that such virtual support for families can be as useful as a community centre, mother and toddler group or parenting classes. In fact for many people in need a virtual source of support may be less intimidating and more accessible than plucking up the courage to enter a room full of strange women or making a call for help with the telephone.

I hope there is something you can do to help, if only to raise awareness about the importance of free speech and the tremendous support that many women get from online parenting groups.

Thank you

Yours sincerely,

Peachey - 2nd anniversary of mums death today- hence not a good day. Thank you anyway xxx

NB if you go to Google Trends and search nobody, mumsnet' you get a representation of how many people have searched for each term since about Jan 2005.
