.... which would mean that she could get into every other topic on MN. So why would you want that?

Not that she couldn't look at - or join - MN herself. How old is she? Would you want her to be on MN?

Anonymous website where user names are changed at the drop of a hat and trolls roam freely + children. Plus a PM system... It won't end well!

Nope.

Worst. Idea. Ever.

EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis · 19/09/2017 18:42

She's 10. I explained the reasoning behind not wanting a Kidsnet, she said, "OK."

I wouldn't mind her reading most of MN, she's absolutely fine with the swearing, DH doesn't always manage to stop himself, and she knows not to repeat it. There are a few areas which I wouldn't like her to read about just yet.

Some of the content on here is definitely not for kids aged 10.

RebelRogue · 20/09/2017 19:25

@EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis can you imagine the "stop swearing" threads of kids were actually allowed on here? It's bad enough when they "read upside down,from 3m away while i quickly browse" .

EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis · 20/09/2017 21:01

I only passed the request on, I can understand why she'd like one though. 😂

I like it here because there are no kids Grin

EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis · 20/09/2017 21:05

Me too! 😂

Isn't that called Facebook with a dash of whatsApp?

Sorry but no - it's an adults forum....

Even if you segregate the sites the admin overhead would be huge.

Imagine the safeguarding issues of threads by minors....

You'd have to review pretty much every post....

EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis · 20/09/2017 21:25

I agree wholeheartedly, anyway, she'd have to borrow my phone to go on it, no WiFi at home and no computer.

Whaaat? What next, a kids pub? Glad the blighters darlings aren't on here.

EvilDoctorBallerinaDuckKeidis · 22/09/2017 14:21

I'm enjoying reading these replies out to her! It's okay, she understands why not now. 😂
