I’m really sorry to bring this up, but I’m getting a bit concerned about some of the AMAs

I do genuinely think many are very interesting and I am not trying to imply for a moment anyone has any intentions that are not well meaning.

However, I do think it is naive and misguided for social workers to be giving details away about their cases, adoptive parents about their children and the circumstances leading up to their adoption, family support workers and other professions where confidentiality is surely strict?

It also could potentially impact on the people they are posting about, most of whom are likely to be vulnerable.

I’m not sure what the solution is but I really am uneasy about it.

Hi there everyone,

Thanks so much for letting us know about your concerns.

As always, MNHQ would say that we cannot vouch for the validity of anyone or who they claim to be on the boards. We know this isn't specifically about medical advice, but it seems like an appropriate time to remind you all that we recommend you don't take medical advice from anyone on the boards, without consulting a professional in real life too.

If you think something is untrue, identifying or putting someone at risk in some other way, we do urge you to report it to us - both on AMA and all the other boards. Whilst we appreciate how these safeguarding issues could get out of hand more easily in AMA, they are always a possibility anywhere on the boards and we really appreciate when these are brought to our attention.

If anyone has any further questions about this, please get in touch with MNHQ.
