Can someone please explain to me what is going on?

I have asked MNHQ the following questions but have had no response

I had read on another thread that the reason was due to posters not contributing to other threads - can someone explain as I see plenty of examples of parents using only one topic and there isn't an issue with removing them.

Why was there no warnings given?

There have been other posters banned before for saying much worse and later reinstated

If someone is threatening mumsnet, can you please tell us what exactly for?

Is there such a thing as liability insurance we can agree to take out?

But completely understand why mumsnet feel they don't have a choice on the matter
To be sued is one thing, but to be sued by Percy Bratt....

Oh Justine

"The Tories seem quite interested in doing something about it which is good"

yes of course they are interested
they are interested in anything that will win them votes

As soon as they are in power they will not be interested any more
I bet you

Hi barking

lulu- well thanks...
I have a strong feeling that the message is well and truly out there , has been for some time; that's what this fuss is about iyswim

and ditany
Yes, I understand why they've done it. It just saddens me, you can guess why....

I don't really know what is or isn't allowed to be talked about now... tricky...
I post with another nickname too
so am not always assciated with this madness

yes northern - it was the link to your story and those of others. Thanks for sharing your experience.

northernrefugee39 · 08/07/2008 18:21

Thanks forever. It's on the plans site now. Don't even know if i'm alowed to say this...

Northern - I think you might have misunderstood me, I hope you werent offended by my comment.....

What I meant, was that I was shocked as we nearly ended up there too. Not that it was easy too work out where you were talking about - I figured it out cos I know more than most about this topic iyswim, I doubt most people would be able to

I found your story fascinating btw and I for one am glad that so many more people (including me!) now know about the negative side of steiner education. I for one have learnt a lot from you
