Just a quick post to say I have left the group.

The recent thread has helped cement my thoughts a little.

dd2 is wailing and screaming over somethign inconsequential, and as a result I have managed ot leave the group without posting to say I am going. sorry.

Well said Lougle,Goblin.Justa.
I'm just not keen on Facebook (old fogey emocion) and I don't want all the 'old' posters leaving. I was happy here but am now feeling really unsettled and sad. I am missing a lot of people who always gave great advice......... (shuffles off into the distance)

devientenigma · 08/02/2011 21:18

you know I have been here for years, I try to give advice as and when, I think I am not that popular as I don't give much advice as such.....but then you can't help others, if you can't help yourself!!

Not really, I like the head. I am not naive you know.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 08/02/2011 21:26

anyway, I think the bottom line is, people should post where they like and where they feel comfortable, there is no need to defend one's choices and both groups can co-exist

I just hope experienced people continue to post on here too. I've found SN:children invaluable over the past few months, and as I'm not on FB or any other web-based group, this is the only place I feel comfortable talking about my DS and seeking other's advice and opinions.

TBH I've never got that feling from FC, but maybe that is because I was never around when Moldies were about.

I have found FC to be quite helpful, and have been able to get advice on there.

SNMN has been a bit scary recently, as has the rest of the MN. It has reminded me that it is an open forum, so anyone and everyone can read my posts. Not that I post anything I wouldn't discuss in RL. SO I;ve been lying low, but have tried to help on the odd thread. Like a few people I often feel I'm winging it as I've not really had many issues that needd fighting for (touch wood).

I just hope everything calms down on the SN board. I want it to be back to how it was, a haven for us parents/carers.

Can I have your number on speed dial Lougle?

Lougle · 08/02/2011 22:14

LOL - 0901 434 4455 - it's premium rate though

Lougle · 08/02/2011 22:15

That number is false, btw, but please don't phone it, in case it is actually a sex chat line

5inthebed · 08/02/2011 22:17

haha! I might just try it.

devientenigma · 08/02/2011 22:17

I wonder how lougle knew what the number was really x

Lougle · 08/02/2011 22:30

I don't, DE, but I'm not going to risk finding out

(if any of you do, let me know)
