Yes I thought you can post on here but can't get your shit together. If it was real you wouldn't be posting on Mumsnet surely?

TheMaddHugger · 25/01/2019 02:43

My bad. It's Mid day here in Oz😳

Who knows what they'd do in that situation, maybe she did pm someone an address to call the police. I hope she's safe if it's genuine, I'd prefer it not to be and someone not actually going through it. I think lots of people are feeling really disturbed and worried but there's really little anyone can do but hope she's safe as a MN reader.

Unless she PMd the poster who phoned the police then they were wasting their time. There's nothing the Police can do, certainly not at the moment

Monty27 · 25/01/2019 02:57

How can you report an incident to the police from a post on an anonymous forum? Half way round the world to boot!
Shock

Monty27 · 25/01/2019 03:01

Anyway she could be contacting women's refuges or women's aid to get her out of there
I'm sure the police would assist and take him away or take her and DC's to safety. But no she's posting on Mumsnet. As if.

wonderingme · 25/01/2019 03:03

Can nightwatch hide it or stop it from sending comments to her email inbox??

Every time we comment on it she might be getting notifications which would possibly be a really bad thing and alert him.

If she's sought help she may respond in a few days

If she hasn't... I hope she's secured her email from him.

ANightWatcher · 25/01/2019 03:11

No shed need to adjust her own settings
I doubt MNHQ could do that but NW certainly cant.

We can hide threads if necessary but this one doesnt fall into our remit

wonderingme · 25/01/2019 03:19

Ah bugger.

Right I hope she's okay but I'm going to have to remind myself this is the Internet and take a break for sleeping.

She may have tried to contact women's aid tonight, it's taken me hours to get through before and luckily I was safe enough to keep trying and she might not have wanted to contact the police straight away as you do worry there's no going back if you do (which is a good thing, but a big step to take that she might not have initially been ready for tonight)

Anyone remember the other thread about a woman who couldn't leave that night, her DD was also downstairs, and she avoided responding to any requests about DD all night, after wondering if she'd been raped?

There are just key strking similarities with this one.

Nobody should be advising her to hide in loo though it's classic for getting trapped. She should be downstairs and what is DD doing down there?

Smotheroffive · 25/01/2019 03:22

There's also extremely little trust in police, bearing in mind the consequences if that doesn't do the job (which often it doesn't)

Smotheroffive · 25/01/2019 03:25

Its also not possible to secoond guess a woman's state of mind when feeling trapped and shocked and mistrusting police and others to actually make it stop or safe. There is too much at stake.

Morning, everyone. Thanks for alerting us to this thread. We're in contact with the OP off the boards now and to reassure you, she seems safe this morning.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 25/01/2019 12:52

Thanks Hebe, appreciate the update.

userschmoozer · 25/01/2019 13:10
