Mumsnet used to be a really good place to get advice and help from or even seek some support emotionally and mentally for nasty situations some people find themselves in, when life can be challenging and have a sudden change of circumstances and different paths which most of the time is no fault of their own.
Seems as though now it’s all about judging people, making nasty remarks, assumptions and just plain rudeness from strangers who have nothing better to do than troll these forums who put 1 and 4 together and get 9 and start victim shaming or delving into things that aren’t even relevant or related to the original posters post. A lot are very quick to jump in and even start making remarks about personal life’s that they know nothing about.
Then there is the spelling and grammar police who also have to make a show and correct sentences and words and judge them for the way they write on forums too. I just don’t understand it? Then the people who slag off the single mums and tarnish them all with one brush not knowing how they come about their situation, when everyone’s circumstances can change, you have the ones who read a post and completely blow the whole thing out of proportion which starts a debate about something that wasn’t even there.
I thought this forum was meant for advice in all categories/ criteria’s, Without passing judgements and opinions? When someone is asking for help and advice.
And yes I know there are different forums to post in about certain things and some are for debates and opinions but I’ve seen a lot of this in forums that are not meant for that and people just being shitty for no reason.
