Welcome to the Asian and Pacific Island Families group! Please follow these guidelines to make your experience here pleasant for everyone!

When posting or replying to a post:

Be respectful.

Questions regarding personal situations are acceptable, however personal attacks are not! It's OK to disagree, as long as discussion does not become inflammatory. - Remember it's OK to address the post, but do not attack the poster. Violators will be warned and repeated violations will result in members being unsubscribed. Posters who are perceived as being disrespectful, rude, or overly judgmental about the views of others will be warned.

- Advertising and spam is not permitted here and will be promptly removed.

- All topics are open for discussion. It's very helpful when the subject line gives a snippet of what the post is about. Change subject headings when appropriate, and make your subject line descriptive of the main focus of your message. If you are replying to an on-going thread, but are changing the focus, make the subject line reflect that, i.e. "Individual's Screen Name [was: Re: my rant, etc.]"

- - Cross-Posting of general information, resources and current events is allowed. - Cross-Posting of conversations is not allowed, including opinions unpublished in other areas, unless with express permission by the author.
