My thoughts in Paragraph form.

This site is about Moms getting together and supporting each other through all the hard times. Its Cafemom and we've made it into a Jerry Springer show judging every little thing we can about another moms parenting choices.

I came here for support and I do get it, however when I mention something that another mom doesn't approve of, or something another mom doesn't support, I get bashed.

Its really hard.

When we come here for advice or help, we need help. I'm pretty sure all of us have been bashed. Its pointless mamas!

Can't we just put our differences aside and support each other through thick and thin like adults? Cant we just be fellow moms helping other moms?

Its not hard to not bash others. Just hold your tongue and if you cant, then move on. Away from the post.

It all comes back to the saying " If you cant say anything nice, don't say anything at all."

When I come here for advice or help, I second guess my decision to ask you mamas because I fear I will be bashed and that instead of help me, you will make me feel worse.

Thats not what this site is for! Its for support. If we must argue, can we do it in a civil manner? Lets not call names, degrade one another. Lets be civil!

We are all probably teaching our kids about respect and not judging others, and they best way to teach is to do.

I just hope this site becomes everything it was planned to be. A large support group for mommas.

I agree, but we all know women are very nasty. On here and in real life. Giving you a bump!

I agree with you wholeheartedly!  Sorry you're having troubles, Sweetie!  Sounds like you're dealing with it as best as you can, and trying to be mature when others are not.

Sending you love and a big hug, Rachel!

Your sister in Christ, Wanda
