    As long as you bring a big box of choccies and promise to make me a cup of tea, you are most welcome! :rotfl:
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

    But that still involves button clicking more than I am used to....and it makes it incredibly unsettling to a smooth use of the site.

    Then perhaps it's time to step away from the computer and gain some perspective?

    To be moaning about having to click on a virtual button does not make any sense when you have complained on at least two different threads that you are having trouble scrolling up and down the boards.

    And the perspective comment......I think there are a few others on this thread who would be wise to do the same. Do you all completely overreact irl like this too? :confused:

    Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."

    I wonder why it is that some people on these forums think those on the House Price board seem slightly aloof and look down on others?
    Because they don't get the humour.
    WHOOOOSH
    There it goes!

    Hmmm, see this is what I was sort of getting at before.

    I post in an off the wall style, something which the people on the house price section have got used to (well most anyway).

    I wasn't being completely serious about it! Although it is true that it is incredibly unsettling to have to muck about like that.

    The repetitive strain line was joking, bringing a little humour into what was turning into a very serious and sometimes abusive thread.

    I don't want to go, I hate people who flounce off. But this isn't flouncing, this is sadly feeling made homeless. I feel evicted, homeless, forlorn, bereft. I've already felt too out of sorts today to say/do much, either here or in my real life. It's all unsettling.

    PN, I'm not trying to take the mickey, but if you feel this way about a couple of discussion threads being moved from one section of a money-saving internet forum to another do you think it may be time to take a break from the site and get some perspective on life?
