I have met NDG; in fact, I know her mother, too.
I think that this is a pointless thread. NDG has been far more self-revealing in her contributions to the MSE forums - both with text and images - than I would consider prudent but everyone has to learn these things in their own time and in their own way. I am sorry that some sicko threatened her son. There are some very unpleasant people on the web, and this forum can be read by anyone. Everyone needs to remember that.YouGov: £50 and £50 and £5 Amazon voucher received;
PPI successfully reclaimed: £7,575.32 (Lloyds TSB plc); £3,803.52 (Egg card); £3,109.88 (Egg loans)0 -
I can assure you that she is most def real and on top of that, everything she has said about her family and the careers are also true.
She also doesn't shove her standing down peoples throats to make them feel inferior, rather she helps out her fellow man (or woman!) with kindness in her heart.
Unlike someone else who just loves to shove the fact they have a beautiful home etc down everyone elses.
If she's so wonderful - why does she get death threats? A misunderstanding ? I only ask 'cos I don't know.0 -

I hope you do not get told you are blaming her and using the "Short Skirt defence" for posting that.
I do not know her but I did say she had posted a bit to many personal details IMHO but got told I was blaming her.
I agree with you you need to hide your personal info, as you have no idea who could be seeing it. This is not excusing the people who do use it to threaten or upset people, but to try and protect yourself from being a target.0 -

Posting too many personal details and photos etc AND being provocative is dumb. I'd go nuts with my children for being so foolish. I'd also ask my children how they could have not realised they were being provocative, if indeed they were?
Doesn't excuse people being threatening however.0 -

Because there are some very very sad people on here.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.

I think it's important. Children are taught to be safe on the net, maybe some adults don't know how to be because they were never taught?0 -

Whether it was all true or not it seemed very odd to keep mentioning it; especially when some people positively dislike barristers.:rotfl:
She also posted pictures of her son (if that was her son - this is the WWW don't forget) and even posted rather boring pictures of her Daddy's house in Kent.
She could be a real true-life person - or she could be a nutcase. As far as I know no-one has ever met her - not even old Generali - who arranged a goodbye meet up round the corner to where she lived and she never attended. In fact, I don't think ANYONE attended!:eek:
If NDG really is a barrister (of which I'm not convinced) she's one to be avoided. She's rather revealing shall we say!;) with no foresight - and a penchance to brag.
If she actually has stopped posting due to receiving a threatening PM (and who knows how true THAT is?) she's behaving extremely irrational. You don't close the door after the horse has bolted. And she must know the Web is full of Nuts spouting empty threats. As if some stranger is going to send a message from their PC and threaten to kill someone's son when they know they'll be traced???? Come on!
I find it all very dramatic and hard to believe. Sounds more like an attention seeking exercise.
You pathetic cretin. I think you are the one with the attention seeking problem.I am a Mortgage Consultant and don't like to be told what I can and can't put in a signature so long as it's legal and truthful.0 -

Not as far as I am aware.
I have received pm's in the past regarding my current status and they have not been exactly complimentary...I tend to ignore them but any threats to my children would leave me feeling rather eek.We made it!
