    I don't think it will ever stop imo.

    Some people are so bitter/jealous & think that people are getting something that they are not getting which obviously isn't fair.

    Obviously they only want the good bits ie. the money & not having to work & not the bad parts like not being able to work as you can't leave your house without having a panic attack.


    Why would any mother be jealous of you?

    What life have you got?

    Your kids have no life either because you dont allow it, this is so sad and it makes me almost cry for your confined almost house bound kids.:(

    I dont need means tested benefits if that what you mean by your last sentance, I have many disabilities but my kids come first, Im a mother first and foremost.

    Well done folks, yet another thread on this board reported for closure.

    Would it be worth suggesting you were a BG on here (if you want to be!)? You do have more of an input to the board than any other BG's?
    Gone ... or have I?

    Can I ask once again if D&D could get another board guide! I did ask in the correct section but as yet no response from MSE towers.

  • its hard to be a mother in the sence that u mean when you have agraphobia (as i have had)
    please dont judge illness's that you may not have had as you cant empathise with
    do you realise how crap it makes you feel when you cant just pop to the park or even pick the children up from school
    an then do you realise how even more crap you feel when some one points this out who does not understand
    i was lucky as i had family round the corner that helped me alot sometimes the support is not as available to some

    As a newbie and only recently defined as disabled, I had hoped to gain information and support from others in the same situation.
    I can't believe the nastiness and vitriol being spouted.
    If it is your aim to deter others from joining, you have certainly succeeded in my case
    Thanks but no thanks
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    Please don't let the few troublemakers put you off. :(

    The majority of the people on MSE are very supportive. :)
    I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

    This board is being wrecked by people who can't seem to help having a go at each other, judging who should be claiming what, calling names, falling over themselves to prove they need more help than anyone else. It used to be a supportive place to come and get advice and information and understanding, and that's no longer the case.

    It's really simple, people need to start using the IGNORE FUNCTION and report posts that they feel are abusive to abuse.
    *SIGH*
