  • Is there not another school near you ? I don't think I would like my kids to go to a school where it matters what mums and dads have and do ...they should be concentrating on their education and enjoy being children they will all have the worries and hang ups us adults have in life soon enough without having to deal with it at school age ...
    BR as of 26th April 2007 and feeling 10 years younger :T

    If only ex could be sorted as easily :wall:

    If you are not facing BRY then why even look on here or post? They must have some real issues in their own lives to deal with surely?
    To be fair to them, I started looking at BR forums months before I decided to take the CCCS advice & go ahead with it. Sometimes people who aren't facing it yet (or aren't able to face it yet) will look at forums to see what's involved, what help's available etc. Sometimes they don't need the help themselves, but know someone who does. :)

    I'm not facing bankruptcy, in fact I paid off my debts, but I still post here.

    When this sub board first started lots of the people who I had chatted with on the DFW board came across. So, I come over to chat and help out when I can. Some questions I know nothing at all about, so I don't offer and opinion. Other things which I do know about or can find out a definitive answer, I will answer.

    There are lots of things which I'm not planning on doing, going bankrupt, buying a house, getting a loan, but I still wander about the forums and have a read. It's interesting to listen to the issues other people are facing, and when I can help, I do.

    I think lots of people do the same, just because I don't plan on bankruptcy doesn't mean it will never happen to me. Never say Never, so at least if my business did go @rse upwards, I will be prepared.

    If I'd known 5-10 years ago what I'd have to face up to this year, I'd never have had to go BR this March. And but for the chance to earn some extra money that covered my fees, I dread to think how I'd have copied with creditors now. Forewarned is forearmed, as the saying goes. :)
