I must admit I'm guilty of putting political stuff on FB but I'm very open to an honest and open discussion. I think sharing things that are propaganda and that aren't always true is different and I always challenge others who post things that are against my values. Unfortunately a lot of people aren't open to changing their minds even when faced with facts.

Sorry to hear about your Grandma, hopefully they let her out very soon, its much more comfortable to be in your own home.

I'm a big advocate of people having their own opinion DFD and I enjoy a good debate, not necessarily to change the other person's view, but to ensure their opinion is well balanced and made with a basis of truth not fiction. As you say, some people will never change their minds regardless, but kindness goes a long way in these situations and that was what was lacking from my relative.

Grandma is completely fed up and can't wait to be back in her own home.

I find unfollowing is very handy for people like that on fb, then you dont see their updates come up on your newsfeed so dont have to bite your tongue

I'm definitely considering this trix!! Thanks Xx

DS2 is off school poorly with cold today. I'm also ill but obviously I have to play nurse too. Think we will just snuggle with a film for most of the day.

Snuggle is such a lovely word, it reminds me of Elf my favourite Christmas film

Hope DS2 is feeling better and that Grandma can come home soon.

Thanks everyone, we are both much better today. Grandma still in hospital though .

DH had a review with GP today which was a bit daft as it's the hospital who are in charge of most of his meds, but GP is lovely and it's another box ticked. DH also got a flu jab. He's been Mr Angry again tonight though, which seems a common theme for him at the moment .

Parents Eve for DS2 went fab tonight :j. He's a star Xx

Oh dear sorry to hear DH is angry today, that must be hard for you

Great news that DS2 is doing so well at school though

It's not fun at all Hairy. There is no build to the anger, just 0-60 in two seconds and boom! It's hard to support him as a co-parent when I think he's being too hard on the boys, and it's not nice being on the receiving end either Xx
