I take offence at the suggestion that I would ever make a post of "you ok hun". I have supported, I have criticised, I have agreed, I have disagreed with some of her posts - but never, ever would I send such a trite post!

I was not implying "you" would! I actually generally agree with your posts on here, I'm sorry if you took my remark personally, it was not meant to be.

It was pointed out earlier in the year that it was possible to identify the OP from her name and from that to find her children's identities, that of the mother, and the children's names, pictures and dates of birth.
I didn't believe it, so I tested it out and found them in under 10 minutes.
I'm sorry if OP has lost a sounding board, but I can understand why this is a concern for all those involved. This is a widely read forum and it doesn't help anyone for their confidentiality to be out of the window when they are either too young to consent, or aren't aware it's happening.

Yes. Agree.

I am aware from when my partner and her son were involved with Social Services that there were quite a lot of rules/etc and I was very peripheral. It was important for all concerned to make sure they complied.

Nonetheless I am very sorry that Mooloo is in the position of having to give up this forum. It seemed to give a lot of support and was an outlet for her feelings. I hope all goes well going forward and that, when the dust has settled, she will be able to return here

Go well, Mooloo

I am honestly gutted for you, this was a space where you could vent and clear your head a little. However saying that and with my recent experience, it is also understandable that you have been asked to stop posting regarding the children...I also tested as Elsien did and found the details in no more than a couple of minutes (this was a while ago when it was first mentioned and as a result, changed some of my own Facebook settings/status uploads as it scared the life out of me)

However, I do think you should continue posting your own stuff whilst remaining neutral/quiet about the boys for your own sanity as without an outlet for your thoughts/joy/experiences, it could be negative for your mental health. I do understand your fear that you will forget yourself and mentioned something you shouldn't but it can be done..maybe put a post it note on the PC to remind yourself? (She says desperately as I enjoy reading about your Portugal exploits and wonder at your sewing expertise)

Since the OPs name has changed to Savvy Sewing I am hopeful she still intends to post about other matters.
At least she won't have a huge committee monitoring her life for her any longer!

So sorry this has happened to you.
Have been supporting you from a distance for a long time.
I hope you still continue to post regarding work and holidays with mum.
Take care

I also hope this thread wont disappear completely. It is a little community with many kind posters . I'm so used to popping in I've had to sit on my hands to stop myself buying a book while trawling the web. I'm on a no more books until I've donated many so not very mse to go looking at them!
Sleep tight all.

Thank you for letting us share your life with you. I hope everything works out well for you and your family. Will miss the updates. Best of luck with your new adventures in your new sewing shed (as I affectionately think of it - your sewing shack). Hope you, your Mum, DGD and the rest all prosper and bloom with good health and success x

I am so sorry that this has happened I do hope you will feel able to continue posting occasionally, to tell us about your sewing and your exploits with you mum.

I wish you strength for the future.

Thanks for the good messages.
I will stop for now. So I can get out of the habit and then maybe I will do a sewing thread ( no pun intended) eventually.
