Community ages - NEW RULES

[Emily_MHManager]

Hi everyone -

This group is for those who are 35+ years old.

We will be limiting this community to 35+ years old exclusively, with few exceptions (high risk pregnancies, for example). If those exceptions cause problems, then we will address those as they rise. Please, PLEASE, PM me (click on my name here, choose Send Message), and let me know if there is an issue if you are on a mobile device, or use the report feature if you are on a computer or on the full site on a mobile device. (Do not use the Leave a Note option - that is public.)

It helps no one if people are insulting others. We are a support site. There is no room in support for people to call other members immature, insult life choices, life situations, etc. Perhaps they aren't the choices you'd make, but that's okay. I've yet to meet a perfect person.

Support is GIVE and TAKE. It isn't just about giving. We need to make sure that everyone is in a safe place to get the support and info they need, and right now, this community doesn't feel like a safe place for our members that are 35+.

A note - if you are close to 35, or pregnant at 34, and will deliver at 35, etc., you are free to post where you feel most comfortable.

I hope this helps, and I hope we can get back to the wonderful, helpful caring support you all provide each other.

Emily

Great since I am only 30 I am stuck with the "baby daddy" drama club! Not meant to be disrespectful however, I hate wading through the drama to find questions/info I am actually interested in.

It's not that big of a deal....i like reading all comments and  i don't know why this age group think the convo here is way more mature...mostly ppl complaining ..either way I'll still skim through

People "bump" there comments if they have posted it for hours and no one reply in hopes that maybe someone who just came on will see their post and respond

Thank you! Like the first two comments I had almost given up. I'm happy to help out in the social forum all ages. It would have been a sad day when most of the 35+ left the 35+ forum!!

I really didn't care that much about any inmature comment. I like to read what everyone has to say expert or not. I'm 38 yrs and this is my first pregnancy. Sometimes people takes to personal the comments and it should not be like that. I enjoy to much being in this group and I thanks everyone for their advices. By the way, The only comments that I found very inmature are those that post one word like Bump.
