bye bye bnb

[tinytoes]

I feel like my time has come...that its time for me to move on to being a mummy unaided by bnb!!!



Lately I've had a couple of stressful threads where its been suggested I shouldnt express an opinion, or where I've felt a little bullied and mis-understood.
I dont like to feel like that, and its stress i certainly dont need in my life as a Mummy.
I've met a few nice ladies thorugh bnb so I'll miss you guys, but I've a big feeling that I was misundestood by many.

It's been the most amazing 18 months of my life and it was - for the most part - fun to share it with you. Good luck with the rest of your parenthoods!!!!!!!!!!

You should always express an opinion!! Sorry you've been made to feel like that... of course we'll understand if you want to leave but we'll miss you loads, and you'd better come back every now and then and let us know how you're getting on x x x

The thing about expressing opinions is that if you do have a strong opinion one way...there are others who will have a strong opinion another way. And you can't expect them not to comment back if they feel as passionately the other way as you do of what you feel is right. I'm not saying this to be mean and I honestly don't want you to leave the forum, we were PG buddies and I do consider you a friend.

I agree with Vickie.... this is exactly that, a forum... You have to be prepared for people defending their own decisions. Shame you feel you have to leave because of that. Take care.

Sorry you feel that way. If this has anything to do with my weaning thread a while ago then I'm sorry.

i am fully prepared for strong opinions. WEll...am I? I dont know. Maybe I'm too soft then.. I just know I have my opinions. They are not radical. I just share them. It is people assuming I am having a go at them, or that I am arguing that stresses me out and makes me want to cry!..(how sad is that?!)... I can say "i am not being personal...I am not directing this at anyone, it is just my opinion..." and can put in lots of smiley faces and hugs and all sorts of stuff and people still come back saying agressive things or assuming I'm some evil hard faced cow who is arguing. Its just not needed.
I just get teh feeling my work here is done )
Bethanylee has my email if anyone wants to keep in touch.
I know Vickie - its been anamazing 18 months

Sorry you feel that way. Unfortunately we aren't always aware of everything that goes on in every thread.
There's a https://www.babyandbump.com/images/bnb-v370/buttons/report-post.gif button. You should always let us know if there is anything going on that you think we should be aware of.

Would be ashame to let the occasional comments stop you from getting the best out of the forum

 

[keelykat]

sorry you feel this way.xx

 

[Vickie]

The thing is with certain topics such as feeding everyone has very strong opinions and feelings. I think it is very easy for things to come off as rude/offensive/a put down over a forum. Even if you do say "I don't mean offense" or "I'm not directing this at anyone" chances are there is someone who feels the direct opposite and will feel the need to defend themselves

I don't think anyone thinks you are evil or a "hard faced cow." I truly hope you reconsider this and decide to stay
