[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 647344, member: 1550"] Every forum has somebody who runs it and it's not easy, from what I understand. Right now runawaybunny, who is very kind, is running it. On every forum I've ever been on, and I've been on many, there are rules and you can't stay on the forum if you break them, kind of like laws that we want our kids to follow or they can end up in jail. Cheryl is being very generous by giving us a say so at all. I feel that if we don't want to take over running the board and t he possible cost of doing so, we should respect her and what she wants to do.This isn't even a rule. It's a practical change. She explained why. WE always have t he option of using our own ways to address our adult children such as Son or Daughter or Drug Abusing Daughter or make up names such as Amy or Mary or Out-Of-Control. I really am puzzled that so many people are disturbed by this. Nobody can please everyone on the board. I never liked Gift from God. I felt it was inappropriate. And Perfect Child? Tongue in cheek or not, I didn't like it, but it's not my monkey, not my circus :) I don't want to run the board. I don't want to be in charge. So I have no dog in this fight :) I usually call 37 by 37 or Son. And I use my grown children's names as they are legal adults now and nobody knows their last names or addresses. Maybe we'll get more traffic with the changes. I always welcome newcomers to post. I think it really helps. Just.My.Two.Cents......and that ain't a pile of gold :p [/QUOTE]
