[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a discussion forum, not a support forum. In almost every thread there is someone who is posting an opinion that is insensitive to the topic, although some topics are more sensitive than others. Still, if the forum is open, and if every time someone says something that another does not want to hear, then reports it, then demands that it be deleted and it is, it is not an open discussion. Then it becomes an "only say the proper thing" forum, and that would defeat the purpose of a discussion forum. [/quote]

Agreed.  I posted some questions here when my child's school was trying to insist my child was SN (as it turns out, they were wrong) simply trying to understand if the issues they were raising sounded typical of their "diagnoses."  When I dared to question their methods, I was shouted down for pushing back and told that if I wanted "support" I needed to play nice.  Well, I wasn't looking for support.  I was looking for information.  It quickly became obvious that there was no way I could win, because by challenging the notion that my child was SN I was somehow insulting every SN child AND their parents.  I apparently missed the part where this forum was only for politically correct support, since it is clearly listed under "parenting discussion forums."  [/quote]

I had the same experience. Some people want to make the SN board a club, only martyrs allowed. [/quote]
