In the past, we had several narrowly-focused forums for specific types of parenting situations. This resulted in two problems: 1) the forums had very low traffic, and 2) posters interested in family arrangements that weren't covered by those forums would feel left out and lobby for their own forum. We constantly try to balance requests for additional forums with the complaint by many users that we have too many forums. The solution I came up with, which basically didn't please anyone, was to create the "Parenting -- Special Concerns" forum. I would encourage you to post in that forum. If significant traffic is generated by discussions of multiples, that would make justifying a separate forum easier.

Jeff,
Any reason why there isn't a specific parents of twins/multiples forum? I see many posts referring to issues raising multiples, but no specific place for those parents to convene. I know there are multiple parents of multiples websites, but would like seeing it here too.
