Domestic Problems

[Penguin86]

I just think there should be a safe place on the forum for people to talk about their problems without being chastised for it.

Past or present.

Basically someone got annoyed because a thread went off topic because a poster in the thread cried for help over her domestic problems so this thread is so people have a place to vent

I think thats a brilliant idea Penguin86 well done for starting this thread.
I've noticed myself that sometimes people can be a bit censorious when others bring up personal problems or personal information on different threads.
Not to say that people are judgy as most tattlers are a warm and understanding bunch imo but usually just out of a fear of not derailing a thread or in case the moderaters get involved or in case the information/ personal stories could potentially trigger someone else?
I know thats been the case with me as well (i once went off on a bit of a tangent and people were understanding but i think a few of them wondered if it was relevant to the general topic) so i think this is a great idea of having a safe space where people can be free to say whats really on their mind or even vent if they feel the need.
Great idea

This is incredibly vague. What sort of problems would merit being chastised?

This is a good idea but I think it would help if the thread was pinned and maybe put in issues.
More than ever due to the new lockdowns victims of domestic violence need to speak out.
