For me, this thread at times started to make me feel like I was not being a decent human or role model to my kids, if they came across this and realised I was a part of it, I’d feel a bit ashamed. There’s constructive criticism and some great, like minded posters, but then there’s some real unpleasantness and it doesn’t feel like people are just happy rules and regulations are being applied it feels like glee in taking someone down. Mrs M is a dreadful role model to her children, she’s a terrible influencer, who doesn’t play by the rules and doesn’t care about doing a good job. The crying, the drama, it’s terrible for the children and her life. But that’s her life, her choice. I can choose not to spend my time on threads which are represented by some real unpleasant bitchiness and sexism. I’m one for standing by what I post and being accountable, I don’t want to be embarrassed for being part of something that’s nasty.
Whatever her real feelings and game plan, she will have been in tears, she will have been upset, embarrassed, ashamed (yes then seeking soothing approval from sheep, but that’s not real and she knows it) so those kids will have had an awful week and be taking the brunt and I want no part in any of it.
Loved the banter and the laughs, the piste basher was a highlight! But I read some of this and it’s not just gossip it’s really negative and not a happy place to be.
