Is that true? I must admit I have wondered about the origins of Tattle and the fact it is hosted overseas.

Wonder if she’s back under another name? Still a cunt either way.

I think a lot of them genuinely don’t like spending time with their children.Slightly! I’ve just looked again at the main section which shows the live threads, 3 out of 6 are about schools returning. Same old shit being trawled, it’s a cess pit

Same with going to A&E. Unless your head has fallen off or you have accidentally been disembowelled, it's incredibly selfish to take up room in A&E when there are people who are really sick. Put a hot cloth on it and take an aspirin and stop being so pathetic. It's for accidents and emergencies only, not someone like you with a thunderclap headache and chest pain.

They all just want a bit of rough when it comes down to it.

I’ve come to all this back to front as per usual! I saw a thread over on MN pointing to mums.chat then popped over to here. So mums.chat is deffo an offshoot of Tattle? Will join if so. Mumsnet is a ridiculous place, most of the posters over there are full of shit and so nasty, you literally can’t have a conversation or ask for simple advice about anything.
i came to tattle when a certain ‘influencer’ told me to using her #hashtag and it’s such a breath of fresh air where people interact with each other and actually read what is written in a post.
anyone remember Handbag.com? That exploded overnight when they messed around with the site, albeit they weren’t asking for cash but it shows how quickly it can all go wrong.

She could be a bit of a cow at times although I enjoyed the stories of the fantasy life she’d created. The stunningly high achieving kids and the Christmas sheep in fairy lights was a particular fave but I also remember the bedroom. It was the first photo that came up for ‘hotel bedroom’ on Google iirc. I honestly don’t know how she’s still on there. Possibly because she doesn’t start threads (like rainy puddles and alphabet st) and just limits herself to replies.

It’s like if Scottish school holidays were different they wouldn’t believe it either.

Seen some of the posts there:
"Are you Scottish OP?"
I refuse to believe that I share a country with anyone who says shudder picky bits.

Oh boy, Mumsnet. I joined when I was pregnant, many years ago. It was (or felt like) a lovely supportive place back then although that may just have been the threads I was on.
I think it started going downhill when they introduced AIBU and has continued on a downward trajectory ever since. How they have the nerve to ask for subscriptions I do not know.

That’s exactly what they are likeWow I’ve never really delved into Mumsnet before but I just checked out that AIBU thread and Jesus some of them are vile. Some poor woman is asking if it’s unreasonable to want her husband to check in with her and her 4 kids whilst he’s away abroad for the long weekend; the responses are essentially ‘yes you are being unreasonable, why should he be glued to his phone all the time?’
Just imagine loads of bitter old women sat at home not getting any and taking it out on a forum
Oh god why would you go on an anonymous forum to clearly lie about your parenting? It was getting more and more ridiculous!The competitive lunchbox threadsAll the dcs were ‘tall and thin’ and either ate like a horse or survived on plain, home made yoghurt and half a foraged berry. And the MN chicken that would feed 8 people for 5 years (don’t forget to boil the bones for stock!).
It's not all of England. Just the England that is not London. The forum seems extremely London centric. Now I was born in London. It's my favourite city in the world. When I was single it felt like the centre of the universe, full of interesting outward looking people from all over the world. But when I had kids my London became full of sanctimonious wankers who think that anywhere outside London is some weird Medieval backwater. All of those people are on Mumsnet in one breath telling everyone how cosmopolitan they are because they buy groceries from the Ethnic supermarket and then full of ill informed slagging off of any other place because the only time they venture out of London is to travel to their second home where they hole up with their Ocado deliveries. I moved away and it really stands out.

God yeah, it's a ridiculously privileged bunch of people. Or they pretend to be. I think my favourite recent thread was the one about whether being on 60k made you 'well off.' A surprising number of posters were actually insisting that they were poor because they didn't have that much disposable income after paying for school fees and their £2000 mortgage payments, I kid you not.
I've flounced plenty of times, I always seem to manage to post something completely innocuous about family meals or something and then get singled out by some weird member who just goes on and on about how I'm messing my child up somehow. It's completely crazy over there at the moment so I would avoid. Pure hysteria and they're all just winding each other up and up and up!
