I have had custody of my 14 year old grandson for 3 years due to his mothers neglect.He too was looking after younger siblings.(not my daughters child)so it does still happen now.Never say you will not see her again.I say that to my grandson as he has never heard from his mother since. Annie

Polly Poppet, if anything is to go by her/his behavour on other threads, it is likely she/he will crawl back to where they came from, only to resurrect their head on another thread, being just as obnoxious and rude.
Amy is not as new and innocent as she/he would like us to believe, and certainly knows the way around the boards.

Julia never have I posted that I am new can I join in the fun ..so sorry you are WRONG... I have said I have been a member since November ,..I have no board name that IS my name ..and no I have not run away ..but do not sit on genes all day waiting for replies unlike some ...and Rose as for saying that fresh blood on the boards is welcome NO not true they are simply accused of being an old member ,and as for people saying I seem to know my way around .really ? well yes do you actually think this site is difficult to navigate? lol

Hi Julia i have seen her comments on other threads and she has never said a kind word to anyone asking for advice or support all her answers have ben attacking and vile like she has done here to footie i never usually get involved but attacking a person that is clearly hurting i think is awful

No Amy I don't think this site is hard to navigate...not even for someone who has been here only 9 months ( yes there are several Amys ..one who did say she was new) ... but very odd that you should post so little ( and that with no enjoyment it seems lol) but remember Footies age so readily that it trips off your tongue...

New members are welcomed, most DO tend not to be so dogmatic, or unfriendly if they actually wish to become part of the 'community'.. don't you think?

amy how do you know that footie is not hurting have you read her posting if you have nothing nice to say or offer no support to footie why comment at all

Amy

Amy Report 15 Aug 2010 13:56

No Rose a new member gets no chance , and I have posted on other threads ordinary stuff , BUT yes that is overlooked.

Julia

Julia Report 15 Aug 2010 13:59

Despite your protestations Amy, you did make that remark along with the information that you had only been a member since November. I doubt very much that you number bears that out. November which year, I ask.
I said it at the time you posted on my thread, that you are a come-back kid, and I will never alter, and another member also posted that she was familiar with you style of posting. So, not only me.
As for " clearly hurting", why shouldn't even 'footie' hurt.
The point is, everyone on here has sussed you for what you are, yet you still keep posting spurious remark about prople.
As I told your No. 1 fan, oviously your only fan, the other day, go and crawl back under you stone.

Rambling Report 15 Aug 2010 14:00

Amy, you have been here long enough to know WHY members might be suspicious...with all the fake names that have been used to allow members to abuse other people?

Jane Report 15 Aug 2010 14:00

Well I will ignore Amy's comments and just say ...Footie well done you for looking after your sister.I am sorry you are not in touch with her anymore,and I am sure you are thinking of her on her Birthday.It is a shame when families part for whatever reason.As others have said never say never.
I think it's far more common than most of us realise ,children helping bring up siblings.A tough job !

Julia November LAST YEAR ... and if you are suggesting that is not true then you are not as smart as you want everyone to think .because that is FACT ..not you guessing out of spite .;and read back the remarks on this thread .seems to me that you are all chastising me for something you all love doing .. so are you all NICE then ? really? read your comments lol

As others have said Footie, never say never in time you may be reunited with your sister.
I too had an older sister that helped looked after 4 of us, me being the youngest as Mum had 4 babes in 3 1/2 yrs.She sister is like a second mother to me.
Hugs to you Footie

amy what posting have i said anything to you that has been spiteful or nasty all i asked was why you feel the need to attack others
as long as i have been on these boards i have never said a nasty thing to anyone

I don't think anyone is throwing doubt on you opening your account in November Amy, though I do hope you have made great steps with your tree as you don't seem to have spent the time posting on the boards , so hard to see where your "ordinary" comments are :)
