I'm moderate the site next door the adult children board and I keep it spam free I am checking in several times a day to make sure of that
Obviously the moderators here have jumped ship and sadly and I say this very very sincerely I was a member of this board when Betty and John were alive I was a member of this board as well as next door for many many years and it saddens me to see all this spam first they ruined Betty's step board and now this mess
So those of you who want to share it's open season as far as whether you're an adult child or if you're an alcoholic or if you're an Al-Anon it doesn't matter we will welcome you next door and I know that you will feel like you have a home again because all I ask on my board is to be kind and considerate of other members. That's it!
We have a few members and it's a loving and safe place to post so I'm just offering my welcome to all of you that need a place to post and share and feel safe. It's up to you I'm not going to be offended if you don't accept my offer. But I came on here to just look at the posts and I could not believe all the spam and they tried to spam my place next door but I zapped them and got rid of them and they can't post because I'm there watching like a hawk to protect our nest
So anyway I just wanted to say that. You do have a place to go if you want it
Thank you so much Rosie! I'm going to PM the few members that tried to stick this out with me, and let them know you have welcomed us next door. This is a wonderful invitation, as long as it does not offend the acoa membership. Grateful, Lyne
NEVER would anyone next door be offended or inconvenienced by having you good folks join us. Its all about caring and sharing with other 12 steppers. We are ALL here because we got HURT by anothers dysfunctional behavior. Younger. Older. We are ALL in same journey. To find our real selves and to heal from old maladaptive patterns
Proof. Betty was my sponsor up till her death. Im mostly ACOA but she was best sponsor I had. And she was Alanon. I am willing to bet that lots of us are here and/or next door due to nurturing needs not addressed when we were young and for me, I just married into that old dysfunction. I did not know any better at the time
So ALL the folks you want to extend my invite to. All I can say is WELCOME. And only requirement I ask is we show kindness to our fellow travelers. Abuse is one thing I wont allow. But I dont even fear that from you all
Dear Lyne. Let me put it this way... Pain is pain and it doesn't matter to me if it happened to us when we were kids, or when we grew up and married into dysfunction.. pain is pain and the goal is to go back and Trace its roots and how we got non functional as a result and to overcome it... I was 100% sincere when I offered you all a home with us. It's like we're all brothers and sisters in recovery on MIP and I just wanted to reach out and let you all know that you are cared for and wanted
