We need a community leader here

They have one in the depression support groups who moderate their forum......why don't we have one? I have always been one up for moderation even back when Thadius used to come to the boards who now is silent or gone. All someone has to do is suggest a CL to DS and we will have ourselves a community leader.

Very well said fiesty, we are a little too much to handle. How can a beeper who has their own issues handle another beepers issues on top of their own issues?

I think a CL would be a good thing for this board. We need some people who know the personal stories and who can step in if someone is really hurting someone else. Currently the ds staff cannot do that for us. I myself today have been under attack and I took it quite personally and I know I am not the only one. I reported the person but they will only get a notice (kinda frustrating) as this person has badgered me in the past under different personas . A lot of meanness on this board could be averted if we had a cl so I am all for it.

WE DON'T NEED A DAMN COMMUNITY LEADER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

None of us is more superior or inferior to anyone. For the most part we are all adults. If ya can't hack the obnoxiousness, then leave us be who we are!!!

We don't even know what a CL does (or at least I don't know). Who says that they will be "superior"?

Well, that is what it feels like to me, that someone who feels they are superior to us would monitor us, chaperone us through our DS experiences. What brought all this crap up, anyway? Guess I was too busy getting laid off to witness the DS Period again on, what was it, Friday?

I'm sorry. I am letting my emotions take control again.

I think a CL might have formed their own personal opinion on any of us already. If there is going to be a CL they need to be non judgemental which could be very hard I think.

I'm going over to the depression board to ask some questions

Maybe it'd be nice to have a CL who isn't a beeper, but a therapist instead. Stable yet understanding.

Probably no easy answer to this whole issue.

    Food Allergy?

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
