Find like-minded mums, friends, fun, information and gossip away at an online parent forum that suits you!
Parent discussion boards are places where you can pop in daily, weekly, or whenever you have a free moment to tune into communal chatterboards where parents ‘meet’ online to discuss … everything and anything.
In our society mothers are often isolated – geographically or socially. We need to find an extended social support network. One such place is an online forum.

Handy Tip: Create a username that is easy to remember and use the same one on every site, use the same password as well. Be friendly, gracious, helpful, respectful of difference. Have fun along the way sharing with other mothers at home with small childen feeling the same as you – needing some CHATTER. In time, you’ll get to know the other mothers, and perhaps find locals that you can arrange to meet up with IRL (in Real Life) at a coffee shop to find new friends!
