Minti Friendship and help and more

Deborahsc2203 by Deborahsc2203 Talking Back(June 2007) (rank 348th)

Ive spoken to great understanding people on minti that have been though what i may be going though at the time and they understand that so means alot to me to know im not alone ,,

mintis is all about life experience some have gone though it others are

going though it and the rest it may be yet to come ,,

other than talking to doctors its a great place to know your NOT alone and it gives me comfort to know this ..

advice for some may not work for all people and for others it does ,I think voteing anyone down cause it didnt work for them is silly cause we are all differnt and maybe later on in life the origional advice just might be the right time for them to read it again and try it again .People are very passionate at what has worked for them cause they care about everyone thats going though hard times and help people know more what they can try to do , does their advice make it wrong cause someone has tried it once ( No)

do we not go to our doctor and ask for help with things and cause the antibiotic didnt work str8 away does that make the medication wrong ( NO) you have to gives things a little time for them to work like everything .

.It takes time to be able to write anything up and people do this i beleive not for stars anyway .

but cause they have a great idea or that they care enough for people to read their own experience and like to help others that are also going though a hard time ,,

imagion if no one wrote anything ,, this place would be empty and we would be back to where we all started without minti and the people here with their experiences ,wondering what to do all over again ,

with peoples advice I am learning something new everyday ,,even if its not relivent to me at the time its  still good to read ..knowledge is a powerful thing .

with answering anyones questions i write what has worked for me if i have been in that spot before .the more help thats there and the more advice that anyone does get is more power to us as mothers and fathers ,, everything in life is trial and error .

and its also great to read what men are going though and their experiences as fathers.

Im finding new friends on here all the time that i can either relate to or help or even just have a chat to at times all driffernt ages , minti and its members are an important asset to our lives an extra hand to reach out to in times of need .

And my door is always open for anyone ...even if i dont know how to help i can be there just to lend an ear or have a great laugh with them.

Ive had a minti member call me up when i was feeling low cause they care , who in life rings up a stranger they have never met .A mother a friend a lady with a huge heart

( thankyou for doing this  ANGIE your a wonderful lady that reached out and held my hand )

and a few others also have been a rock for me ,that have given up their own time for me Thankyou ...Nell also

And i am there also for them if they need me .

No one should be putting anyone down for things on here

we are all here for the same reason HELP and ADVICE and Friendship and Knowledge....And even a good laugh .

I have seem people get into trouble in mintio and as there are so many people involved they have ended up booted when they where not the only people involved. I think this is great advice if only the others would follow threw with it.

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more

When I found Mini I was so suprised at how frendly every one was. It's taken me years to find a place where I'm excepted as who I am and not for what I have or have not got.....

I never seamed to fit into any 'group' I was either too young or my face did not 'click' My Mom  kept telling me that one day I would make good friends and I have here on Mini.  Thank you for starting Mini... It's always the first place I go to when I get onto the computer, to catch up with how every ones getting on....

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more
there ia alot of people on minti that have opened up their hearts to alot of people , we may not meet them you just never know . but its nice to know that people do care and in return you also build up a friendship bond and care about them also , we all come from differnt walks of life but one thing in common is our  love for children .they say it takes a village to raise a child and minti is the village

This is why I come here as there are people who have been there before me or who can relate and maybe help with a problem that I may be having at the moment. This is a great article and very easy to read.

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more

nice article.  I love my mothers' group but it is also great that mum's across the globe go through similar experiences.  we are never alone. 

I love this site!  It is a great system and one to be greatly respected.  There is a decent amount of work in setting up something like this, so I admire the Cookclans, claycooks etc that have put it together and the skills needed to do so.  in between photos, blogs, comments, advice, reward system etc, the programming necessary and the size of the webspace it is quite significant.  On top of that - on e coudn't find a more diversified, more qualified and great mothers' group online.

Thanks, Guys!

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more
I think there has been so much rubbish lately, and you know what i think? IF your friends are true to you, then they will protect you and stand by you through the rough patches!
And you and angie, janice and a few other people have been such true friends!
thanks for sticking by me through the rough times!
Love to you all!
p.s..... nell is a great friend too HEHEHE!

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more

Well done my friend, very well put. That's what makes this site so special, where else can you find true friendship from people whom you have never met and to know that they are true friends. With help, guidance. a shoulder to cry on and an ear to listen to you when needed.

Love Janice

Re: Minti Friendship and help and more

HERE HERE,Why do we come on to minti is it to vote or give little stars or for the competition of it .NO we come on here because we want to share our parenting skills and experiences in raising our children,like me there is a lot of women on here with very low self esteems and it is nice to know that we can be of some assistance to other parents in what we have learnt on our parenting journey.

It is nice to get comment on what others think of our suggestions and advice,but to be voted down just because somebody else may not agree is just rediculous, for some women to even write advice is hard and it is scary to know that somebody may criticize you for your comment or advice and I know on occasions I have started typing advice  or comments and have deleted it all because I wonder what other members are going to think of it.I also like to hear other stories of life and parenting.I know for many minti-ites it is their life line and have made great friends and I am enjoying the site very much.
