Guest guest Posted February 22, 2001 Report Share Posted February 22, 2001 I agree, l left the DS list because for me there was more bickering than supporting. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2001 Report Share Posted February 22, 2001 I think that everyone respects everyone so I don't know why the monitor has a problem. ===== Friends Till The End __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to imply that I had a problem with anything. However, I read a couple of posts that made me think that perhaps I should reinforce the behavior of being respectful. Not that anyone wasn't being respectful. The discussion was about behavior on different lists...thus, I wanted to make clear what the expectation is here. We've had about 25 new members join in less than two weeks, so it was just a kindly note that was not related to any behavior. There are times when proactive reminders are a good thing. It means that everyone is on the same page. That's all. I apologize if you felt I was admonishing anyone. Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2001 Report Share Posted February 23, 2001 oh okay, sorry for the confussion. I'm sure that if we're all adults, and some teenagers we know the rules. But if we get out of hand, I'm sure that y'll just jump in. . hehe take care --- " Joan E.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Faith, There are a couple of others that I'm on. One is small, but really great people from all over the world, and it's ds families<familieswithdownsyndromekids >; there's < >; And also DS Nodak US<DOWN-SYN@...>; . Nodak is currently very political re the US election Election, but good value if you wade through all that ( as an Aussie, I have enough dramas without getting involved in the Obama/McCain issues ) All the lists do at times have people who get a little too passionate about topics, but these 3 are really my 3 main ones, the others I just keep an eye on,and don't often get too involved with. But there are really great people on them, Good Luck, -- DS list I left the other list. I cannot take the bad language and complete lack of respect there was for each other on that list. Do you know of some other good ones i might JOIN instead...one without MIKE, Bill and a few others please. Faith NY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
