I was waiting for this type of reaction from somebody.

Are you calling me a big tit?

I blocked my youngest daughter. She's a little shit as far as I'm concerned. Haven't seen or heard from her for about 8 years now and really couldn't care less. I have absolutely no feelings for her. I also blocked her husband and kids. Blocking the kids hurt me, but she would use them against me and I wouldn't like that, so I manage life knowing I won't ever see them. I have other kids and grandkids anyway.I tried that and they immediately blocked me!
They also ordered their friends to block me so I couldn't find out anything that way.

A customer of mine who I get on well with used to have her daughter living with her, the daughter was about 20 years old. Anyway whenever I mentioned how her daughter was getting on she would say" good riddance to her, she can rot for all I care." I was taken aback at that,as I thought they got on well. But I never told her the daughter lives by me in Bell Green, and she's a well known druggie and alcoholic. Sad all-round really.I blocked my youngest daughter.

I used to use 'Friends Reunited' too! I actually connected up with several old UK school-mates and work-mates via that site.I started off with Myspace and Friends Reunited. Do either of them still exist? I have no idea what my login details were back then.
There's no need for that because you can send private messages if you want.I tried that and they immediately blocked me!

My first computer was a Commodore 64 for which I paid a small fortune.Ahhhh! Remember the days before social media? Amiga 500. My first computer...……

When was all this? I think I was* behind the times.Had a ZX81 as my first PC, all my mates took the piss as they had ZX Spectrum's :bag:

I posted because someone before me mentioned their lack of contact with their kid. I just followed suit. If you knew why I don't like my daughter, perhaps you might understand how I feel towards her, if you knew even half the story. I will just say a few words like, "drugs", "beatings", "hammer attack", "midnight fleeing from drugs gang", "moving 165 miles away overnight making her family homeless". All this lifestyle put herself and my grandkids in extreme danger. When she eventually let me know where she was, I drove all the way there, only to find she couldn't be arsed to wait in for me even though we'd arranged my visit. There's a lot more, but as you say Rich, maybe this isn't the place, eh?It's sad that you feel that way toward your own Child and even more upsetting that you would think this an appropriate place for that post.
Ha, only with your DNS Cache!When was all this? I think I was* behind the times.
Some would say still is.

That’s incredibly useful evidence. Doesn’t mean changes aren’t necessary but it’s important to take stock and make appropriate changesI think it’s a user experience issue. One of two things will happen, either tools will evolve to allow a better experience without the harms, or people will stop using it if it causes them more harm than good.
I think there’s an element of moral panic about it all TBH. Suicide rates have been pretty constant, even slightly down since it’s introduction:
And almost all happiness measures are also up:
Anxiety has taken a hit, and I think that’s a concern, though the last 2 years have been pretty anxious all round anyway, so hard to say if that’s social media, which starts mid 2000s and really takes off early 2010s:
They find their way nick. The sad thing for me with the Instagram case, other than the tragic death, is that the Dad thinks if she’s not had an Instagram account she’d be alive and takes no responsibility at all. We all need to look at ourselves and do what we can rather than pointing congers everuwhere else and not recognising we are not beholden to chance usually and can take actions and make choices that help
I think that’s right so we can talk to our kids we can explain we have parental responsibilities and that includes checking what’s going on in all their lives including on line. We can set boundaries we can open our ears and eyes to hear and see what they are saying and support and protect themPeople might moan but I will be monitoring everything she does.
If I spot any nonce's or people trying to persuade her to kill herself it would get messy.
You can't after a while though, Nick.People might moan but I will be monitoring everything she does.

I monitored all my daughter's online stuff until she was about 12. After that it is almost impossible and they swap phones at school and use each others.
I remember taking my daughter's phone off her as a punishment for something and then one day I saw the phone in her bedroom. Totally baffled me because I had confiscated it
Went downstairs, had a look and there was her phone.
Someone had given her an identical phone to use while hers was taken.

That's the problem though, Nick.Lock her in a tin foil lined room.
I'll monitor the parents internet too.That's the problem though, Nick.
I made a firm policy of no 18 certificate films when she was between 10-13 (still monitor them now), but she would go around other people's houses and there the parents would just let their kids watch anything.
And at school, like I say, they swap phones. What can you do about that?
I think it'll eventually decline, in fact I think it's already starting. People are over exposed.Like it or loathe it social media is here to stay and will get even more powerful. But when you read about youngsters committing suicide after viewing nasty stuff on Instagram etc, you do think maybe it's more dangerous than we first thought ? We got by okay long before Twitter and Facebook, so my question is : could you live without social media ?
I can't see how people feel comfortable putting so much information online. Pictures of kids is one.I think it'll eventually decline, in fact I think it's already starting. People are over exposed.
I don't do Farcebook, Twatter or similar. I am on Farcebook but it was my wife who set up the account years ago so she could send herself gifts in the games linked to it.I'm dreading my daughter getting a bit older and wanting to use it. At the minute she uses WhatsApp with her mates which is fine but going to make sure she doesn't get into some weird world where she feels like she has to look a certain way or do certain things for likes.
The wife is the film buff. She decides which films they can see as the ratings are not always consistent. We allow our children to drink alcohol at an early age. That isn't to get pissed before anyone says it. But they are not allowed to drink away from us. And so far we have had no problems. They don't go drinking in parks/fields with their friends as it is nothing special to them. My 17 year old doesn't even like alcohol. Drugs? They are brought up knowing to come and see me first if they want to dabble. Only had 2 interested so far. Put one off immediately and the other one tried. So I put him in the environment of drug takers for the day. Nothing hard but he saw what 'soft drugs do. He hasn't touched them since.That's the problem though, Nick.

Depends on the child, Astute.The wife is the film buff. She decides which films they can see as the ratings are not always consistent. We allow our children to drink alcohol at an early age.

Ban everything and they want to try. Take the excitement away and the urge isn't there. Nearly time to start on kids 6 and 7. They are 9 and 10 now. 10 year old daughter is spot on. 9 year old son would be a handful if allowed. He has a weekend without electrical items. Called his teacher an idiot in front of the class on Friday :woot: He will go back to school tomorrow a different child. 2 and a half days of nothing to do will sort him out.
With having 7 kids we have had perfect and we have had difficult. Youngest is slightly difficult.Depends on the child, Astute.
Mine is a good kid, but I have taken all her stuff off her for two weeks and it hasn't made the slightest bit of difference.
And like I say, your missus might well choose the films for them, but you can't control what they see on other people's devices and at school and round other people's houses.
And on the films, I don't just look at the ratings, I always check the IMDB parents guide too. For every film and I also always try and watch them all first too.
