Hello Everyone -
I wanted to start this week with a reminder that this board needs to be a supportive refuge for all members to feel welcome. While we do encourage members to engage in healthy debate, it is important that no one feels that they are being personally attacked.
The Rules of Play for the boards state:
A Safe, Well-Lighted Place: We promise that we will try to do everything humanly possible to ensure that our chats and boards are safe, well-lighted places. We will train our Community Leaders to be helpful and friendly.
Respect and Affection: iVillage is a place where it's okay to be yourself -- be that harried, jovial, silly or sad -- as long as you always act with respect for your fellow iVillagers.
Members of this board come from all walks of life, all ages, all careers. It's important to remember this at all times. Posts which question "how could a ______ stay in an abusive relationship and still do their job" can create an un-welcoming feeling on the board.
Thank you for your understanding and for your support of one another!
