How about sections on age group (i.e. infant, toddler, on up)? I know everyone can post on their playgroups board, but some of them are so clicky that you never get any responses. Just thought I would put my 2 cents in (for what it is worth!).

What a great idea. Now we just need to remove some folders that are not being used to make room for this.
Thanks for the idea.

Perhaps since that "what are you reading..." thread got so much of a response, "book club" would make a good new folder? I don't know how exactly the book club could be organized... but I'd love to be a part of that

I know that there is already an AP board but it tends to be more of a discussion board. Or atleast it was when I used to post. How about an attachment parenting section on here for those AP SAHM/D's?!

Hi.

I have read the other 7 posts, and here is my 2 cents...

You have great suggestions on what to add. In my opinion, what could be removed is the following...

#1- The Memeber to member board. Hasn't been used since June 9. All questions posted on there are "Any SAHM from .....?"

#2- General Health Board. Hasn't been used since May 10. The questions people ask, are the same questions we all ask on the main board. It seems redundant to me. I never look at that board. If I have a medical question to ask, I the people on the main board, at least I know it will be looked at!!!

#3- Explore IVillage Board - I have a feeling this one is "mandatory, as most boards have it. But all it seems to be is CL's from other boards trying to lure people to different settings, ie, stop smoking, lose weight, ect. LOL... just a pet peeve with me, I would LOVE to see that board banned!!!! Anyone at anytime can click on the heading at the beggining of the site and hit "parents places message boards" or go to ivillage home and access all other boards, non parent related.



Anyways,

I do love the idea of a book club Folder, I don't have the time to do the AOL, or MSN thing that has been started, but I would love one here, and hope that the ladies who started it, will contribute here as well!

I also loved the idea of age folder, infant, toddler, pre-teens. That would be wonderful to see. I agree with the thought that the playgroups can be "cliquey" you never know if you will be responded to. I had questions in my dd's early days there about pumping and becoming a sahm, I was told to look elsewhere basically!

Anyways, sorry so long, but my 2 cents!

I just had to share this with you all since we have discussed how clicky the playgroups are....I was looking in the playgroup that I sometimes post in and there was a post in the main section from a mom who just came back to the playgroup. Well, she listed 5 people the post was to! Shouldn't she have put that under member to member? I just thought it was a little rude because more than those 5 people are in that playgroup. If no one else in the playgroup matters to her, don't advertise it in the main section!!!!!! I love this board so much better because people actually respond to your questions here!

Yes, I think a makeover is needed.

I'd say the only ones that I don't look at is the fun & games, debates or Explore iVillage folders.
