[QUOTE="runawaybunny, post: 683192, member: 1"] My observations. I registered here as a member after stumbling upon this community while struggling to find a way to help my child in 2006. I drifted away for a while searching for my previous posts to discover a message from the forum owner that this community was being shut down due to hosting costs and a drop off in activity. At that time my posts had all been deleted. The admin policy at that time was to delete everything in the database that had not been judged to be valuable enough to be "archived". Everything else was to be deleted. None of what I had posted here after spending a lot of time and effort were considered valuable enough to be "archived". Had I of known that each of my posts made in earnest were to be judged for their value I would not have ever posted here. Thousands of posts were deleted. That practice stopped when I bought this site to prevent it from being shut down. That was in early 2007. Fast forward to today. Social media is the thing now. If anyone cares about boosting this site's activity then post links from our site on social media somewhere. More importantly please continue to protect your privacy because that is and will be a concern as a parents. Our children's well being are our first priority. This site may or may not be relevant to parents in the future. I know for sure it was a sanity saver for me when I was all alone and I will do what I can to keep this online. [/QUOTE]
