Are you guys interested in a private Facebook group?

I started this Facebook group a while back and never finished it. I really grabbed it just to claim the name.

I wondered if you guys wanted a place to talk that was private. If you don’t, that’s OK. And if you do, I will need help moderating the group and need to establish rules.

So let me know if this might be something you’d want. Or not

  1. I’m a yes too. I find it unbelievably comforting to talk to people who have been where I have been. And I like Stacy’s suggestion of the scroll past guideline.

  2. I admire your boldness, the fact that you are emotionally naked. But I’m not there, and the only facebook-ing I do is in private groups. So, I’m a yes. One helpful rules of engagement one of my groups just initiated is a scroll past guideline. If you disagree, just keep scrolling, it’s not a place to fight, it’s a place of support.

    1. I like that rule. And I suspect there are a number of people who don’t want to comment in public for any number of reasons including family members who might object. Thank you for the feedback.
