I am not a teen mom, but I have read many of the "sticky" threads,
so I hope it's ok if I join for a while.

Hi there!

I'm Hilary, a 21year old college student and mama to a beautiful and enchanting toddler (who now wears big boy underpants to daycare everyday! I'm so happy to be done washing diapers and pull-ups.)

You are more than welcome to join for however long you want to be here. Glad to see you're reading the stickies - like I&A'smama pointed out the KA/older mama guidelines are particularly important ones. Thanks for posting the link to that article - I haven't read it and I'm excited to now. (And yeah, ramonegirl totally rocks.)

See you around the boards!

Thank-you very much. I appreciate being directed to the KA/Older Mamas Guidelines.

I guess I would be a (much) Older Mom (lol!) :)

I have a 10 year old daughter.

Hi, I found this place

Would this thread be a good place to ask questions which do not fit into any of the other currently active threads?

For example, I was wondering:

What is the general consensus about reactivating old threads? I have been reading through a lot of fascinating topics which are from 1, 2, and even 3 years ago. I have really wanted to respond to some of them, but because they are so old, I didn't know how appropriate it would be to post in them.

So, what do you think about activating old threads?

Thanks.

I think it's fine. There's a lot that we can still learn from reactivating some of those discussions. I would suggest mentioning that they are old threads when you post on them, though, in case somebody doesn't notice.
