Guest guest Posted October 14, 2000 Report Share Posted October 14, 2000 Hi everyone, there has been lots of requests and lots of discussion about the younger kids with CF needing support and having troubles with being compliant, etc.... Anyway, we have all been kicking this idea around for awhile, but finally, we created a new email support group for the younger kids with CF or for their siblings. It is a restricted list (meaning they will have to identify themselves in advance to be able to join, the intent her is to keep out perverts, lol) and also, to play it extra safe, the posting feature is set to Moderated, so that all posts must be approved first by the list moderators (to prevent someone saying something too inappropriate for young ears to hear) I have no idea how well t his will work, or how much work will be involved....and I do realize that protecting the kids won't be an easy task in the world we currently live in.... but still, there are so many kids out there wanting email support, and cystic-l really isn't an appropriate forum for most kids under age 13 especial ly. Anyway, here is the website if you want to check it out..... /group/KidsTouchedByCF Anyone who requests to join will be sent an email from the list moderator (s) asking for more information from them, and also asking for an email from their parents where possible giving their ok for their child to join. Also, anyone with questions can email me personally..... Take care, everyone Jen Mommy of 7, including ph 16 months with CF, Mallory 3 with CF, RAD, GERD, OSA, new port-a-cath; 4 with CF; 6, Miranda 8, Brittany 7 yo foster daughter soon to be adopted by us; ERica 4 yo foster daughter, soon to be adopted by us also ; also aunt to 3 yo with CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 Jen, I think this is a wonderful idea and I hope you get a good response. I guess the idea may take a while to grow. I think Mycah (and ) are still a little young, but I'll check back!
