Not about your decision to cut and run from your country and family.
Not about bleating that you feel guilty about isolating in a multi-million pound mansion in LA during Lockdown.
Not about suggesting to frazzled parents that they should celebrate the moment, rolling around the floor in hysterics. confused

But....When you made that call asking for money generated by your wedding to be used for feeding children during the pandemic, are you really sure it was the Archbishop of Canterbury who picked up the phone?? grin

Dysfunctional- evidence of family break ups where the children suffered and have spoken of this. Accounts of suicide attempts Failing to properly develop relationships- parental difficulties.

trisher. The above, you tried wriggling out of it by saying
‘Accounts of suicide attempts’, was not referring to suicide attempts . It was .

No Trish you blamed the families of those suffering with Mental Illness, I imagine that you have qualifications to back your views up?
I also think that whilst we the Tax payers of the U.K. are funding H and M then we are entitled to say exactly what we think about them.
I also think that if you don’t like it, then you should stay off of the threads that are commenting on H and M, and stop bullying others who have their own views.
I wait to be reported

If you can copy and post anything I have said about mental illness which denigrates or blames the person suffering Annie I will willingly withdraw them and make a donation to any mental health charity.

Anniebach Sat 18-Apr-20 10:00:41

You have certainly added to it trisher with your views on
mental illness

Any thread about M&H becomes a hatefest for some posters on GN. I used to wonder about where the tricoteuse would have come from because I believed women were better than that. I no longer wonder, it is obvious.

Dollymcl, you have summed up perfectly this whole thread.

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 22:27:10

Sorry, lead trained

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 22:26:30

The Lab isn’t lesdctrsined and the beagle is too fat,

Great car for an out of work couple

Remember when you were young and thought that you could conquer the world?

They're both in their late thirties. They should have grown up by now.

It looks like they are desperate to be seen.

Who would leave their child with a nanny to go out where they could easily be infected then possibly take the infection back to him?

Visibly clutching hand sanitizer is just posing and why carry the dog. Can't it walk?

Dollymc1 Fri 17-Apr-20 22:12:12

Annie, I'm not just talking about you, my love
It's the whole tone of this thread

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 22:07:37

But it is about me , you accuse me of bullying , not true and I
don’t like it.

Dollymc1 Fri 17-Apr-20 21:53:11

Annie, at 38, I felt young and strong, yes
However, this isn't about me or you, or personal feelings, it's about bullying people.
I just don't like it

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 21:47:14

Certainly not , I assume you did Dollymc

Dollymc1 Fri 17-Apr-20 21:44:00

Did you not Annie?
I stand by my comment that it's nasty and unnecessary

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 21:40:46

When I was 38 I didn’t think I could conquer the world

Dollymc1 Fri 17-Apr-20 21:38:46

The vitriol aimed at Harry and Meghan is astonishing
Remember when you were young and thought that you could conquer the world?
I just wish them a happy life with their little son
Imagine if someone was discussing your own son and daughter like this
It's kind of nasty
Oh and by the way, I'm not a royalist, just don't like to see bullying and that's what is going on here

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 21:25:38

I award me 10+ if I take trisher’s view of dysfunctional

Bridgeit Fri 17-Apr-20 21:19:10

I’m probably off the scale ??

Jomarie Fri 17-Apr-20 21:15:48

Ooh yes - I like the sound of a scale of "dysfunctionality" would it be 1 - 10 ? If so, what is 1 and what is 10 ie loads of awful stuff = 10? and not so awful stuff being 1? Any ideas?

Bridgeit Fri 17-Apr-20 20:55:31

Who decides who has or comes from a dysfunctional family?
I suspect most of us are, at least some of the time.
Perhaps there is a scale of Dysfunctionality.

Anniebach Fri 17-Apr-20 20:07:18

If the royals are a dysfunctional family Harry has jumped from the frying pan into the fire .

trisher Fri 17-Apr-20 19:39:33

And who aren't prepared to acknowledge that contact with one of them might make some people feel better.

trisher Fri 17-Apr-20 19:37:46

If the account details how the family handled it and they did so badly then the family is disfunctional. The prime purpose of the family being to offer support for its members. Really 'I am tired of the eternal nit-picking from people who make unsubstantiated and condemnatory posts about 2 people they know nothing about.

Sparklefizz Fri 17-Apr-20 19:36:32

trisher Not sure what wedding you refer to. If it's Beatrice's, they have postponed it, feeling it's inappropriate at the moment.

I am interested to know how you know what the RF "imagine".

I think, trisher, you have also not understood something vital. It's possible to dislike someone's actions without disliking the person. People don't "hate" Harry or Meghan, as you seem to think ..... at least not on here ..... but they don't like the way they behave. There's a world of difference.
