Russ, Bob, and others,

Several of you have expressed an interest in a parents/caregivers-only forum. I had intended the original forum (www.voy.com/204228/) to be that kind of forum. I established this forum with tighter controls to create a safe environment where both kids AND parents/caregivers could post. For items that were more sensitive or more germane to parents only - the original forum exists. I understand that some parents are also uncomfortable sorting through content on that original site that they find objectionable.

If there is sufficient interest, I suppose I could start a site similar to this one but intended for parents/caregivers only. As with this site, it would be an open forum that anyone could read and we will not have the features of some forums that require membership and an email address but allow for private messages, real-time chat, file sharing, etc.

To other parents: Would this kind of site be of interest to you? Do you think a site other than the two that currently exist would be beneficial? What rules or parameters should be established for the moderation of that site?

I'd welcome your feedback either as a public post or you may mark it "Don't post" if you would like to comment privately. You may also correspond with me via email using the link at the top of the forum.

Kids: Please let your parents know of this post in case they have any interest or input.

Might this post also be listed as a separate listing unto itself for greater visibility to parents?
