I was told these are a thing. I have an ancient FB account and the last thing I posted was a wedding pic shortly after I got my proofs back- so over 6 years ago.

Anyway, I just moved and there is no LIF equivalent so I begrudgingly requested to join the local moms group. They denied me twice.

I don’t have pics of my DD posted nor do I mention where I live (I never have). I think you can see where I went to college and my profile and cover photo or whatever it’s called.

I mean I don’t even want to make friends, I just want to find a handyman.




Most of the FB Mom groups want your location in your profile to make sure they allowing in people from the community.

Be forewarned though, FB Mom groups are not for the faint of heart. They are ruthless!



They are!! And that's why I don't understand why this forum has died out and those thrive. I like the relative anonymity here. There is NO WAY I would say some of the things people say on those groups under my own name. I mean, I may not say it period but on here I'm a lot more free with posting my opinion and giving advice. I'm afraid a client or a business associate may not like what I share and it become a problem because I have no idea they are part of the "Mom" group I'm in. LI Moms has over 20K members so there is bound to be someone I know through work on there. Those women say the craziest stuff!!!



Interesting. My local mom group has 10k+ members and at times can get pretty ruthless but NOTHING compared to LIF! Chat Icon

Exactly - I love that forums like this are anonymous, and I hate that most of them went to FB. And some FB groups aren't private so friends and family can sometimes see posts or things I like. I have to be really careful about what I say.
