Apologies if this one's come up before. Generally, second only to their Caterfield (still mostly in kit form, a year after delivery), TVR (as noted elsewhere, a reverse kit) or their Saxo (+ 200Kgs of ICE) folk are most fond of their children. PHers have been known to express affection for their partners too, admittedly, typically less frequently than for their MX5s. smile

May I suggest their is room for a Family Life forum in the P&P? (I know, my nick gives away the self-interest here) For the discussion of child-rearing/family life issues; NOT relationships - we don't to mix solving toddler's reluctance in the brussel spouts dept with solving the other half's reluctance in the OXO tower dept. The posts crop up frequently anyway (I've just been reading one) and this would keep them tucked away with those who are happy to submit their P&J's to Britax and puke.

I'm fond of my partner and child, but I'm not sure PH is the best place to discuss them and don't think a family life section would sustain itself very well.

I'm prepared to stand corrected though, if there is enough demand for one either now or in the future then we can look into creating it.

I think the lack of replies to this post (perhaps partly because, re-reading it, the beginning is unintentionally trolllish paperbag) proves you correct smile

I'm not sure we need a family forum, but I'd certainly love to move all those 'relationship' threads into their own forum. The Lounge seems to have become a magnet for people who are either intent on whining about the break-up of a relationship or boasting about an improbably remarkable one-night-stand, and I'm interested in neither. tongue out
