Your Protection Is VERY Important To Us!
IF you are accepted as a member of this community you are agreeing to the RULES of this community. We reserve the right to decline any application, any purchased membership or reject any member at ANY time during their time here in this community.
We are raising the bar for expectations when it comes to a Birth Mother Support community. We are different for many reasons and that is because we feel so passionately about the rules that have been created here, and our admins are determined to make sure that we each abide by them. If you are not happy with the rules you are welcome to message us or you are welcome to leave. We have had women come and go.
We understand that we are NOT for everyone. WE understand that every birth mom needs a different kind of support, sometimes you will not find what you are looking for here. You are welcome to leave and always welcomed back (as long as you are not banned from group).
But one thing is for sure- if you are here we WANT YOU HERE body, mind and soul. This is NOT a place for a handout although you receive hundreds of dollars worth of material for only $5.00 a month. You have to work for what you want here...
Please help us keep this space one of the top rated birth mom support communities in the country. Thank you and we love you!
1. RESPECT YOURSELF. We will not tolerate you being down on yourself. We love you and you matter. We all have shitty days and we want you to share but there is a difference between a hard season and just verbally beating the crap out of yourself. YOU ARE WORTH MORE!
2. RESPECT EACH OTHER. The admins of this group have 100% control of who is in this group and what is said back and forth. You will be deleted and not invited back if you can't be nice to each other. PS we absolutely encourage a difference of opinion. That is how we learn and educate ourselves and stay open to other possibilities. There is a difference between sharing a different opinion and attacking someone for not believing the same as you.
3. KEEP IT PRIVATE. This is a private membership group and anything and everything that goes on in this group is protected. If you can NOT respect the privacy of this group you will be deleted and not invited back. Our lawyers will be contacting you if you do not abide with the confidentiality of this group. PERIOD.
