Childline friend

[Alex0Shaw]

Ok so long story, i responded to a post on Childline awhile back last year, i like to use that site to be helpful, and well that sites for anyone in the UK for children and teens, but it has confidently and rules, you're not allowed to share any personal information this is like social media, or any sort. so that's the story behind it.

but for my story there's this girl i met on here, that i guess we kinda had a connection, and i wanted to be friends with her but i couldn't since yeah the rules of the site, so i got angry and put a thread in "your site your say" but they didn't help so, i kinda just left the site for awhile, and i got sad about it that i could be friends with this person.. but i came back to the site after awhile since i wanted to help people with their problems i love to help out many ways as i can.. and i put a thread in introductions area since i never put anything in there so i did, and this girl i knew from awhile back posted in there saying if i remember her and she remembered me which i'm glad about.. now i'm trying to get her to this site but i know it won't work its just not possible, i mean see how things go, but yeah i can't get over this, but just see what happens.. if anyone wants to say anything or give advice that's okay but i just wanted to make this post so if the girl from childline does come she will she its this person, i know it's.. sad but i'm not sure, i'm never really sure

Wait man, why won't it work to get her to here?

You're not allowed to share any other sites, like the name.. so yeah it's whatever though :P

Well getting together on here would give you both the opportunity to really communicate and get to know each other much better. I would push hard for her to join VT so you can really talk to each other.

“Btw sometimes I go on other *teen forums (hint hint) that also helps teens. Except there’s no strict rules on confidentiality or giving other sights names”

Idk how this sight is moderated but

I didn't know Childline had a website, huh.

I'd be careful around the rules because you don't wanna get banned for breaking them and therefore end up never talking again because of it. Imply like hell if needed since clearly you guys really wanna talk more.

Ask her if she has been on other sites, perhaps VT?

Yeah i mean you just a lot of warnings and they just don't allow the post be uploaded since they have to check the posts first, it's kinda stupid but i get it so people don't bully etc.. but yeah i'll try to. try and tell her it's a teen forum etc. just can't give the name of the site.

I don't think she does.. but i could try to ask. but she won't tell me what sites though but i'll figure it out thanks everyone for the help.

Hi BatmanAlex,

We're contacting you about your message board thread called 'BatmanAlex's Introduction.' We have needed to remove some comments you made as they break our house rules, and we wanted to contact you to explain why.

The Childline message boards are a place for young people to reach out for support, and to receive support from others. All members of the community should feel able to get involved in a thread, and threads which look like they are just between 2 people can leave others feeling left-out. Trying to make friends through the boards or trying to arrange to meet up could put people at risk - this could be meeting up in real life, or on another site. The reason why we don't allow people to discuss particular websites/apps is because we aren't able to check each site/app, and when someone suggests another person uses a particular site it could allow people to meet up outside the Childline community. The reason we have these house rules in place is to keep everyone safe.

Comments which encourage other users to break the house rules also isn't allowed. We want you to feel able to keep using the boards if you find them helpful - the Childline community are a really supportive group of people.

The Childline counsellors are always there if you need any extra support, and sometimes there are things which are best spoken about to a counsellor rather than on the boards.

Take care,
Childline Website Supervisor

Now that happened lols yeah this is why i don't like childline as much i only like it to help out people with there problems, i only ever use the boards and that's basically it, they just so tight with the confidentiality rules, but anyways i told her to find the teen forums and i did say to post introductions but she didn't reply to that so just have to see what happens tbh, I get pissed easily at things if it's stupid things like this, just thought to say something about this.

... now i'm trying to get her to this site but ...



Don't even try it. Just mention the site, give her some infos about it. And that's it. The decision is hers.
