An area for young people and a phobia section

Postby Ana B » Wed Sep 18, 2013 10:24 pm

Where we could talk about things that only concern young people without fearing some people that might be interested in our info. Maybe ask for an age when you register, and only allow <21 people inside, maybe do something similar to adults.

I'm paranoid, so it may only be inside my head, but, I don't know, I wish there was a free zone :)

Oh, and when you go to Anxiety, couldn't you create an area for phobias? I didn't see any there :/

Hi Ana. I think a Young People's area would be difficult to support here. Partly because we want to be as open and inclusive as possible. And partly because we have no way to verify people's age. Especially for young people who may not have ID yet. Not to mention that it would then raise huge confidentiality and privacy issues. :| We do have focus-support/ areas. Which include areas for young men and women. But they're not private and almost only ever used by Spammers. :(

For phobia discussions, we have specific-phobias/ which is a subforum of agoraphobia/. [Again it isn't used very much.] And separately, social-phobia/. Is that the sort of thing you wanted?
We think too much and feel too little.
 More than machinery, we need humanity.
 More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.
