<p>^I know. They’re all so nice and chummy to each other. “With the utmost respect sir, I must disagree with your intelligent post…etc”. I wish we had what they had. haha</p>

<p>The parent forum is a lot more bitter than HSL. The difference is that there are more posters that have been around for many years, and often they have built friendships.</p>
<p>^They really are quite bitter, but they’re overall a tight group since they’ve put multiple kids through college together. There’s even a thread for parents to post if they’re particularly close to a school so if someone’s darling daughters or sons need help, they know who to contact.</p>
<p>Heavn’s right. I like to go on the parent forum a lot (they don’t like me on there though most times…). They have like clans that go after one another when you attack one of them. They have really, really good advice though when you need it. But when politics gets involved, watch out! Someone could lose an eye.</p>
<p>This isn’t the only website I’ve seen where a political forum (or frequent political debate) has bred factions. And those factions often influence discussions on other completely unrelated topics. It’s amazing the way political allegiance can sway their opinion on a football coach or a pitcher.</p>
