Does your mother know you're here?

Yes.
@Cruiser knows I am here.
Hi,mom! XD

Nope my mom don’t know I’m here but since I am in my forties I think I am old enough to make my own decisions on that one.

Nope. I’m pretty sure my mum doesn’t know how to use the internet.

No, my Mom is dead. That’s right! DEAD! Thanks for reminding me!~

@filmfann sorry,,, you’ve made me feel really small now : (

Nope. And she never will!

No

Ooh, I’m sending this to Katawagrey….

@noelleptc You should have her join flutter and be apart of the group with us

What my mum doesn’t know about me would fill NYC’s, London’s, Chicago’s and Mumbai’s phone directories combined. My being here’s the least of those things!

I still can’t get my mother to pronounce “internet” correctly—you think I’m going to trouble her with Fluther?

She owns an iPad, but I don’t think she uses it for more than music and e-mail.

No. My mom is not technologically inclined, so if I explained what it was, I’m not sure she would understand

nope and she shouldn’t need to bother.

My mom thinks I am overseas on a USO tour with @lucillelucillelucille….don’t you dare tell her otherwise. ;)

@Cruiser We won’t if but it may take some bribing to keep some of us quite now that we know

MY mother, at 96 + doesn’t know where she is, sadly.

My husband had to open his big mouth (if you’re reading this honey, I love you) and mention our usernames and this site several times during his radio show, so it is very possible. One of the main reasons why I hide my answers on my profile now.

We are all worried about the mothers what about the fathers?

My Mom doesn’t know much about anything at the present time unfortunately.

I’m surprised my mom isn’t here herself.

Nope, she’s probably never heard of it and wouldn’t know how to use it anyway.

@creative1 – Ummm…mine was never there for me, beat my mom in front of me, threatened to kill her all the time, denied my existance to the US Marines, so he never paid child support and is so f*cking crazy they have to induce him into a coma at the VA just to get him under control enough to throw in lockdown. This is a man who put his head through doors, not into, not just part of his head, all the way to his shoulders. I suggest you start your own thread :P

P.S. Abortion on the table, then balls on the table too! My dad aborted me, so someone should chop off his f*cking balls!

mom?
that is something you would ask.

I’m pretty sure my mom doesn’t know I’m Fluthering right now but if she did, she would be content that I contribute something worthwhile in the majority of my answers and comments here.

My whole family is here.

@reba lolz…. don’t worry. I think I’m much too young to be your mother : D

My mother doesn’t do the internet at all. It would take hours to explain the concept of Fluther to her.

@spykenij sorry to hit a very bad nerve with you

My mum doesn’t know a lot of things about me and I’m 21. You’d be surprised D:

Nope. My mother is dead.

@mazzkat : I’ll bet she knows more than you think she does, but not nearly as much as she thinks she knows… ;-)

@JilltheTooth I know things she doesn’t know that I know she knows ;D

No, of course not.

My Mother is 85. She has recently developed a liking for Chick-lit. I daren’t introduce her to Fluther… She simply knows too much.

my mum has no idea what fluther is, much less if I’m on it or not

Nah, my mom wouldn’t understand the appeal. She can hardly navigate Facebook.

My mum doesn’t know how to use a mobile phone, let alone a computer ;)

Nope

No, but since I’m visiting at my parents’ house right now, she would know if she turned around from her sewing.

I highly doubt it. Last time I saw her I was 15 or so. I have no idea what she’s doing now, or where she is. She ain’t on here though lol.

No, but it’s not because I’m hiding it, lol. She doesn’t know what goes on in the computer.

My mom has no familiarity with the Internet and no inclination to use a computer. I’m 56 and she’s 75. I doubt my presence here would be a cause of concern for her.

No. This is a place for me to express ideas and feelings and emotions that I would not necessarily want to be known to people that actually know me. The anonymous aspect to Fluther is very cathartic sometimes.

The recipes she knows all about, because I try them out on her first. She would probably think it odd that I would want to share my knowledge online. It’s kind of akin to airing your dirty laundry.

I showed her the site once and what I do on it (that was once, way back when I joined at 17). That was the extent of it. My parents never cared much about what I did online as long as I did my homework and wasn’t trying to meet strangers I met online…

no my mum has never heard of fluther and never will
:) its some where i can ask questions that im embarresed to ask her :)

She knows I frequent a website called Fluther, but I don’t think I’d invite her. What if I needed to vent about her or talk about other things that she doesn’t need to know?

@spykenij Jeez lady, she only made an observation; lighten up!

Not sure she even knows what this site is or if it even exists. About the only site we share is the local professional baseball team which we are both fans of (I introduced them to her) and maybe the local newspaper site.

No, I doubt she’d care.

@WillWorkForChocolate – I know what she meant and that’s what happens when people have traumatic experiences in their lives. It’s called “gender identity disorder,” hate for my dad, one of several cases of PTSD he caused me to have and Hypervigilance I have because of him. Just struck a nerve, so I was bein honest. Really, we can write whatever we want on here within reason and that’s what I did.

P.S. Not a “lady.” I just don’t identify myself that way. You can call me Sir.

—@spykenij I don’t care if you think you can “write whatever you want”; there was still no reason to go off on her like that. And I don’t call anyone “Sir” unless they earn it.

I’ve read all the posts above by @WillWorkForChocolate (I do love that name) and @spykenij (which, only for the sound of it reminds me of Spikenard, the plant) and really cannot see how you guys got so heated. It’s a shame that a pretty humorous thread has got so serious – but @spykenij‘s comments were valid, if not pleasant. Perhaps the issues mentioned would be better expressed under another question, but hey guys, lighten up eh?

My 85 year old Mother would have some wisdom about this sort of situation, but as mentioned above, I just daren’t…

I would not call this comment pleasant: “Ummm…mine was never there for me, beat my mom in front of me, threatened to kill her all the time, denied my existance to the US Marines, so he never paid child support and is so f*cking crazy they have to induce him into a coma at the VA just to get him under control enough to throw in lockdown. This is a man who put his head through doors, not into, not just part of his head, all the way to his shoulders. I suggest you start your own thread :P P.S. Abortion on the table, then balls on the table too! My dad aborted me, so someone should chop off his f*cking balls!”

@spykenij completely went off on @creative1 for no good reason. There was absolutely no need for that comment at all, and that is why I was telling @spykenij to lay off. The thread was great without having to see that.

I wasn’t disagreeing.

Okay… all I saw was you saying that @spykenij‘s comments were “valid, if not pleasant”, and I don’t consider that to be pleasant at all. It was like @spykenij was yelling at @creative1 for daring to mention the word “father”. It was crass and completely uncalled for.

Don’t say “daddy” in this thread! Your head will be ripped off!

oh no…

I think there is a misunderstanding @WillWorkForChocolate, I did say not pleasant; ‘valid, if not pleasant. I’m sorry if I have mispunctuated, or missed emphasis in some way, but I did not mean ‘valid, but pleasant’! I was not disagreeing with you! Don’t have a go at the Aunty, I was just trying to pour oil on fluther-splashed troubled waters, ok??? S’pose I should have said ‘although not pleasant’. Where’s Jeruba?

Ahhh, okay that does clear thing ups a bit. Thanks for the explanation, although I still think her/his/it’s comment, valid or not, didn’t really belong here, especially not in the manner in which it was presented. Sorry for misinterpreting your comment!

My mom doesn’t like me talking to strangers online…
But, I feel that fluther is safe. You guys rock.
Facebook, no way.
