- About
- This community is for people who are estranged from their family (whether by choice or not) to find support and strength.
The rules are simple: be respectful to each other at all times.
Disagreement is fine and will happen. We're all adults, behave as such. Being an asshole is unneccessary and a mod will not hesitate to step in.
Don't take posts from the community outside of the community (snark-fodder will result in immediate banning).
Please place triggering posts behind a cut with a warning. If you don't know how to make a cut, you can learn here.
Questions? Contact the moderators via email (we_got_caught@livejournal.com or karnythia@livejournal.com) or PM.
Since posting to the community can be a little difficult, maybe an intro post will help you to open up.
