PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING ON HOT TOPICS

HOT TOPICS IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER BOARD ON BABYZONE

Due date clubs are a great place to meet women who are pregnant and due in the same month, TTC boards are available for people who might be pregnant, or are trying to get pregnant. If you want advice on your pregnancy symptoms, or want to talk about being pregnant, those are the appropriate places to do so.
 
This is a board for debating topics that may produce passionate responses.
As such, be prepared to have your points dissected, challenged, and possibly even debunked as incorrect by a more credible source. Everything is fair game;  politics, religion, sex, violent crimes from the news, morality and personal choices just to name a few. In order to allow heated debates while still maintaining mutual respect, we have all agreed to a few 'rules' of posting here.
 
*Don't drag a disagreement (or any part thereof) from other boards to debate on hot topics behind the person's back, nor take the debate off of this board to another.
 
*Avoid personal attacks such as name-calling, slurs of any kind, or threatening.
 
*Don't post topics that aren't open for debate, you are likely to be disappointed with the result.
 
*If you would like to share something that may not be too hot, make note of it in your post title.
 
*Site your sources of information as often as possible. Don't plagerize news articles, websites, etc. Include a link to your source whenever possible.
 
*If you wish to share something that is not hot at all, also make note of it in the title. This is known as 'Fluff'
 
*Keep fluff threads to a minimum, we don't want to overcrowd the board with topics that aren't debateable else we lose the point of this board
 
* Don't post any personal identifying information, including your e-mail address, full name, exact location, etc. This is a public board, anyone can view this information and do as they please with it. Also, use caution when posting personal images such as ultrasounds or family photos.
 
*Don't post ads or other forms of spam.
