My mom recently joined a homeschool forum and has been asking me for help. I've made her an avatar and offered a few pointers, but she still seems really frustrated that she's not making friends right away and doesn't know what to say. She's being a little grumpy right now...and the frustration is rubbing off on me. Anyone have some advice?

Explain the concept of bieng a n00b to her 
Anyways, tel her just to keep posting and through this, gain the respect of the forum members. After a hundred or so posts, you'll gain some friends and recognition.

it took me bout 200 to feel that I belong here. Took me a while to make friends that I talk to on a regular basis (well...im a anti-social person as it is).
And some forums are different. Like they're lynch and tar and feather you if you're a N00b while others welcome you with delight.

Thanks for the advice, I'll tell her asap.Hey, Madeline. Where is this home school mom forum? I'd love to join and I'll talk to her. We can be noobs together. I've actually been wanting to find a forum for home school moms. Neat. ^_^
[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE
You see into the deepest part of me ---
beyond the fog I hide behind.
You cast your light upon the shadows
that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.
You ease the pain when I am hurting,
and morbid visions from my past
pierce into the realm of Reason
as though I danced on blades of glass.
You grant me strength when I have fallen
and, once again, I've lost my way.
You take my hand in Yours and lead me
into the promise of a brand new day.
You bring order to all my chaos,
yet set my well-laid plans awry.
You place me on a firm foundation ---
then give me wings so I can fly.
You sand away my roughened edges
and polish all the dullest parts
until I stand before Your presence...
a newly-sculpted work of art.
You see into the heart within me,
right through my motives and selfish will.
And yet, in spite of all You see
You say You love me even still.

You can go to a site called http://www.donnayoung.org and click on a link on the right side of the page that says "homeschool forums" or something like that. My mom's username is school2.
Not very creative. Hooray! Now I can complain all I want about her lame username...she's at a brunch right now. I'm really mean...
The people are nice there, I think the problem is that she's never used a forum before. I made her an avatar, but it's really lame because it took five minutes to make. The whole time she was telling me to hurry up...
I tried to play around with it a little bit, but she didn't like it when I tweaked the colors and put some scanner lines and brushes on it...meep. I need to stop complaining.
