This is obviously ning policy, not ours and I guess it comes from concerns about unsupervised internet use. I suggest the best way forward is for you as parent to open a second account called 'James for Nyassa Hinde' You will probably need a separate email address for this, though several people seem to have accidentally created two ning accounts so it can't be too difficult! That way we will know you are happy for you child to participate and you can keep hatever level of surveilance you want (I'm sure others in the network would notice untoward discussion on the group but the account holder's in-tray is only visible to the account holder) Hope this works for you. I thnk the idea of a kids group is great. Caroline
Hi James - Just wondering about setting up this Amida Kids group etc. Are you planning on adding Hugo and Nyassa's profiles sometime soon.? I've asked Hala and Luca about what they'd like to say. I'm just feeling a bit nervous to be the first ones to go for it! Shall we all do it together?!
Namo Amida Bu,
Hussam
Hi James - Just wanted to say "Hello" to you and that yes you do have a wonderful person as a wife!

Welcome. Thank you for joining. I hope you make some good friends here. If there is anything I can explain or help with, let me know. It has been a great treat for us all having Helen with us at The Buddhist House this week. Warm wishes - Dharmavidya
