Yeah, hi, pro ana speaker here. Anykid who would feed you the excuse: I learned it over the internet is so obviously slow and knows that whoever they are talking to are also. Kids may be impressionable, I sure as hell know I am but the websites are not the ones who stop kids from eating, or stick our fingers down their throats to purge them of their "sins". We simply allow kids to come together who already have this lifestyle so that they know they are not alone. I have seen numerous websites and television shows and movies and heard plenty of songs about getting high and smoking cigarrettes, I however have touched neither in my entire life, which happens to be sixteen years. If you want someplace to point the blame look in the mirror. Because we aren't the ones who live with the kids who talk to them everyday, who make them feel that they need to be thin. If you don't want your kid to be ana/mia then do something about it, which I wouldn't reccomend because kids who are really ana/mia can find ways around any adult!
Get over it, I know you love your kids but banning websites (and going against the first amendment) is not going to do a damn thing about it.

This topic is in the Health forum and the Ban Pro Ana/ Pro Mia Websites petition forum.

i hAtE U ALl... LeT uS Be!

Ur websites are F***ED up and you should go to jail for all the S*** you've caused!

Yes, that is exactly right, we should go to jail for speaking our minds. How stupid of us, we thought that free speech acually meant just that, free speech. You don't understand us at all, leave us alone, there's nothing you can do about it. We will do whatever we want, because you aren't pro ED doesn't mean that we can't support eachother and infact many of our sites have stopped suicide because people commit suicide when they feel alone, now we support them and there are more of us. Our sites, if you even bothered to check them out before slamming them, are actually alot nicer than many other sites out there. We do not try to convert people to be ana/mia we are just there for them. We don't judge and we certainly don't swear at eachother like you have so kindly demonstrated. Get over it!

Thank you Sarah! Life is hard. People, including family, don't understand us at all. I ALWAYS feel alone in my world, that no one I know understands me. Thank you!

Meggan-
Any time hon, I know how it is to be looked down on. These people don't understand us. Just rememberyou are not alone!

life is hard, but if u try to undesrstand that there r people that r willing to learn about the websites nd illness, u wont feel alone.

I understand that you think life is hard and that you may think people are willing to learn about the websites, but when people lash out, insult, or try to ban them, doesn't make them seem like they are learning, more like the are turning there noses up.
You may be one of the good few who has an open mind, but there are many, MANY others who are not as kind as you.

ur right thanks. iam not those people that disciminate against u know. but there r people that say hurtful things to bring u down or simply because they dont understand it and what u go through. no one should do this, but there is people that r ignorant . just think about the people that support u and help u. dont let the negativeness get through u.

Emma-
