I received yet another email earlier today asking me if I would like to form a partnership with yet another fantastic supporting site that offers support and advice to vulnerable women.
Anything that will help women recovering from or going through difficult times is always of interest to me as I work hard to establish relationships with hundreds of women online who need support and resources that I cannot fill.
I will always refer on women who need professional support to the correct organisations.
My blog offers a safe and confidential place for women to speak out and enable them to share their experiences and fears. Being able to see that others do not judge them and there is always someone out there who can relate too and understand is a huge benefit.
I run a very large Facebook group for mothers, many regard this supportive network as a life line. I do not get paid, I do this because I want to make a difference in this world, no matter how small that maybe.
I may well write my own books in the future, but the FREE support I offer will ALWAYS come first. Thats what’s important.
I become rather disheartened and somewhat angry when companies, bloggers, people, email me asking if they too can help the women on my blog. They can provide content for the blog, help me help more and offer resource tips and great support.
It sounds fantastic, I am only 1 person and always grateful for help but…
When I have looked at the last 3 organisations offering their support, I see that in order to gain this support there is a fee? There is no free support on the site, until you have paid a subscription and booked a course?
You want to charge vulnerable women in exchange for help?
Why would anybody want to make cash out of abused and defenceless women?
While I understand the desire to help, where is your FREE course? OK so if they want one to one dedicated support then charge, but why only offer chargeable services?
We are not freaks? We are not here for you to make cash from and we deserve better than this.
I am one mother, one voice speaking out for hundreds of women when I say “We all need support, to be believed, understood and listened too”.
We did not choose this life we lead, we were dealt it and we live it daily, please don’t use our weakness to make a financial gain from.
*Please note this is not aimed directly at any organisation and while I understand businesses need to make money, they are doing it in the wrong way.
About The Real Supermum
I agree hun, it is annoying and you do it free, off your own back. Much prefer this anyway and the group
x
Very well said xx
totally agree, i think those who are in helping people for free are in it for the right reasons. Yes the companies need to make money, but imo you cant get better than speaking from the heart xx
See I understand they need to make money but go and sell a product not offer support !
yes agreed! after-all companies sell products not advice, right? x
We don’t need these companies ‘help’ thank you, Emma and the admins do a fantastic job!
very well said hun , u do this all out of ur own pocket , we know u don’t get paid 4 any of this, u put prob about 18 hours a day of ur time between the blog, the group n ur family along with everything else u do, u do all this not 4 urself glory or to say ‘hey look at me aren’t i fantastic’ u do this to help other that r in the same boat n cant see a way out of the problems they have , u listen, u care n u r there no matter wat ur going through in ur own personal life ,
this pisses me of when ppl say u get paid n ur out 4 wat u can get as have they met u , prob not, do they really kno u …. answers nope, ………… u worked damn hard 4 all of this of ur own back n paid 4 everything out of ur own pocket .
u hold ur head high hunni, u deserve all the praise n applause for the damn good work u do xx
Well said xx
people who offer to ‘help’ women then charge are not doing it out the goodness of thier hearts – they probably dont even care,
they are in it for the money – making money off vunerable women who sadly need help in many ways
they see it as a money maker!
we do not need any of those companies – emma and all of her admins provide a safe enviroment, a freindly happy surrounding where everyone feels safe
that is all we need xx
Well said Emma we are all with u.
xx
I completely agree with you! And yet again ur doing what u do best being a supermum and sticking up for us all mwah xxx
Well said hunni x x
Get em told emma ! Unfortunately alot see this as a money making scheme and its all about the £ signs. I’m just grateful like many others that there are people like yourself and the rest of the mums on our group that do care and do so out of the kindness of the heart. You cant put a price on that xxx
Completely agree with everything u have said x
You can’t put a price on advice. These companies should be ashamed of themselves x
Totally agree hun, couldnt have put it better myself xx
Well said hun x
disgusting that people try and benefit from this. absolutley shocking. well done emma and all admins that help peopl. my respect goes out to you. x
well said!! there are far to many people in the world that only ever think of ways to make money xx
Well said!! x
