Questions about the Alateen board...


 

Does Alanon have oversight of the Alateen board...?

The board has not had any active members for a while. I see that there is a call for funding from members for $50 or $60...

...all groups should be self supporting, including Alateen.

But with no members, why should any incoming members have to pay arrears?

David I do believe your question should be addressed directly to John.

 I did go to that Board and did not see the  request for  any money never mind 50 or 60 dollars.   The request on this board clearly asks for 5 or 10 dollars from those who can afford it.


As I understand the issue, Alonon WSO was not granted over site on MIP based on a group conscience decision.


Correction


David I did just see the bottom line on the Message Board that you are referring to .  Not sure how long that message has been there so that on ly John can answer your question

Hi David,
First the teens area is not affiliated with Alateen or Al-Anon. It is called Family Teens, not Alateen. This is in line with WSO online policy for young people. The only online alateen group affiliated with alanon is on the alanon site. Our teens area has been inactive for a good while now. In fact, sense it is not being over seen by adults from Al-Anon, and has so little activity I may elect to remove it from the site completely with just a link to the WSO site for teens to be referred to.

To answer your question: No, there is no debt due for the family teens board, it is simply a admin error on the forum admin's part. If you look, all the boards do not reflect any debt, and the teens board is so inactive that there is no activity on it that would justify the debt it reflects. It is simply an error that I have brought to the board admin's attention. thank you.

John
