Fair enough, but it was your choice to inform us of the fact that you're his mother. It's not a mandatoy rule. As stated in another thread there are lots of members of this forum in some way related to each other. We are neither interested, nor care very much, because their posts are as valid as everyone else's.
We are generally a trusting bunch on here, and if someone agrees, or disagrees with someone else, we usually accept that they are posting what they actually believe in, and not supporting someone because of any ties, be those ties of fiendship or kinship. The same applies to you.
In the past, on some heated debates, we've occasionally had some youngsters join up, vehemently supporting one particular side of an argument, who then all but disappear from the forum, never to be seen again, usually at the end of a term.
If they joined, having no particular links to the area, and had any sort of relationship/connection to any other member, they certainly didn't see a need to inform us of their bias.
It's happened quite a few times, perhaps your ever so transparent son might fill you in on the details of such threads.
