I do feel guilty, if it it turns out they are unable to post until forum administrators receive written parental consent, allowing their child to participate on Accy Web.
I do not feel guilty about revealing their age if it helps prevent the continuing sniping aimed at them.
I hope they do carry on posting.
Enthusiasm isn't a crime, even if others might not share it.

There you go, an explanation of the posts, a young person interested in what is happening in the local area, what shops have closed, when and where...seems to me a future Retlaw who in another 50 years or so will be able to fill Accrington Library with first hand information of what happened in Accrington in 2011...not so mundane now..eh?
