Off topic. What does that mean? Well, I consider anything D or parenting on-topic for the main forum.

It's funny you asked because everyone once in a while I see some really good on-topic posts here!

I consider the OT forum to be the less formal section. so even if it's slightly D related it's usually more of a casual post, like a vent or a rant. And in the main forum I see more of the specific "help me figure this out" type posts.

That's what I always think of too because of my son's OT. Funny that you think that too!
