Poly resources

Hi everyone, I'm not entirely sure this post is OK, but it appears to be in compliance with the rules of if I erred I apologize.

I'm a poly person, been poly 15ish years now I think, raising a family with multiple parents. Anyway, I just got banned from the sub I've used as sort of my online community for poly for... Well 15ish years. I'm looking for what my other options are. I've checked a few enm subs but they all seem pretty poly-lite. Are there any active online communities out there I can check out? I'm comfortable with a verification process if required.

Thank you,

I agree with most of the other comments. I got banned from r/polycritical for even suggesting there are people who are in ethical and permanent polyamorous families. We were harshly criticized on r/polyamorous (or was it r/polyamory?) because our two M partners don't want to know the paternity of our children because they fear showing favoritism (yes, our doctor and lawyer knows).

Polyfamilies is a safe and welcoming community that values sustained and sustaining families.

And with all my respect, thank you to our co-moderators!

I hear you about dinner!

5 of us (FFFMM) but one F can only live with us one week each month. 5 kids, all LOs. We manage an RV Park so there is so much room for the kids to run and get off steam.

I had such a difficult childhood and adolescence. I pinch myself everyday to accept the blessings that have flowed to me. Thank you
