Looking For A Pen Pal For Daughter

So my son, thanks to this forum, now has a pen pal his own age in Sweden to trade emails and letters with - which is great!

But my 9 year old daughter is sad now that she doesn't have one (any of you with 2 or more children know exactly what I mean ;) )

I looked on line, but I couldn't find anything that I felt "safe" signing up for. I don't suppose anyone has a suggestion on how I can get her a pen pal, or better yet, has a 9(ish) year old girl that would also like a pen pal?

Thanks for any ideas on this.

Hey I'm sorry you haven't been able to find a penpal yet. I know there are some kids younger than me (I'm 16) on but it may take them a while to see this post. I think your best bet is to try to get in contact with some of the moms around here. I hope this somewhat helps! Just keep on looking! I'll try to look around and help find a penpal for your daughter.

Thanks for your help! I really appreciate it. Another Mom (who has only a son) said she was going to check at her son's school. My kid's are homeschooled, so I'm at a loss there.

Check the 'Parents of' section of the forum, there's probably someone in there!

Hey Gina,

See the little girl in my siggy? That's my daughter and she's 9 1/2 years old. I bet she would love to be a penpal for your daughter. I'll ask her when she gets home. :) Were you looking for letters or email?

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      Thank you so much for your help, @trents and @Staticgypsy! I so appreciate your thoughts. My diet is high in foods with oxalates and I don’t notice any issues there. If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was man...

      Sorry, @JudyLou, as reread your post, I see that you have had gene testing done already.

I am and wish I wasn't. If there was a detector of gluten in the air it would make a world of difference.

If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was many years into gluten-free eating (and was much more careful at that point), I’m just baffled. Many, many thanks to you both.
