As Families.com is growing, we thought it would be fun for families to be able to find, network with and make friends with other families in their area. These families could talk about local issues, local events, local support groups, local politics and other issues specific to that location. These families could share reviews of restaurants, doctors, schools, politicians, parks and other businesses. We thought it would be nice to know which businesses and services other families liked and disliked. These families could provide reviews of local entertainment, culture and other attractions for other families who might take a vacation to that area. The families could have online garage sales or give away hand-me-down items to other families in the area who might be able to use them. These families could form local support groups, get together and go out to lunch (keeping safety issues in mind), or come together to support a local good cause.

This is our vision for the Families.com Local area. We encourage everyone to start off by introducing themselves on their local forum. Share whatever you feel comfortable and appropriate. What do you like to do for fun? Tell us about your family. Why do you come to Families.com? What kind of friends would you like to meet? What are your favorite things about the area where you live? What are your least favorite? Where is your absolute favorite place to eat? Help us start this local support and networking forum in your area.

Hello from Gainesville, GA! Since I'm the first to reply I'm not sure exactly what to write about. As a SAHM to a sweet 2 year old, I enjoy talking to other parents about their families. I look forward to meeting other members from GA.

Hey ya'll!!!! I'm originally from St. George, Ga and now live in Woodbine, Ga where I'm a police officer. I've lived in Georgia all my life and would never live anywhere else. We are close to Jacksonville, Florida only about 35 miles north of there on I-95.
