Hi, am Beverly (not my real name but I was not sure if I should use my own).

1. How old are your children, and name one thing they’ve done recently that made you laugh? My boy is 7. He makes me laugh every single day but last night he told me it was time for bed, I said, I will be there soon, one hour later I was still up (as an adult I would be), back he came and more or less gave me a telling off for staying up late – it was 9pm!

2. What led you to join the OPFS forum? To chat with folk like me, who “get it” and maybe make new friends.

3. It can be difficult juggling everything as a single parent, mention one thing you find difficult about being a single parent?
It’s difficult for me is when “dad” decides to visit and acts like dad of the year, every other month. Not having enough money to do stuff with my boy ie. holidays, we have never been on one together.

4. Mention one thing that you like about being a single parent? My boy is all mine 🙂

5. Tell us about a hobby or something you like to do for fun or relax? It could just be something small that you are able to fit in after your children are in bed. I like watching box sets or films. Or am always decluttering somewhere in the house. If I have free time during the day, I love going for long walks, totally clears the cobwebs away.

Covering your tracks

You may not want other people to know that you’ve been searching for information or help from OPFS.

When browsing the internet whether on a mobile phone, tablet or computer, you leave a ‘history’ trail of pages and sites you’ve visited.

It’s impossible to completely avoid being tracked online but if you’re worried about someone knowing which sites you’ve been looking at, there are some things you can do to help cover your tracks.

If you’re using a laptop or desktop computer, try keeping another document or website open in a new tab or window while browsing. If someone comes in the room and you don’t want them to see what you’re looking at, you can quickly switch to another window or tab.

Deleting browsing history

You can delete the history of websites you’ve visited, but it’s important to know that if you delete your browsing history, someone else using the same device may notice.

If you share a tablet, mobile phone, laptop or computer with someone, they might notice that passwords or website addresses have disappeared from their history.
