📋 Community guidelines
1. Be local — Greater Boston only.
2. Be kind — disagreement OK, snark not.
3. Be specific — "ages, neighborhood, budget" beats "anyone done X?".
4. Educators introduce themselves in the Educators tab, not by replying to parent threads with promos.
5. No medical advice. Phones & doctors for that.
