I know that some of you think I'm totally judgmental. But honestly, I don't care that much about the choices that other parents make. I know that no choice is made in a vacuum and each family makes trade-offs based on what works best for them. Cloth versus disposable? Boob versus bottle? To snip or not to snip (although I do have a hard time not judging people who cut their kids for cosmetic reasons). Preschool at two or four? How long your keep your kid in diapers?
I'm far from perfect. And I don't like admitting I'm wrong--just as Father in Chief. The stuff I write here is the real me. The stuff I write elsewhere is in the spirit of entertainment and debate. And at times I have triggered some really interesting and thought-provoking comments, which makes it all worth while. That doesn't mean what I write elsewhere isn't me or my thoughts. Really, they are all my thoughts and my opinions--just amplified to the extreme. Don't take it personally, okay? It's in the spirit of fun...and it pays some bills.
Dang, the comments on the Oh Baby thread aren't showing up... I wanted to see what was said!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you write and the subjects you cover resonate with me. I'm glad you've found a paying outlet for your talent, even if it's not the total break from parenting that you need.
I know, I know... Typepad totally puked out and everything crashed yesterday for anyone using Typepad. Hopefully they'll restore all the links soon so that we can relive the good times again and again ;-)
