To all those people who "never look at this blog" and think they are perfect . . .
I used to be a big AOL parenting message board poster. Let me tell you, there are no "better parents" in the world than the moms from the AOL message boards. These women would sit, banging away on their keybords, judging every wrong thing you ever did with your kid. All. Day. Long.
Later, I branched out to the real internet and found that those women existed all over the internet. I found out I was a terrible mama because I got sick of my kids and had to get out of the house and away from them. I was a terrible mama because I had sent my youngest son to daycare. (The horrors!) I was a terrible mama because I forgot to put sunscreen on my kids. (Hey, man, I'm dark skinned. I don't think of it, sometimes, sorry.)
I found out once that the most judgemental woman I have ever met online smoked. in her house. With her kids in it. When I found that out, I had a massive epiphany. It's really easy to fake being a good mom on the internet. I can sit here and tell you all day that my children have never had a bit of candy, that they only eat organic foods hand-picked from a farm in my backyard and you'd never know the difference. I can tell you I have never lost my patience with my kids even once. I've never yelled at them and I certainly have never spanked them.
But since I'm all about the honesty, I'll tell ya. According to internet standards, I'm a crappy mom. And I'm proud of it.

Now dont hold back dear. let it all out.
I am sitting here having a really good laugh.
I hope that Viv appreciates that she has made me laugh. Im sure that wasnt what she had in mind.
Sass
Cute little doggie, is he yours or one of your little charges?
Calcite and my friends
Once again that idiot Viv has been carrying on about my parenting skills, and again from that little story I told yesterday.
Anyway, I did post to her and to make sure you can all read it, I also posted it onto ST's blog.
And dont worry,not angry,just feel the need to highlight that Viv is basically making it up out of her backside, as she couldnt be further from the truth. As we know, she doesnt let the truth in the way of her posting when it comes to the McCanns, does she, so why would I expect to be treated any differently??
Hiya Diane
I'm not normally like that but I know no lower limits when it comes to Vile. The way she takes things from here and twists them is just so sick.
She took your story and has been discussing nothing else ever since, so I thought why should I hold back!?
The dog is just a picture from the Internet. The pictures of my little charges are on my mobile phone, so the quality isn't too good.
Off to work now - normally start at 7 and now it's 8.10. Speak later if you're still up!
