My friend Jenn – whom I love dearly and needs coffee, like most mommies I know – has another thought provoking post (dammit!) about teens and the parents who blog about them. Namely, me. Because, you know, I am a mom, with teens, tweens, a precocious seven-year-old and I happen to keep a blog. Or, two.
Why?
Well, it’s like told Jenn:
"I’ve been blogging for 5 years now (4 kids all under the age of 10, ‘nuf said) and, yes…the stories have
changed…a little…but, it’s still OUR story and I don’t write about
anything that I (or, my kids) would be uncomfortable sharing, in real
life.Although, my kids are in school full-time, my job is far from being done. I will have TWO teenagers, in a couple of months (ACK!) and personally, I feel that being their mom has become even harder.
However, my reasons for keeping This Full House remain the same – blogging is cheaper than therapy!"
Then, one of my kids goes and bleeds all over herself and what if I told you that the first thing I did was Twitter it?
