disclaimer
please, for the love of god, don't just randomly add me unless you really feel we have something in common cause i won't add you as a friend if i don't give a shit about what you have to say, and i expect others to do the same with me. if i bore you, remove me from your friends list. i won't take offense to it. i do the same thing to my friends list on a regular basis. so if i remove you, don't take it personally. it's not that i don't like you or am mad or anything silly like that, chances are i just don't think we have much in common and/or i don't feel like reading your journal anymore. i have a life, i only read those that interest me.
also, just so you know, i spank my kids. i also don't breastfeed. my son used a pacifier, wears cloth diapers and is circumcised. i yell at my daughter every so often and joke about selling her on ebay or to the gypsies or the circus (at least i'm not beating her). i let my daughter play with barbie dolls even though i don't agree with the image they portray - she likes them. i let my kids watch cartoons. i know these things aren't anyone's business but my own but apparently i have to warn people now about these things. if you have a problem with any of those things then by all means don't add me as a friend, or keep your opinion to yourself unless i ask for it. i will not judge your parenting techniques as long as you don't judge mine. every parenting style is different and mine works for me and for my kids.
above all, this is a JOURNAL. therefore, there is a good chance i might write things that some may consider tmi, or things that you may not agree with, or things that pertain to me at a certain point in time but can change minutes, hours, days, months, or years later. despite the public forum that this journal lives in, it is still a journal.
