I love this post and I agree with you 110%. <BR/><BR/>Trolls are bullies and my Dad taught me that bullies are only that way because they feel so dirty and nasty about themselves that they have to hurt other people in order to make themselves feel better about their own inadequacies.<BR/><BR/>I arrived here from Amid Life's Crises and I can see why you two get along so well, she (and you) seem like wonderful open people. Its a refreshing thing to see and it makes me quite happy :-) <BR/><BR/>Have a great day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809056340517838488.post-79102923802840931852009-03-30T07:01:00.000-07:002009-03-30T07:01:00.000-07:00Dammit, I'd love to disagree with you ....but I ju...Dammit, I'd love to disagree with you ....but I just can't! lol<BR/><BR/>I agree!Real Live Lesbianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272384473977144125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809056340517838488.post-75358713258242807502009-03-30T06:07:00.000-07:002009-03-30T06:07:00.000-07:00Um, sorry that comment was so long.

I have always admired how you could write with such honesty and, whether I agreed with your stand or not, you have a way of showing me the other side of things.<BR/>I don't want that to end because one coward out there in the cyber world gave their opinion but couldn't stand by it by giving their name. That tells me that, while they may agree with you, they're ashamed to admit it in person.<BR/>I once had a commenter who read a post where I had had a rough day. It was during the summer and all three kids were home. I was sick but wasn't ready to admit it yet to anyone, especially myself. <BR/>And my kids were being kids and I wrote a post where I vented about how sometimes, being a stay at home parent can be HARD. That was the whole reason I started Rambling Thoughts in the first place, to vent, to ramble, and, sometimes, to remind myself that I am still me, I still exist and being a sahm isn't the only thing that defines me. But anyone who has read my blog long enough knows that I dearly love my children and am so thankful for the opportunity to stay home and raise them. It was just a bad day.<BR/>I then went on the next day to read my comments, and I had several from people who totally understood, but there was this one comment, anonymous of course, who said to me:<BR/>Maybe if you got up off of your fat ass and off the computer, your kids wouldn't be such assholes. You don't deserve your children because you are a terrible mother.<BR/><BR/>That comment was left on my place two years ago and I can still quote it word for word today. That was one of the most hurtful comment and even though I had all of the other comments from my "cyber friends", who understood and could sympathize, that comment was the one that stuck with me.<BR/>I almost shut down my blog that day and what's worse, I started questioning myself as a parent.<BR/>But the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. This one person, this coward, had stumbled upon my blog on a day that I was venting and felt that they knew me well enough from that one comment well enough to judge me.<BR/>So, not only did I not shut down my blog, or delete that comment, my next post was all about that coward and their anonymous comment. I told them where to stick that comment, I told them that if they didn't like my blog, they were lucky enough to have millions of other blogs to read, and I made fun of them and the comments on that post from my "cyber friends" were so supportive.<BR/>I also wrote in that post that I wasn't going to make a list of things that I did as a mother everyday to prove what kind of parent I was because my kids are living proof that they have good parents. <BR/><BR/>My point is, don't feel that you have to explain yourself, justify your thoughts and opinions, or change anything about the way you write on your blog. <BR/>This person was a coward. <BR/>You are not.Tracy Rambles On And Onhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16928404796336909746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809056340517838488.post-64309274998229722862009-03-27T18:28:00.000-07:002009-03-27T18:28:00.000-07:00I do hate the rude people.
