Blabbable Secrets

I never thought I would say this

she’s having a hard time. respect that.

I am her Mother. When she is having a hard time in life then I worry about her. I Love her. I raised her by myself for years. Nobody knows like I do when she is hurting.

you do not need to remove yourself from her life completely.

I have not removed myself from her life completely. What gave you that impression? I am always there for my daughter even when it doesn’t seem like it to some.

going through her whole facebook page and unliking/deleting everything is so immature and unnecessary.

First of all … she requested that I not participate on her facebook page. I am honoring that request. I didn’t go through and delete all of my comments … just the ones that date back to July 2009.

There is nothing immature and unnecessary about respecting my daughter’s requests.

you are her mother.

Duh! I AM her Mother. I AM the one that knows better than anybody what I need to do.

you should know by now that respecting your teenager is key.

You keep referencing the word “respect” yet you have NO RESPECT whatsoever.

she broke up with her boyfriend. she’s going to be upset, moody, and irritable. just apologizing is enough.

Do you have children? If so … how old are your children? Do you have teenagers? If so … how old are your teenagers?

Of course she’s going to be moody and irritable. I understand that. You however … do Not understand what our family has been through as a result of her being with this boy.

you should never pretend that your daughter is somewhere out of state when really, she’s close to home.

Part of respecting our kids when they go off to college is allowing them to figure things out on their own without offering up an opinion OR help with something unless of course they ask for that help.

Most kids go out of state when they go off to college. Mine didn’t … she stayed here in town. There are days I think that it would have been nice if she had gone away (out of the state) or even just a few hours away for college. She gains her independence and has to learn to rely on herself because Mom and Dad aren’t always around to pick up the pieces. Backing off in a sense is showing your child that you respect them. How will they ever learn how to stand on their own two feet if we (her parents) are constantly sticking our noses into her business?

Of course we make it a point to know what’s going on in her life but we are not always going to vocalize that we know what she is going through until and unless she comes to us about it. THAT my dear … is RESPECT.

that is a completely horrible thing to do.

You sound like one of those parents (if you actually have kids) that had to rock your baby to sleep every single night in order to get them to go to sleep.

You have no idea what “HORRIBLE” is …

that is negligence of your own children.

You my dear are a BITCH for even making that suggestion.

you need to stop overreacting.

You my dear need to take a good look in the mirror.

your daughter needs you, even though she is in college and will never admit it.

Of course she needs me. I know that! She has admitted to me that she needs me and I am always there for her. I always will be there for her even when I am 100 and she is 80.

you need to be there for her.

Duh!? You know … your comment was really out of line. But that’s how it goes when I post stuff and have a comment option. You are entitled to say whatever you want to even though I (and I’m sure others) do not agree with your words.

being there for her does not mean forcing yourself upon her. let her deal with things the way she is used to dealing with them, and be there for support when she comes to you. don’t go to her, but don’t ignore her. dealing with teenagers is indeed tricky, but the way you’re acting is like you’re giving up. never give up.

You are contradicting yourself.

and NEVER POST BLOGS ABOUT YOUR KIDS FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE. how do you think that makes her feel?

It’s pretty apparent that you are not a blogger and you don’t understand blogs or the concepts behind blogging. If you did you would have never made that statement.

Of course I’m going to blog about whatever I feel like blogging about. The title of this blog is “BLABBABLE SECRET CONFESSIONS.” Do you understand what that means? No, it’s pretty obvious you do NOT understand OR get it.

My daughter (aka Children) have no idea that this blog even exists. There are a few people that know who I am but for the most part I don’t use real names and that is the entire point of this blog. To be able to get on here and write whatever I feel like writing. You don’t like it … don’t read it!

you’re talking about her to anyone that will listen, and you’re not even asking for advice. it doesn’t matter if you’re venting or asking for advice. you should not broadcast your daughters problems. if she ever found out, i’m sure she would hate you for a good couple of years or so. seriously, you need to think about your actions before you do pursue them. that’s all i have to say.

Hey … Bitch on wheels … why don’t you MOVE ALONG. Go back to work. Stop reading my blog if you don’t like it so much.
