So far, my kids don’t mind what I’ve written about them. I don’t think any of their friends read blogs, or have any clue that I write, so it’s not impacting them, so far. My oldest is 14, and is a very mature child…she reads my blog occassionally. I can see her blogging some day soon…

Great post today BreadCrumbs… Ali would be proud of your guest posting! I have a sixteen year old daughter and I blog about her a lot but she’s a pretty free spirit and very open minded so she doesn’t mind that I do. I also blog very openly and sometimes pretty graphically about my own life (ALL aspects of it) and she (and her twenty year old brother) don’t have any problems with that either. They both read my blog and even send their friends there… despite reading and thus knowing, about exactly what their mom does on Friday nights when she kicks them out of the apartment.

My oldest is five and I already find myself keeping a little quiet about him. Kids are cruel, and I don’t want stuff to haunt him.

But funny stuff? Or triumphs? You better believe I will share them

(Well done on your guest post!)

I am about to become a regular blogger for the newspaper in my area. I told my daughter I would use an alias if she wanted me to. Surprisingly, she said she was fine with me using her name!!!

My kids love Thursday Thirteen and often suggest ideas. My son actually wrote mine last week…13 things that are awesome about my Mom…of course, he was trying to suck up to get out of grounding, but I’ll take praise where I can get it.

I’m notorious for blogging whatever I want. The girls (15,14, 11 and 9) all know that I blog, the older ones read it sometimes, and that any random act of stupidity or moment of hilarity will be posted on my blog. My 15 year old breaks my heart during her walk through life and I blog about it, send her to read it and she respects what I have to say and mostly the response that people give her, the advice and the stories they share with her. She sometimes tells me, “Yeah, one of your readers said that happened to her.”

When I say I have THEE BEST OF THE INTERNET when it comes to Readers, I am not kidding.

I hardly ever blog about the older two, not that I love them any less, but I think they would die if any of their friends found it, The littlest I blog about non-stop she isn’t old enough to care or yell at me if I write about something totally embarassing

I guess we have to deal with it on a situation-by-situation basis… as with most things, time will tell!

Hi Chantal! Good job!
I worry a lot about blogging about my kids, too. I try to avoid any topics that they might potentially find embarrassing – but remembering my teen years, that would be any topic at all, basically. Lucky for me, my oldest is going to be 9 and I still have a while to blithely write without worrying TOO much.
