Thats all I can be.....

I have took a break from blogging due to my lovely troll I had leaving ugly comments on my post.. I don't know why I took it personal but I did.. I usually don't care what people say about me but when they target my parenting it hits to close to home.. I think of myself as an awesome parent. I really have the most well mannered children out there.. I get told this all the time.. My kids always say yes ma'am and no ma'am etc...

My kids know that struggling is a part of life and everything doesn't get handed to them. I think by raising them this way, that it makes me a good mom.. I don't know why I let a coward get to me. I mean really if you have such hateful things to say then why do it unknown? Why not use your real name??

So from this point on I am not going to worry about what anyone thinks of me. I am going to continue to raise my children the way I do, think the things I think.. I will be me, cause in life that's all I can be =)

I parent this way, You parent that way......

I have been getting lectures all night from family members and people from FB, saying that my 12 1/2 year old son is to young for a girlfriend.. In some peoples eyes, this may be true but I don't think that there is anything wrong with him having girlfriend,especially since they have been "dating" since October 2009. The only time they really see each other is at school and an occasional night with parents... They text and talk online! I trust my children, I feel like if I have to give them the chance to be trusted and if for some reason they mess up and I cant trust them anymore,well that's something we will deal with when that time comes! I believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I do "hear"them.. Doesn't mean I have to agree with them! My daughter lives with her dad and has NO life.. She is almost in 10th grade and cant have a bf, cant go to mall with friends or movies with friends. I hate that she has no life... People raise their children in all different ways, I chose to let mine have a GF at almost 13.......
