Momversation: Censoring Your Blog
user
We love our Momversation panelists because they are affecting,
forthright, (and great) writers. But they've sometimes
received criticism for their blogs, especially when they're
writing about their children. So,
Rebecca Woolf of Girl's Gone Child asks her fellow mom
bloggers, "How (and when) do you censor your own
blogs?"
What's your opinion on self-censorship? Do you think
mommy bloggers should write about their children? Their
partners? What is appropriate to write about, and what should
be off limits? Have
you ever been criticized for
what you've written on your blog? Join the Momversation
by commenting or posting in related forums

My blog is uncencored, and real.
Not to mention really interesting
Confessions Of A Real-Life College Student
Read it.
With love,

I find this topic hitting home as I am just beginning my blog, how will I proceed, what boundries will I create? Who will be upset or offended by what I've written about my own life and observations. Will I even care? I think I will just do what feels right, and stick with the rule: Don't post it if you wouldn't say it to their face.

Seeing as I have one that is internet savy I don't write anything that I would not want the kids to read!

I found out the hard way that I need to censor some things on my personal blog, so that my children don't pay for it in the school community. And more important, so I do not hurt feelings.
