I hate anonymous commenters that can throw rocks out of the shadows. Direct email would have been more appropriate.

And I have to wonder about he motive, we are all adults and unlikely to significantly change at this point so why lecture NO/Karen? Does she really think NO/Karen hasn't thought about this issue before? I think comment writer was being self rightous and patronizing. As for the comment about the truckloads of designer clothes, I don't understand how some in the mommy blog community are about money. I've read in other blogs where the bloggers have been attacked for being "rich/superficial" ie. Waiting for Sophie during Thanksgiving and Eva Las Vegas. What is the problem about how they spend it and their lifestyles? this I am curious about, is it jealousy? envy? Anyway if I don't like a blog or what it conveys, I just don't go back to it. So the pictures of outfits/ shopping habits bother her, why the need to tell/bring down NO/Karen during her time of excitement? My opinion, MEAN! Sorry for rambling, I just like NO/Karen and a lot of the other bloggers and feel strongly about supporting them.

I certainly think "anonymous" is entitled to her opinion, but really chose the wring time and manner to express it. I really think it should have been done more diplomatically and by private email. The original post was very presumptuous about the blog author and I don't think that gets anyone anywhere. I saw that comment, too, and everything that ensued afterward.

I read a couple of the other blogs you posted links to and they were well written too! I will never know what it feels like to be on either end but i can empathize with both a-mothers and b-mothers. I love reading your blog and about your points of view on these issues. Thank you for sharing. It broadens my mind and that's what I look for. I think what you said, it the nail on the head.
