A Plea To All Bloggers With Kids

I am NO saint, I’ll have to let you all know right off. Don’t throw rotten eggs at me, but when I started working with various advertisers I quickly realized that when I need to do a job my brat would be the first to be seeking attention. I am writing this because I felt extremely disturbed when I read in some blog about how they would get all upset with their kids because they’ve got work to do, and then they start shouting at the kids. My heart goes out to them because this is not healthy.

I get a fair amount of work from all my advertisers, but I also make sure that even if there were opps dropping I would never ignore my kid, nor scream at her. Like i say, I am no saint, but I consciously make sure that this does not happen because my kid catches on easily and she might get the wrong idea, thinking that money or my online job is more important than her. That cannot be farther from the truth because nothing is more important than my brat.

Money is important, I am very sure, to just about anyone and everyone but one has to really weigh the consequences. Do you really want to bring up your kids thinking that you are a mad man or woman? Or put fear in your kid’s mind and heart for $10??? My kid is very sensitive, she can sense when I am sick or upset or grouchy because I didn’t get enough sleep. And they DO understand more than they let on.

I’m no saint, once again I tell you, and yes, sometimes I feel like screaming at my brat, but I make a VERY conscious effort never to shout or scream at her because I don’t want my brat to grow up fearing me or thinking that she is inferior. I don’t want her to feel that she is less important than my job, the money or anyone else in my life. So here I plead to all blogging mummies and daddies to please consider your position and see yourself thru’ your kid’s eyes. Do you see an ugly, mad and loud crazy person in your kid’s eyes..?? It is not too late to change now! YOU can do it and make that difference in your kid’s life and eyes. I know you love your kids and that money is important but you can make the right choice.
