I sent ...Thank you for taking my comment seriously! I sent a similar message to another well-known blogger last week and she responded by, well, posting several more pictures of her child. It was a slap in the face, to say the least. <br /><br />There are so many people out there who think "it's just a picture", even parents, and I just can't get on board with that mentality. It's our job to protect our children, especially from pedophiles, virtual or in real life.Mirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043794251110130868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-7427483668985796082009-08-16T22:37:34.739-05:002009-08-16T22:37:34.739-05:00I just wanted to say that I think it is absolutely...I just wanted to say that I think it is absolutely AWESOME that you are "still" nursing!

I actually went back and deleted some of the pictures that I had posted in this entry. <br /><br />It wasn't that long ago that I was hypersensitive to the photos I would post, because of various hits that I was receiving on my site meter. I had considered making my blog private, because I was so worried about what kind of twisted people might be viewing pictures of my children. <br /><br />But then - as it always happens - time passes. And you tend to forget and let your guard down. And before you know it, you've got a new toddler running around with a bare bottom and it's the cutest thing you've ever seen. <br /><br />Thanks again.

But no more than you would be judged for a more uptight parenting style. Once I realized this, I quit giving a damn what anyone else thought of my choices. MY kids, MY choices. Some people think I'm too relaxed while others think I'm too uptight. But that's their problem, not mine. ;-) Just keep doing what works for YOU and YOUR kids.t in hdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-31370264312676547762009-08-15T22:38:05.666-05:002009-08-15T22:38:05.666-05:00Jen,

Pedophilia is an extremely popular, rising trend and there are many that target mommy blogs. I would hate for your children to become victims of these nauseating criminals. <br /><br />Also, if you have monitoring software, like SiteMeter, please check it regularly for search terms to make sure they aren't targeting your blog. Ours is pretty much an unknown family blog and we have been hit twice by pedos, even filing charges against one from CA. <br /><br />http://familyinternet.about.com/od/computingsafetyprivacy/a/Safe_to_post_photos_of_kids_online.htm<br /><br />http://www.youthonline.ca/safety/personalpicturedanger.shtml<br /><br />http://ojjdp.ncjrs.org/jjjournal/jjjournal598/net.html<br /><br />http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Southeast_Asia/JG26Ae01.html<br /><br />http://www.enough.org/inside.php?tag=stat%20archives<br /><br />http://www.familytreemd.org/files/371_Protecting%20our%20children%20from%20cyber-pedophiles%5B1%5D.pdfMirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043794251110130868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-21509383093300072782009-08-15T19:53:06.505-05:002009-08-15T19:53:06.505-05:00This was really encouraging for me.

I have been wondering all this time that you have written about extended nursing-Do you really have any milk still coming in?! My first, I nursed until 13 months and my last until (sadly) only 6 months. I just ran out of milk, patience and the time to sit there for so long. <br />Looks like a wonderful visit with family and friends. I would be very tempted to move back home!
