People who don’t know much about “mommy bloggers” don’t get it — we are trying to be the kind of moms who are there for our children instead of sticking them in daycare all day and work outside the house. I am trying to make a decent living with my blogging because staying home with my child is more important to me than buying more stuff. I consider myself not absorbed with my own “branding;” I am an entrepreneur running a business from home. Men get applauded for this, moms have to explain themselves?

Thank you for your insightful post. Here is my response, if you are interested: http://dagmarbleasdale.com/2010/03/mommy-bloggers-and-their-depiction-in-the-new-york-times/

Best,

Angela,
Great post and it really applies to both genders as the recent economy has blurred the breadwinner line.
See you on Suite!

Love this post. Several thoughts going through my head, but it’s late and I can’t seem to articulate them. I’m probably failing at commenting because I like to take care of my children and make sure they get their schooling done while I’m trying to build an online business. Of course we are all extremely backward and unsocialized. I’m so awful my daughter wants to be a vlogger too.

Some weeks I’d just about kill for 4 hours without my kids. I’m extremely lucky to get that in a month!

And let’s not talk about vegetables…I have to hide them in my husband’s food!

Terrific response to a mean-spirited article. Hard to fathom what Jennifer’s gripe is. Really gratuitous bashing. Perhaps her planets were out of alignment that day…….

great blog post! I agree with you that you can make time for yourself, your children, your husband and even outside interests … it’s all about balance and making it work for you… I love the outlet that blogging provides and try to get to it daily, but no one is going to beat me about the head repeatedly if I decide to take a day to go to the park with my little guy or spend all day volunteering at the school library…
Thank you for writing an articulate post about how you blog
