Comments on: My Mother Raised Me to be a Lion http://beyondmom.com/2008/08/my-mother-raised-me-to-be-a-lion/ A mommyblog (mom blog) that covers parenting, life, business, tech, current events, television, and it all somehow connects together and helps you understand me a little better!

Just checking :) He did leave links. Two of them. I edited them, because you can hate on me in my blog but I'll be damned if you'll get traffic out of the deal too LOL - maybe that makes me a bad blogger to not leave the comment pure but f-him. Thanks for your input. And for commenting. It reminded me to put you on my blogroll! LaTara, have I told you I love you yet this month? Just checking :)

I don't see once place where Jen blamed her mother for anything....what are you reading?? Jen, you did an awesome job of showing how as adults we get to a point where we learn that we are responsible for our own destiny and cannot look at the past as a reason not to excel in life. I am glad that you and your mom are developing a working relationship :) LaTaras last blog post..<a href="http://www.momunplugged.com/a-whole-new-view/" rel="nofollow">A Whole New View</a> I noticed that Stefan did not leave a link to his site but to him I say read the post again and make sure to wipe the mess from your eyes that is obviously there.

But, you know, since this was the ONLY flack I got from the post - maybe that's just something I have to accept happens when I stop writing for a PG audience and start writing from my heart and experience. Thanks for commenting Sam. You rock :) I am SO amazed someone misread my post so entirely.

Really amazing. It's hard to understand, as a child, what our parents go through for their child. Looking back as an adult makes it all so much clearer. As for Stefan, ignore. He OBVIOUSLY didn't read the same post. Amazing Jen. Really amazing. It’s hard to understand, as a child, what our parents go through for their child.

As for Stefan, ignore. He OBVIOUSLY didn’t read the same post.

I am a photographer and it is my job to objectify women for what they really are... you are a skell of the lowliest variety. To blame your mother for all your shortcomings in life is pathetic.

I think you walked the transparency line most deftly. Okay, I can see why you were a little uneasy about how readers would react--I would have been too. But, really, I don't think you can ever go wrong saying "this is where I came from and I'm okay with it." After all the twitter buzz I had to come and see what it was about.

I'm glad she is too. It's always interesting! @Violet - After I'm done being absolutely dumbstruck you left a comment on my post (because I'm a fan and stuff, in case you didn't know) and get my jaw all off the floor and whatnot, it will just fall again. Seems talking about the stuff *I* want to talk about really is the way to go. I get comments here and e-mails and DMs on Twitter galore. Who knew I could go a little farther on the transparency scale and no one got hurt! Yea! @Jenni Aw thanks. I’m glad she is too. It’s always interesting!
