Blog post on its way, because I’m rage typing right now. Just wanted you to know what’s coming, and I don’t edit well when I type emotionally. Poorly edited blog posts aren’t something I want to put out there.

 

If you missed it, feel free to go to the female version of XODick-dot-com and read the article about parenting being a hobby of privilege, and the comments, if you dare, then you’ll have some basis for understanding why I am not a fan of sitting around lobbing grenades in the Mommy Wars because of the choices you have.
