I changed the settings for my blogs in terms of commenting.
I’ve had a blog for I think…almost 5 years. It’s VERY rare that I get a negative comment on my blogs. Believe that or not, I just experience more positive comments or those that cause a debate more than anything else.
However, in going through and approving comments today, I realized that someone made a comment regarding my blog on deadbeat dads and actually said (and I’m paraphrasing) that it’s ‘better for a woman to have a child with a deadbeat than to abort one like you and other women do/did.’
I can’t help but to laugh b/c when people anonymously post comments such as that, create IDs for the sole purpose of being an asshole, you can’t help but to wonder how fucked up their home lives are. It’s not really for me to try and piece together but still…you can’t help but to question it.
But for entertainment purposes (and b/c it’s Friday, woot!), I will entertain that narrow minded viewpoint for a half of a second. I have been extremely open about many aspects of my life, including my decision to abort a child back in 2004. And while I do carry strong emotions regarding that decision, I will say that I definitely…without a DOUBT…did what was best for ME, that child and the sake of my own sanity b/c the father and I are NO longer together and definitely NOT on speaking terms. Even after a brief reconciliation, we fell out again b/c he is choosing to continue to be the same man that made me ridiculously SICK some five years ago. It’s not my job to try and rehabilitate a man or anyone else for that matter. Say whatever you will about the decision…I will say that for that baby’s sake, it’s a good thing that he/she is not here b/c this guy most certainly would’ve been the deadbeat that I spoke ill of HERE.
I dunno what else I have to do to prove it…maybe get it tattooed on my body via chargrilled branding but it takes a LOT to hurt my feelings. A lot! You’ve gotta come MUCH harder than throwing some shit in my face that I’ve already discussed (be it directly or indirectly) to really get under my skin.
It’s good to know that a new year has rolled around and folks are still trying! LOL!
Have a great weekend, folks!
ETA: I changed the settings back. I refuse to change the format of my blog b/c of one damn person! lol HOLLA!
