Where's Mom?

So, as you can all tell, I am on a little soapbox today. I absolutely LOATHE teen parents who cannot accept the responsibility of their actions. If you didn't want to take care of her, there are people who can't even have children who would love to adopt her.

Were you the last person to buy your child's diapers, clothes, formula, etc.? Not, did you go to the store and get it, but, did you spend your own money on it? If the answer is 'no', I am talking about you. (Now, if your parents/friends bought it as a gift, I am not talking about you).

How long has it been since you last left your child overnight? Elliot is 10 months old, and has never been a single night without me. I guess how long it has been is only half the question. WHY did you leave your child overnight. If the answer is concert, party, drinking, etc, you need to better your parenting skills.

Please. Try to straighten out your life for your child. Don't keep pushing it off, eventually it will be too late, and  your child will learn to resent you for it. Spend more time with her. READ to her, don't just turn on the TV and hope she is ok. Play games with her. Most importantly, tell her you love her...EVERY day. Have yelling matches, roll in the floor with her, kiss her, hug her, and tickle her. Your kid is a blessing, and you would rather party. Not only will she resent you for it, but eventually you will realize your error and resent yourself for it. And you can't take that back. Enough of all this mean/negative stuff. A happy blog is on its way!
