I don't like the way you parent.

An article about thinking and not speaking. 

Speaking gets you in trouble... hell, thinking gets you in trouble. I should know. I am a PRO at trouble!

Before you become a parent, you are bombarded with unsolicited advice and what others think you should and shouldn't do to/with your child. It is up to you how you choose to react to these things. With that being said, I am one of those crazies who posts all over my facebook wall about my parental beliefs and have VERY strong opinions. For the most part, I do not take into consideration what anyone else thinks. Something I told a friend of mine today..

'I think I'm right and you think you're right.. but I have been out to prove that my right is righter than your right' 

I am DYING to change that attitude. And, I am getting a bit better. But, I have lost SO many friends due to my strong opinions. I expect people to just like me for who I am. Brutal opinions and all! I mean, that is ideal, isn't it? It would be so easy if the world just worked out that way. 

Sadly it doesn't. People expect you to tone it down and you expect them to change their minds. I've learned from a few good friends that as you age, you become a lot better at keeping your opinions to yourself. 

Let me put it to you this way; 

I don't give a s4!t how you parent. I don't. I guess its just my argumentative side. I'm FAR from proud of it. 

I love people. I love having friends. I am learning to keep my mouth shut. I am LEARNING. It won't happen overnight. 

To my future friends; 

bare with me. Sometimes I suck. I am learning. 

I will say I'm sorry often. I am learning.

If you're not willing to put up with me and my personality, that's okay. I respect that. 

Just please remember... even people like me need friends. We just need to learn to adjust our attitudes. I will always have an opinion, and I may even tell you my opinion.. but, I am learning to deliver my opinions in a more respectful, less brutal manner. 

To all of you who choose to stay; thank you. I appreciate you for helping me to learn how to speak and react to certain things.
