Commenting on The Erin Experiment Blog

It's been almost two weeks since I received my first negative blog comment. In those two weeks, I've had some time to look inward and contemplate why I felt so angry by the poster's opinion. Other than the fact that I'd already had a few blows to my Stepmom psyche that week, I also determined that I take most anti-Stepmom sentiments personally.

I've always been a "when life hands you lemons, make lemonade" person so the negative comment prompted me to establish a commenting policy for my blog. Being a personal blog, it's in the best interest of my sanity to have a policy.

Cool. I stopped going to a stepmom group website because of the negative comments posed by those that weren't even stepmoms. I couldn't believe the lack of support. Way to go!

I love comment policies! My husband's ex-wife found my blog a couple of years ago and started leaving hater comments. Good for you - fantastic blog by the way!
