'Please don't make us blog you'
Readers of Blogging Baby began complaining about the "negative and downer" stories of parents abusing their children that were more frequently making their way on to the Blogging Baby website. This is when Jay Andrew Allen decided to spin these often gruesome tales off into their own site.
While it's definitely not for the faint of heart, Parents Behaving Badly was born in January of 2005. "It became apparent to me that aggregating all of these stories of parental abuse was of value to people." explains Allen whose blog now sees as many as 1,000 visitors a day.
Does anyone know of a link for discussions on less horrible abuse? I actually have a dilemma about neighbors who let their way underage children and the kids' friends smoke and drink in the house. I sent an email to a cop friend for advice, but is there anywhere out there to discuss gray areas?
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance.
no. but i think that if you sent it in to this blog, they would publish it. as they seem to publish lots of different things that relate to children. this blog here doesnt deal with real abuse. I dont know if you are new here or read the original submission guidelines. but they are often soliciting for opinions and stories on here. probably because there cant be a bad nanny sighting everyday. right?
ReplyDeleteWe could most definitely post it here as a discussion, opinion, article or sighting! Please send me an email to isawyournanny@cooltoad.com or send me a private instant message using the Meebo toolbar.
