As a blogger, I feel as though my life is an open book. My friends often joke that they don\u2019t really need to \u201ccatch up\u201d with me because I share so much of my life online that they already know what I\u2019ve been up to. And they are right…. to an extent.<\/p>\n

When my kids were newborns and toddlers I shared a lot about my experience as a mom to newborns and the ups and downs of parenting. I wrote about how I suffered from the baby blues, had a colic baby, my struggle and dislike for breastfeeding, the endless sleepless nights, the constant (and unsuccessful) battle to parent without screen time, how I was judged about the sex of my kids (which I had zero control over) and how I struggled to be a better parent all around!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Frankly, I\u2019ve shared a lot of my reality and my truths. Ultimately though, what I shared was pretty universal. Parents from all over the world could relate to most of it, maybe even all of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But now, as my kids are getting older, and our challenges and issues are more specific in nature, I find myself unable to share their stories with the same openness and candor that I once did. My kid’s stories are THEIR stories – not mine! I don\u2019t want them to read these posts one day and be embarrassed that I shared certain details about them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This conversation recently came up with one of my blogging friends. We both agreed that perhaps one day, when specific issues pass, we can write about things in retrospect and share stories about how we dealt with overcoming challenges versus focusing on the child and their struggles. However, that\u2019s certainly not an option now and some of the challenges we are dealing with may never truly \u201cpass\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As a parenting blogger this is challenging as I’ve always shared so much of my life and parenting struggles. However, I must respect the privacy of my kids. Luckily they still give me plenty to talk about along with my non stop “parenting fail” moments that I have on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

So there… even I have my limits.<\/p>\n

What are your limits when it comes to sharing about your kids online?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
