Seems I've become a little distracted by all the interesting and, at times, controversial/provocative posts I've been reading lately. I sit down prepared to publish a post on a chosen topic and then I read through the other blogs and my plans completely go out the window.

I left a comment for Nancy at Reactive Attachment Disorder Blog mentioning that I might be suffering with Blogger Identity Disorder. I feel like I'm still searching for my own idendity. My Blog is supposed to be about Adoptive Parenting, but, I feel like everything I read is about Adoptive Parenting. I look back at the list of topics I submitted to Adoption.com in my blogging application and I get fully prepared to write about them and then realize the topics are being, or, have been discussed elsewhere thoroughly.

One of the topics that I didn't submit to write about is actually my personal soapbox and that is guilt-free parenting. On my parenting blog that is all that I write about.

The bottom line to my message is that most parents want what is best for their children; however they achieve that (without being abusive) is the parent's right, the parent's choice, and basically noobdy's business; and parents should not let anyone make them feel guilty about it, not even their own kids.

I never thought to blog about the topic of Guilt-Free Adoptive Parenting. But, now that I see so many strong opinions voiced on how to parent adoptive children, I think I'm going to take a shot at it.

Instead of discussing this topic in its entirety on one post, I'm going to try to figure out how to use the drip function and see if I can publish the remainder of this post over the next several days. I think it will be interestng, and back on message.
