Taking the high road has nothing--zero, zilch, zip, nada--to do with what anybody else does. It is 100% about your own actions. Bitching and whining about what people who may or may not be from this board did or didn't do says more about you than it does about them. It doesn't matter if they post pictures of their poop on your blog for a whole week. YOUR reaction is still completely up to you. You claim to be so very enlightened, yet you can't grasp the simple concept of taking responsibility for yourself. Playing the blame game doesn't flatter anybody, least of all a wacko like you who thinks she can somehow credibly dispense marriage advice while at the same time bragging about the dissolution of her marriage.
so your argument is that you hate me because i act like i'm better than you, but your advice is to act like i'm better than you....interesting.
i'm dying that you think calendula gives you some kind of credibility, or that cotton jammies will make me take seriously your name-calling. i'm dying that YOUR board linked to ME and said all manner of horrible things about me, but I'M batshit crazy. that's really pathetic. go back and read the comments that your friends wrote about my blog and then we can talk about how batshitcrazy it is to "care so much about what othrer people eat" or the virtues of "taking the high road."
I thought she linked to us.
no. you linked to me, trashed what you saw and then i linked to the trashing.
and LMAO at the high road lecture after your behavior. L. M. A. O.

Look, I have no problem with your diet or the way you raise your children or anything else. But you have to know that your tone is upsetting. You literally say you're a better mother than other people, and that's both hurtful and incredibly incendiary. You can't possibly be surprised when people take offense.
Different isn't terrible. it's just different. It's not necessarily worse or better, quantifiably speaking, even though you may think it is. Just don't be a dick. That's all.
One thing our ancestors probably were that you aren't? Fucking HUMBLE, lady. You need a good dose of humility.
but it is quantifiably better. do you think you can't scientifically measure the difference between somebody who eats like me and somebody who engages in the average american diet? do we not have an obesity epidemic in this country? are cancer rates not through the roof? heart disease caused by the incredible amount of salt and cholesterol and crap. is the truth not the truth because it might hurt somebody's feelings? remember back when we thought that way about smokers? now that behavior is illegal in most public places. things that are unhealthy, bad for the environment, and bad for our families are BAD. i'm not going to apologize for calling bad things bad
"for some reason"? You are self-centered and delusional GOLD, woman.
Or.....person whom AE is pretending to be.
yes. for some reason. for some reason, i was put on a list of blogs written by crazy people. people like my blog. it's one thing to read about a certain way of life, but it's completely different to see the results. i am living the results and i am encouraging people who want the same happy, healthy results that i have. why would you begrudge someone their health? and somebody who is trying to help others make the same healthy decisions so that they can enjoy their lives and their bodies as much as i do. i bet your husbands would appreciate some of you looking at a blog about healthy, clean living from time to time.
how about if you have another oreo and enjoy your long, slow march toward your slow agonizing death. its' really not my problem if people don't like the way i eat or raise my family...but they are interested. how many hits did your blog get today?
p.s. didn't you post before about starting a formula blog? i'm really not surprised that this would be your reaction to me and my kid
Peggy, Peggy! What do you think of vegetarians? Would you ever eat human meat?
no, i would never eat human meat. i eat the meat i was designed to eat the way i was designed to eat it. i don't know why that's so hard for you guys to understand.
there are vegetarian versions of the paleo lifestyle...it involves hemp seed, grain-like seeds, and tons of eggs. but doesn't that sound boring? why wouldn't you just eat the way you're meant to eat? your body will thank you. certainly, mine has.
no, we discussed putting it in our custody agreement that he must maintain our paleo lifestyle when he has the kids. why would i let a man take my children who doesn't respect my parenting decisions or want to do what's best for my kids?
Funny, I was wondering the same about him.
if he wants to see them, he'll maintain a certain standard of care. i think any divorced mom would want that for her children
Does she have full custody of her kids? Is the "worm" husband stuffing them full of poisonous vaccines and sunscreen when he's got custody?
no, we discussed putting it in our custody agreement that he must maintain our paleo lifestyle when he has the kids. why would i let a man take my children who doesn't respect my parenting decisions or want to do what's best for my kids?
