"I have been blogging for almost a year now about raising my son in Hong Kong and I have to say this is one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had -- other than the actual parenting experience, of course. Support in the form of thoughtful emails or comments from other mommies who've read my blog helps me do so much better. And at the end of the day that's what I want -- to get better and better at parenting," said Aileen who blogs at http://raisingrockstar.com.
Putting information about your kids on the internet can however be scary. Privacy is certainly a big concern. "Yes, I do feel very strongly about protecting the privacy of your child on the internet. I recommend not disclosing his/her real name on the blog as a start," says Aileen. "As my blog popularity began to increase, so did my fears that I'm disclosing too much and providing fodder for bullies when my son gets older. In the end, the blog is supposed to facilitate and enhance my parenting experience, not increase the number of pitfalls. Keeping that perspective is everything to my mummy blog."
