I have never deleted a comment that wasn't a duplicate. Until today. I have always appreciated both the positive and negative comments I have received and realize that blogging requires a thick skin.
That said, comments that call anyone in my family a derogatory term will be deleted. I was posting comments from my phone today and one slipped through and was present on the blog for a period of time. I do not think this comment was necessary or correct in their false assumptions about the situation nor did I appreciate the terms they used. That comment has been deleted and future comments from this user will be deleted as well.
I also want to let anyone reading know, that while I do allow anonymous comments -- I appreciate it when you include your name. I do track IP addresses and I can usually pinpoint with some accuracy where comments are coming from. Some readers have figured out loopholes around this -- but even then, when there are frequent stops, I can typically figure out who is commenting -- especially if it is someone I know in real life. I just want everyone who is visiting/responding to be aware of this. While you are "anonymous" you still leave your imprint (aka IP) on the blog any time you visit the site.

You tell them! People don't realize just how easy it is to track stuff down.
Wow. I might have to talk to you about that!
I was surprised that comment was posted but then I figured maybe you were giving "fair chance" to anyone's opinion.
Just wanted to say that I find your blog both captivating and (lately) heartbreaking. I can relate to some of the personal issues you are having with your mom. If you ever want to talk details, I'm open. I'm praying for you! ~Becca L.
Hi, I am one of the "lurkers" but would NEVER say anything bad! My Mother passed away January 2008 and I can really see some of our issues in your Blog! I am happy to say that we worked all of differences out before she passed! I wish you all of the luck in the world and hope that "This Too Shall Pass"!
