she does sometimes but it kinda makes me uncomfortable
Ha. All she’ll do is yawn.
No. No. No. No. No.
She has on occasion. I don’t think she has for quite awhile though.
I don’t have much to hide. Though I haven’t given her the link, lol. I’d rather her not read my angsty college entries.
WELL. The bitch is six feet under.
So… yeah. xD
Noo
yep and she loves it
Don’t care.
my mom and dad both do….my mom finds it boring but my dad reads everyday. he even gives me ideas.
Not much on my site, so no reason why not.
My mom and I are pretty open about everything. So, it wouldn’t bother me much. She knows that I have a blog, but probably wouldn’t be able to navigate it very well.
She already does. T_T I wish she wouldn’t, though.
God knows what method of murder she’s going to practice on my body when she reads about me constantly calling her a bitch.
My mom already knows all about me, good and bad, and including my outside-the-mainstream ideas too. BUT she has NO computer and only sees what I show her on mine about once a week. Does this qualify me as a control freak?
Hell no.
She reads it and leaves nice/encouraging comments from time to time.
ah, noes
Definitely not.
She knows I have a blog…. she’s just too technologically impaired to understand how to get to Xanga to read it!
I wouldn’t mind. She wouldn’t comment or talk to me about what she reads. She knows that if I wanted to tell her personally then I would of just made tea for the both of us and spilled everything. It’s just how we are. But she knows I have a xanga and I write frequently but she doesn’t care to read it, since it’s my personal space.
I started my xanga as a way to keep in touch with my family, so no problem. I am careful about what I post, though. Sometimes I wish everyone blogged as if their mom was reading it.
Not really, but I wouldn’t care if she did.
meh
I don’t have anything bad on here or post very often, so I don’t really care.
But at one time she was stalking me on Xanga, so that’s when I created my alternate site. She’s not my Facbeook friend anymore because of her creepy stalking habits. It doesn’t seem like she’s noticed yet though . . .
nope, but I have an inkling that she does anyway, oh well, she knows I enjoy drinking and blogging – could be worse.
nice choice of pictures by the way. I’m glad my mom’s not a milf.
Hahaha I’ve had, like, 239432, so I don’t think she would be particularly interested or able to read them all. Also, I’m pretty much old enough to say what I want these days. She would’ve had a better time when I started with it at 13. It’d be more manageable back then, too.
For me, its not a matter of whether I want her to or not. She already does.
She is Krihavok here on xanga.
Not really, she’d realize that I’m not as collected as I appear to be
No
I wouldn’t want her to but if she did it’s not like I’d get in trouble. But I know my dad would be mad. The drama we go through with my sister and just problems in general are supposed to be kept to ourselves. *rolls eyes*
Um… no. Not really.
My mom died 9 years ago. My step mom reads my blogs.
Certainly not. Anyway, she’d have to work on her English to read my blog. (We’re French)
don’t care if she does or not. most of the content she would never be able to relate to.
It’s not that interesting so she probably wouldn’t want to. She checked it out once or twice a few years ago when I first got one, but that’s about it.
If mine was around, it would not bother me. My son has an account though and I would visit his site and leave comments just like his other friends/subs. I always saw his site as a side of him I didn’t know…. Very expressive and thought provoking.
She is gone now but if she were here it would be ok with me.
I don’t care either way. I’m not going to go out of my way to give her the link, but I wouldn’t care if she stumbled across it and read it or anything.
She reads both of my blogs (here and on Blogger) and occasionally comments on the other one. Kind of got in trouble one time when, before I knew that she read it, I wrote a very long expletive-filled rant on how terrible she was being about the damn dog, and she made me rewrite it without curse words, so I just put *beep* over every curse. She wasn’t pleased…
I figured out the Xanga rule a long time ago (I have a lot of Xanga rules, lol): “Don’t writie it if you wouldn’t want your motherr, your s.o., or your kid to read it’
I do not want them to read “my Xanga..’ It’s like “my Diary” and it’s personal. But this is the internet, after all. And, in any case, it will outlive me and my ability to keep others from reading.
I just read others’ comments. I am absolutely shocked at how many mothers monitor their children’s Xanga writings!!! Is there nothing sacred? Don’t kids have privacy?!!! This is no different than a “Diary” for them (just like it is for me an my diary was in 1975!) — and I shake my head and wonder where is the respect and privacy? Knowing everything your kid writes is not the same as loving, trusting, and reaceiving/giving love..
I made my xanga open to public, i do not care who will read it- including my parents, i can only happy if someone would appriciate my writings
NO
Nah, I got nothing to hide!
If I got along with my mom it wouldn’t matter. It’s my husband that has the issue with things I say.
NO
She doesn’t read my other account, but she reads this one… I made this one public so the stuff in it is okay for anyone to read who might know me. She likes it too because I live in New York and she lives in Oregon, so it’s an easy way for her to keep up with what’s going on in my life when I don’t have time for the phone.
She reads it.
Sometimes it’s the only way for her to know what’s up. lol.
Preferably not, but only cause my xanga is my place to vent. I tell her everything anyway, but still.
Well I keep my xanga site tame…it’s facebook I worry about!
I wouldn’t care.
well on this xanga page i guess i wouldn’t mind, but in the private one o.O i leave all the posts on.. well… private. lol
i wont even let my best friend read it
Wouldn’t be as bad as most people here are complaining. I still say no of course… most of what I write are things I wouldn’t want to talk to her about. Although a lot of it is also stuff I already do. The rest is just mainly deeper into my head then what I spit out of my mouth to anyone.
Absolutely not. My mother is one of those people who twists everything in to somehow being about her and how nobody loves her and everybody blames her for everything. Or, it somehow becomes about my sister. I posted that my dog died on Facebook and my mother comments with “Think about your sister too. There’s flooding where she is. Her work is closed today”. Since I went to the extreme of moving thousands of miles away, I aint sharing any blog address.
Definitely not. When I was in high school, someone sent an anonymous (typed) letter to my mum saying that I was hurting, they didn’t want to “loose” my friendship, blah blah blah, and enclosed the address (not this one). They even put butterfly stickers on the outside. Of course, I was livid about the invasion or privacy and the obvious lack of balls regarding the sender. I never did find out who it was, but I kept the letter. It’s really funny in retrospect, but even now, I wouldn’t want my mum having access to my blogging thoughts.
Lol. Screw that then I’d have spam of her telling me how to do things across all my posts :/.
She does read it. She had a Xanga before I did! I love it when my mom reads my Xanga. She’s supportive, encouraging, hilarious, and pretty much awesome. I’m honored my mom takes the time to read my blog. ~V
She used to all the time. It’s how I kept her updated when I was living in different states.. HAHA But she doesn’t anymore.. Kinda glad about that too
i’m lucky enough to have experienced the, “learning that your mom has been reading your personal xanga for almost a year and you didn’t censor a goddamn thing” feeling. it’s really unpleasant. but she brought it on herself for looking. at least that’s what i told myself.
She used to, and I guess that was alright, but knowing she was reading it meant I couldn’t blog about some of the things I really wanted to blog about, so I put on Xanga lock. But I hated it when she asked me questions about things I posted. I didn’t mind so much if she read it, I just didn’t like her trying to use it as a way to “figure me out”.
i would rather die.
I guess not
I think my mom can tell I’m pregnant by now….
so, nope. I don’t care, ha!
i think there’s a *hint* of cameltoe goin’ on up there….
Theo, I thought this was going to be the second blog in 2 days about older women bloggers, I’m glad it isn’t!
@saintvi - ha ha ha ha, where would be the fun in that? We’d all be blogging like a bunch of church people which is friendly (well, in some cases) but don’t you think it’d get a little boring?
———–
Mostly what I blog about here would be of no interest to my mom, she’d be bored. Unless I’m blogging about family, or her, or my new house, all these things I do blog about. I need to make a blog she can read and comment on, and also her sister, and my sister, and my nieces, that would be a lot more efficient then email, put it on friends lock, hey great idea Theo!
I’ve sent her every link collated by subject and title. her comment ” you talk too much.” I sent any old example of the more verbose and she lapped it up like kitties milk.
My mother is technologically challenged. She understands how to use “the email,” but this stuff is way too complex. My dad has a facebook, but we have an unspoken, mutual agreement to not add eachother as friends.!
It’s the internet. You shouldn’t put anything on it that you’re not comfortable with the whole world reading, Moms included. HA.
no she doesn’t know how to use the computer that well anyway.
Wouldn’t bother me.
Both of my parents have occasionally commented on what I’ve written. It’s kinda nice to get some real-world feedback from people I love and respect.
Would you like sharing a room with your mum?
I’d rather not. There isn’t anything particularly mom-hostile on it, but it’s just a relatively private space for me to think. Plus, I do a lot of my worrying and ranting on my posts, so I’d get mom answers for things you don’t really want them for XD
It wouldn’t be the end of the world, but that would also mean having to be careful what I wrote from then on. I’m really paranoid. Actually I’d probably just change my name so she wouldn’t find it again, hahaha.
She just did for the first time the other day when I linked it to facebook. Not the best idea considering I have over 6 years worth of entries that range from sex adventures, drinking binges, ex-GF rants and bathroom humor. Oh well. I’ve always tried to blur the line between my reality and my internet presence. I guess allowing my mother to read is te next step in erasing that line.
Oh yes, yes I would. In fact there are few things that would make me happier if it were possible, and likely few things that would make her happier.
Well….My site is about my eating disorder and how I am currently active in it. So…..no.
No
Definitely not!! She has read my site in the past, many years ago, and that didn’t go over so well. My Facebook is another story, she can look on there all she wants.
Not really. It’s bad enough she’s on Facebook.
I wouldn’t care. She’d annoy me with her constant comments though like she does on facebook.
Hell no!
The bitch left me and my brother along time ago, I would hope she reads my blogs. I would want her to read the pain.
My mother is dead, so I don’t really mind if she reads. But she probably has better things to do.
not really, because she’d be calling me all the time O.o. but it wuldn’t be too bad
I don’t think my mom would be supportive of anything I wrote. She wasn’t in real life why should she be now that she is gone.
I wouldn’t want anyone I know in real life reading mine.
I could care less. My mom is awesome and I could say anything, sure she’d probably lecture me about some things, but I’ve done so much wrong when I was young, that I’m sure nothing I could say now would surprise her. I love my mother.
The aboriginal abridged Replica Cartier Watches that showed two time zones launched in the aforementioned year was theirs. The aboriginal watch with anti-magnetic backdrop was their accession to the world. Replica Tissot watches crystallizes all the avant-garde ability of the aboriginal company.
She always read mine.
A better question Dan, is “would you want my mom reading your Xanga site?”
I would not mind…I think she would be smart enough to handle it. She knows I was no saint and am a good person and hopefully a good son.but definetly had rough edges and marched to the beat of a different drummer….and she already about my sexual explorations as a youth and is well aware of my faults and strengths. Honestly I do not think she would want to read it…I am not her kind of writer. Her favorite is James Michener. I don’t think I am in his league…LOL…
my mom does read my xanga, hahah. doesn’t matter to me!
Heeeeell naw
It would be a little embarrassing… But not the worst thing in the world.
No..
I used to, but I’m not as cool with it anymore. Oddly enough, I’d feel better about it if she came to my site, read it, and commented. However, her reading usually extends to whatever she gets updated about via email. That makes it entirely too easy for me to forget that she’s been reading everything I write. I’ve decided, for the time being, to block her while I get back in the swing of writing.
I send my mom my posts sometimes. not all of them.
She had when I first tarted at times—she’d read over my shoulder as I typed… or ask what I wrote…
Now, I think she’s forgotten I have it…
Probably not.
No. I don’t like anyone who knows me (a bit ironic) reading my personal thoughts, and I would not want my mom to see how I’m much more depressing and pessimistic than she thinks.
Kind of the same as goes for my facebook. Find out whatever you want to find out, just don’t whine when you do. Mad times we live in. Get the fuck over it (excuse my french referral to a sea lion)
No…besides it would hurt her feelings since some of my commentary is about her lack of parenting and nurturing skills….
My mom most likely wouldn’t understand it (her english isn’t too great), but I still wouldn’t want her to read it anyway. Even if she were to understand it literally, I don’t think she would be able to mentally relate because she has a very different mindset than I do. I also don’t want her to read it because then I wouldn’t post as honestly..
you just wanted to use that picture again!!!
Honestly, I wish I was closer to my mom. But Im not. So this is mostly my space that my family does not read. (or really know about)
Both of my parents read my site regularly. My dad (Roadkill_Spatula) blogs more frequently than I do.
no.
I wouldn’t. I don’t bash her or anything, but there are certain things that I post in surveys and shit that I just need to get off my chest, but I don’t want to talk to my family about them.
@saintvi - That’s a good philosophy to have! However, people blog for different reasons. I started my Xanga as a personal diary to be shared with people whom I don’t know. I connect with people who are going through similar struggles. It gives me encouragement and helps me keep persevering in life. I also don’t feel so alone.
No, I think she’d be very emotionally hurt.
my real mom and her new partner read it, and my step mom and my dad, all have Xanga.
Yes. If she were reading my Xanga site, it would mean two things. 1) She would know me much better as a person. 2) She would still be alive.
Hah. Hahahaha. Haaaahahahahaha.
I created my blog specifically because my old one had created so much family drama that my father stopped calling me. So that’s a NO.
@nyfemme - … Yeeeah. Just had this discussion with a member of my family, whom I changed my blog name and turned off RSS feed to try to tactfully avoid. Didn’t work. Apparently we’re family, so everything I write is fair game, even if it’s intended for anonymous eyes only.
No thank you.
no no no!
fuck no
hahahahahahaha all my recent stuff is creative writing anyway, so not really, though nothing is that bad. except my one erotica post…
My mom does read my Xanga, and I don’t mind. I don’t write things I don’t want people to see.
Comments (125)
NO FUCKING WAY
she does sometimes but it kinda makes me uncomfortable
Ha. All she’ll do is yawn.
No. No. No. No. No.
She has on occasion. I don’t think she has for quite awhile though.
I don’t have much to hide. Though I haven’t given her the link, lol. I’d rather her not read my angsty college entries.
WELL.
The bitch is six feet under.
So… yeah. xD
Noo
yep and she loves it
Don’t care.
my mom and dad both do….my mom finds it boring but my dad reads everyday. he even gives me ideas.
Not much on my site, so no reason why not.
My mom and I are pretty open about everything. So, it wouldn’t bother me much. She knows that I have a blog, but probably wouldn’t be able to navigate it very well.

My mom already knows all about me, good and bad, and including my outside-the-mainstream ideas too. BUT she has NO computer and only sees what I show her on mine about once a week. Does this qualify me as a control freak?
Hell no.
She reads it and leaves nice/encouraging comments from time to time.
ah, noes
Definitely not.
She knows I have a blog…. she’s just too technologically impaired to understand how to get to Xanga to read it!
I wouldn’t mind. She wouldn’t comment or talk to me about what she reads. She knows that if I wanted to tell her personally then I would of just made tea for the both of us and spilled everything. It’s just how we are. But she knows I have a xanga and I write frequently but she doesn’t care to read it, since it’s my personal space.
I started my xanga as a way to keep in touch with my family, so no problem. I am careful about what I post, though. Sometimes I wish everyone blogged as if their mom was reading it.

But at one time she was stalking me on Xanga, so that’s when I created my alternate site. She’s not my Facbeook friend anymore because of her creepy stalking habits. It doesn’t seem like she’s noticed yet though . . .
nope, but I have an inkling that she does anyway, oh well, she knows I enjoy drinking and blogging – could be worse.
nice choice of pictures by the way. I’m glad my mom’s not a milf.
Hahaha I’ve had, like, 239432, so I don’t think she would be particularly interested or able to read them all. Also, I’m pretty much old enough to say what I want these days. She would’ve had a better time when I started with it at 13. It’d be more manageable back then, too.
For me, its not a matter of whether I want her to or not.

Theo, I thought this was going to be the second blog in 2 days about older women bloggers, I’m glad it isn’t!

@prettynpink628 - I love hearing that!
btw, whose mom is that Theo? hubba hubba!
I’ve sent her every link collated by subject and title. her comment ” you talk too much.” I sent any old example of the more verbose and she lapped it up like kitties milk.

No. I don’t like anyone who knows me (a bit ironic) reading my personal thoughts, and I would not want my mom to see how I’m much more depressing and pessimistic than she thinks.
Kind of the same as goes for my facebook. Find out whatever you want to find out, just don’t whine when you do. Mad times we live in. Get the fuck over it
(excuse my french referral to a sea lion)
No…besides it would hurt her feelings since some of my commentary is about her lack of parenting and nurturing skills….
My mom most likely wouldn’t understand it (her english isn’t too great), but I still wouldn’t want her to read it anyway. Even if she were to understand it literally, I don’t think she would be able to mentally relate because she has a very different mindset than I do. I also don’t want her to read it because then I wouldn’t post as honestly..
you just wanted to use that picture again!!!
Honestly, I wish I was closer to my mom. But Im not.
So this is mostly my space that my family does not read. (or really know about)
Both of my parents read my site regularly. My dad (Roadkill_Spatula) blogs more frequently than I do.
no.
I wouldn’t. I don’t bash her or anything, but there are certain things that I post in surveys and shit that I just need to get off my chest, but I don’t want to talk to my family about them.
@saintvi - That’s a good philosophy to have! However, people blog for different reasons. I started my Xanga as a personal diary to be shared with people whom I don’t know. I connect with people who are going through similar struggles. It gives me encouragement and helps me keep persevering in life. I also don’t feel so alone.
No, I think she’d be very emotionally hurt.
my real mom and her new partner read it, and my step mom and my dad, all have Xanga.
Yes. If she were reading my Xanga site, it would mean two things. 1) She would know me much better as a person. 2) She would still be alive.
Hah. Hahahaha. Haaaahahahahaha.
I created my blog specifically because my old one had created so much family drama that my father stopped calling me. So that’s a NO.
@nyfemme - … Yeeeah. Just had this discussion with a member of my family, whom I changed my blog name and turned off RSS feed to try to tactfully avoid. Didn’t work. Apparently we’re family, so everything I write is fair game, even if it’s intended for anonymous eyes only.
No thank you.
no no no!
fuck no
hahahahahahaha all my recent stuff is creative writing anyway, so not really, though nothing is that bad. except my one erotica post…
My mom does read my Xanga, and I don’t mind. I don’t write things I don’t want people to see.
NOOOOOOOO.
