There’s a new policy in New York City that started in Brooklyn this weekend. Mayor Mike Bloomberg has been trying to crack down on illegal parking.
Talk about crackdown.

Well gee TGO How the hell would I know exactly what you do for a living? Sorry I don’t follow the life of TGO to a tee like some other people.
Anyway, I breastfed for two weeks. I wanted to continue but I physically couldn’t. And I do not wish to disclose the details. But it was seriously something completely beyond my control.
As for why I didn’t quit during my pregnancy, I have said it before, I was listening to my doctor’s advice not to quit cold turkey. Whether he was wrong or not, my friend’s doctor gave her the same advice so I figured since it worked out for her and her two children, maybe it’s good advice. So I cut back to 4-5 smokes a day (I rarely ever finish a whole cigarette anyway).
I started up again from the stress I was under with caring for a newborn essentially by myself. My boyfriend tries to help but it’s hard when he’s working from 3pm-1am. But I still do not smoke around her. So it’s not like I’m just some jackass who doesn’t care about her child, because I do. And I do everything I can for her. So don’t judge my parenting skills when you know nothing about them.
Karol.. I don’t like your Doctor.. smoking contricts the blood vessels and cuts off oxygen to the baby.. I know someone who gave birth to a stillborn baby because of that…. The loss was tremendous..
Next time.. just quit.. it’ll work out better than the alternative.
*ducks
you smoked while pregnant and then tried to justify it. doesnt sound like caring to much. especially when you dont get it through your skull that you probably gave her breathing problems AND more inportantly she could have been stillborn.
Katlizy, I’m planning on quitting soon. And I am trying believe it or not.
And TGO when will you get it through YOUR thick skull that this subject is old and you need to knock this shit off. If you want to sit and bash me, find something new because I’ve said all I am going to say on this subject. I don’t need to prove to you or anyone else how much I care about my daughter. Because she knows and that’s all that matters.
And point being she is perfectly fine. As is every single person I know who was born to a mother who smoked while pregnant. Now back the fuck off and get over it.
Karol, honey, really…stop defending and explaining yourself to these people. If they don’t get it by now, they’re not ever going to. I don’t know you from the man in the moon, but I’ve been to your site and from what I’ve read it’s as obvious as TGO’s mental retardation that you’re insane over your kid, so don’t sweat it. Just enjoy your baby and don’t fret about the rest.
Hey I smoke.. but if I was preggo I’d quit.. Just a note for next time.. thats all.
What you do is your business.
Which is why I just made that last post. It is completely obvious that TGO has a thick skull and can’t understand plain english even after reading the same thing over and over and over again.
I smoke. I smoked while I was pregnant. You can call me a bad parent all day long if you want but my daughter will completely disagree.
Sure, it’s not the smartest thing to do but if that’s the biggest mistake I make while raising her, I’ll consider both of us lucky.
It doesn’t make me a bad parent. It makes me a person that developed a very filthy, very strong addiction at a young age and I’ve tried to quit more times than I can count.
Nicotine is 50 times more addictive than heroine and once your body begins to rely on the drug, it’s nearly impossible to kill the addiction. I won’t go into it, but I’ve studied nicotine addiction intensively and even knowing the facts about how it affects your brain and mimics the body’s neurotransmitters doesn’t make it any easier to quit.
Anyway, that’s my two cents. Flame away.
obviously you do, otherwise you wouldnt be here trying to defend your undefendable actions.
she may be fine now because its too early to be sure.
and no, i won’t I make fun of idiots and well right now you are the biggest one.
no but it makes you a dumbass but that’s really not breaking news.
TGO You are seriously pathetic. You have to just keep falling back on the same old argument. And it’s not going to get you anywhere with me. I’ve said all I’m going to say on it so go ahead and think I’m an idiot. Like I care what some 30-somethin year old bitter queef thinks of me anyway.
it already did get somewhere. otherwise you wouldnt be here. i don’t know how many times i have to drive that point.
wow how many times have you said “thats all im going to say about this” but yet you keep defending yourself like a guilty person, and you will continue to defend yourself because your name was tarnished and you are doing everything in the world to erase that.
bitter? what what *I* have to be bitter about? there not one negative thing going on with me. oh i forgot im a 30 something who lives with his parents. (laugh) keep grasping for straws you are getting more amusing by the minute. its like owning your own marionette
Too bad no one listened to this good advice.
Honestly, I think there’s only one person I can think of that has been smart enough to stay out of all this bullshit!!
How goes it Joey? =)
1. Your doctor is a moron for telling you that you shouldn’t quit cold turkey. You should switch care providers.
2. There’s a reason you shouldn’t allow yourself to get pregnant when you’re not married. What are you going to do if he ever decides to walk out on you? Good luck with that.
3. My husband and I both work full time, and we both have plenty of time to take care of our kid… so please explain to me why it is so hard for him to help take care of it because he has a job?
Crys I don’t owe you any explainations on my life or my boyfriend’s life. And you’re a complete moron for saying someone shouldn’t get pregnant if they aren’t married. A lot of the best mothers I know are/were single mothers. You don’t NEED a fucking husband to have and care for a baby. You’re just another close-minded bitch.
Oh I completely agree with you on one thing- I know tons of single mothers who are great at it, but I also know that every single one of them complains about having to take care of the baby by themself.
And there you are stressed out because your boyfriend can’t help out more with the baby… Like I said, what would you do if he just got up and left?
I didn’t say that you needed a husband to take care of a baby. I just know that it helps to have someone there all the time to help take care of it.
Well I am perfectly capable of taking care of my daughter with or without her father. So I don’t worry about that. I do complain about him not helping out as much as he could, but I understand with his schedule. When he is at work those are her main awake / active hours. And she is almost always sleeping when he is here, so it’s rough until he finds a new job / different hours.
I think she is on some mind altering drugs
Which is my point exactly.
See now, I raised my kid ALONE.. and did just fine. The only thing I complained about was he DIDNT spend enough time with his kid, because regardless that his parents didnt get along and split up a yr later.. I still wanted him to have his father…
now I realized he is better off w/o him. i didnt need anyone to help me. It’s easier to do it on your own no one to fight with on how things get done, you are in control of the schedule on a daily basis..
sometimes it is better when they aren’t around.
his father has no contact with him at all? I just don’t get how any father could do that. If me and my wife ever split(which wont happen) i’d make sure i was a big part of his life.
He had that option and has blown it, now when he DOES try to call every few months I let it go to voice mail… technology is great.
When he did call my kids emotions were fucked for days..
well yea because it gives him hope that his father has time for him only to be let down again. I hate irresponsible fathers like that.
Well I atleast hope ya went to court for child support
