Here's an interesting post about mommybloggers using their actual names when they post, from BlogHer blogger Mary Tsao. The comments on the post caught my attention, too. Everyone's concerned about blogging and the question of protecting children. Many of us, including me, have husbands who prefer not to have their intimacies and foibles broadcast on the internet. Most bloggers blog anonymously, with fabulous front names. Because I blog with my full name, I definitely face real boundary issues. Sometimes I feel I can't be as revealing as I'd like about everyday life as a mom. Sometimes I wish I had an anonymous blog and could say whatever I wish, about anyone in my world. For me though, using my name keeps me honest.
