I Don’t Like My Kid’s Friends

Monday, December 29th, 2008

I am totally lucky in the fact that I think that all my daughter’s friends are a kick in the pants … er … except for one. I like to think that I have a high tolerance for weird behavior and kids that are normally considered “social rejects” but this kid, well this kid is just a jerk. I don’t allow her in my house anymore. I call it an act of self-love. Plus, I think it’s good to avoid situations where I want to verbally beat down a child for being mouthy and indignant (these are nice words to describe the behavior).

I don’t fault Paige for wanting to be friends with her though. I mean, she is totally funny in a way that characters in a Judd Apatow movie are funny. Teens love that. As an adult, it’s a nightmare to supervise. All you can do is send them home and never ever ever invite them over again.

And never make eye contact with their parents when you see them.

I like knowing that my fellow cohorts at Momversation totally avoid people who have kids like that. Makes me feel like I’m not alone.

Internet: Good Vs. Bad

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Rebecca, Dana, Maggie and I discuss the perils of “parenting in the Google age” in the following Momversation episode:

One of the things that was brought up was those “find your neighborhood sex predator” websites. I hate those things. I think they perpetuate fear. But then again, I’ve seen that Dateline: To Catch A Predator show and realize that there are big reasons to be scared. The volume of men out to take advantage of girls my daughter’s age is just frightening!

I know people look at those types of sites, but I am wondering what compels them, how does it make them feel, how does it change their actions or decisions?

If you don’t go to those websites, why don’t you? Is ignorance bliss? Are you being negligent as a parent?

In the interest of full disclosure, please note that product links redirecting you to other sites such as Amazon, BlueHost, Freshbooks and OpenSky may take you a purchase page of a company where I am a member of an affiliate program. As a result, I will often get a small percentage of the revenue or a commission off of something you have purchased. I am not otherwise paid to link to these sites, nor do I link to any products that I don't actually use or covet in real life. On the rare occasion I accept payment to review a product, it will be duly noted in its associated post.

Have no fear - you are under no obligation to buy anything to get the full enjoyment of this site. We can still be friends even if you never click on an affiliate link. Rest assured, this is all low pressure. I will never show up at your door with tiny vials of Avon perfume or trial jars of pearl cream to entice you. That said, I do truly appreciate when you do purchase something from a linked site - it all helps to keep the lights on and a roof over our heads.

You can also catch me vlogging at:

This site is hosted by BlueHost. They have good manners and never yell or make me feel like an idiot - even when I did that one thing which was very, very bad. I think they are swell.

This is the personal website of Giyen Kim. I use this space to let off steam and write exceedingly bad prose.

For all intents and purposes, I can be best described as a writer, foodie, web designer, humorist, and news junkie. I am also a big dreamer and lover of all people. This means you too.

And case you were wondering, yep that's me up there rockin the Buster Browns and modified Dorthy Hamill haircut. As you can tell, my parents were unusually cruel. This would probably explain why I spend most mornings hiding under the covers, wishing that it was Sunday.
