and your ACTIONS? :by allowing your blog to be published in a national newspaper, you’re indirectly opening your blog to people of every walk. though publicity is a good thing, i can understand that. but bear in mind that, are you still going by the concept “this site is directed at mature adults”? even though it’s everywhere in every page?

that’s the question. see i really like the quote which says “actions speak louder than words”. in this case, no matter how much you scream “this blog is only for mature adults”, is it going to work, now that it’s on national newspaper?

at the first place, if you really care bout the young being affected by your blog, your conscience should be telling you that putting up your blog address in a newspaper IS A CHOICE. you can actually choose NOT to put it up. publicity is good, but is exposing your thoughts to the young good? if you were more concern bout the young minds, you would have thought twice. therefore there’s no excuse to it.

in fact, giving a higher priority to your blog’s publicity rather than the minds of the young is selfish. you want your views and opinions to be expressed, but at the price of affecting the minds of the young? and you know, a mere line “this blog is only for mature adults” is not enough to keep the kids away.

A blogger writes what he/she wants to write, not what other people want to read.
