I judge other moms because it shows how your parenting skills by how they act,if their hairs curl and if the mother dress better then the child that’s an issue.

I absolutely adore Wendy, but if I have to listen to her lame “I don’t judge, but if I did here’s my list” bs again I am turning her off. That judgmental rambling is so poisonous….and YES you were very much participating.

Miss Wendy I was only slightly offended by your criticism of homeschooling. We just finished our first year. It was great! My son skipped 2nd grade and excelled at a level higher than your average 3rd grader. We live in one of the best schools systems in the country, but that doesn’t mean that our public school was the right place for him.
Moreover, homeschooling allowed us to spend more family time and we took some awesome field trips all over the country. As far as socialization is concerned, they are members of the Boys & Girls Club, where we ALL volunteer and do community service. Our children suffered academically and socially at public school, with subpar teachers and the stress of standardized testing. They are far more well-rounded and have far more academic and social opportunities than your average public schooler.
Homeschool may not be for everyone, but as an African-American mother of two, it was the best decision we ever made. I know what my children are learning. I know what level they are capable of excelling at. I am able to ensure they are learning about their heritage and culture. AND… Since their dad is working with clients constantly, when he does have those FREE pockets of time, they get to do things with their dad. Homeschooling works for SOME families.

First of all, let me say that I LOVE you and your show Wendy. You say what you mean and mean what you say and you don’t “talk for TV”.
To all the people commenting about certain “comments” that Wendy made – you said it yourself, it’s a comment, it is her opinion, her thought, her talk show. You always have the option to ever so kindly turn the channel if you’re not pleased.
-Yours Truly

I have to make a comment on a re-run show airing on Thursday June 17th, 2010 you made a comment about Judging mothers who homeschooling. You said kids need to have socialization. Well, I was homeschooled all of my highschool career. I greatly enjoyed it. There are a ton of homeschools groups that get together and do activities, field trips, and many other things that keeps their kids in the social circle of life. Please don’t knock something you really have no clue about. Yes, some parents fail at keeping their kids connected with the social world, but public school doesn’t always mean that kids get a healthy expeirence with socializing. What about Columbine, and other situations where the ‘outcasts’ lash out because they weren’t among the popular crowd? Homeschooling opens a wide range of oppurtunities for young people to really connect with others that don’t judge them because they are different. You can as any one of my friends if I have a social problem, and all of them would tell you “NO”. I am a very social person, and do not lack at all. In fact, being homeschooled allowed me to get on diet plan that helped me to lose weight and eat healthy, whereas if I had been in public school, as an overweight teen, I would not have developed such a lifestyle. In all, Wendy, I agree with most of your opinions, but this one I have to say you are completely off…

Currently, your show is re-run of “Judging Mothers”. Today is Thursday, June 17, 2010. First of all, I watch/listen to your show daily usually while doing house work. I enjoy the topics and their occasional controversy. That said, I have something to say regarding your comment about children still sleeping in bed with you after the age 3.
On Christmas Eve 2005, my daughter was 3 years old. From the time of her birth until that time, she slept in her own crib/toddler bed. Christmas that year, we woke up in the hospital recovering from over 20 hours of CO exposure. My daughter and I were lucky to have survived. Sad to say, her father did not. Since returning home, she insisted on sleeping with me. We have both gone through conseling for the past few years. The conclusion that the doctor came to is that she is frightened of waking up and I’m no longer there. It has been 4 1/2 years since the accident, and at times she still climbs into my bed. We both have been working on her security and she has been getting better, now instead of every night, it’s maybe once a week or less.
Please don’t judge certain situations unless you know the full extent of it. There are sometimes mitigating circumstances that cause a child insecurity that are beyond control, and it takes time, understanding, love and patience to overcome it.
