This is so right on! It's true - mommy bloggers are so often seen as pushover who just sit around hoping for a free sample to be thrown their way. For me, my blogs are ways to reach out to people not only with my viewpoints but to people searching for answers that I may have found. In my case, raising families chemical-free. It's something I take very seriously. One thing that bothers me is receiving PR email asking me to write articles for them (for free) when the PR person hasn't even visited my blog except to snag my email address. But I believe we'll be heard more strongly as time goes on. Because this is one group that isn't going away!

By the way, the mommy blogger community has become very valuable to me as a support system and a wonderful group of friends! Never would I have guessed what it would become to mean to me.
