Smilie Saturday: Linky Love Weekend Roundup
It’s been an extremely busy week around here and I haven’t had much time to prepare new articles, so I wanted to point you towards some articles I’ve read that I believe you’ll find very interesting. I’ve been dealing with an odd little bump that suddenly appeared on my hand two weeks ago, and have been told by the doctor that it’s due to “overuse”, but he wouldn’t give me a doctor’s note that said I had to quit my job on “doctor’s orders”. Darn. 
One little side note. I’ve contacted a well-known expert in the area of child sexual abuse, and have suggested to him that he consider doing a Blog Tour to bring greater awareness to the prevalence of sexual abuse on children, the misunderstood subject of “mother blame” and things parents need to know to help protect their children. I’m happy to report that he is very interested, so stay tuned for more on that, as some people may have the idea that what I write regarding child sexual abuse is simply my personal opinion. Nope.
Weekend Roundup:

Writing Better Blog Post Titles is a Must Read for all bloggers and writers, as this is an area so many bloggers get wrong. Your post titles are one of the most important things to consider in order to pull subscribed readers into your articles, or to increase search engine traffic. Do not miss Lorelle’s article on how to write better titles for your posts.
Thanks to all you for your exceptional blog posts, I really enjoyed all of them.

Hi April, thanks for stopping by. These posts are really good, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy them all. I look forward to your comments on the child sexual abuse articles as well.
Lin thanks for including my sexual development post – the more that know what is appropriate development, the easier it is to recognise when things begin to suggest something else may be going on.
Great news about the blog tour too. I am really looking forward to it.
Happy to do it Megan, it’s a great post. I’m really looking forward to working with the child sexual abuse expert for sure, and do all I can to help him get the tour going.
Nice choices. But I got stuck on the post about TV.
It is good to know the disadvantages of watching TV too much. But how can we do that without so much argument with our kids?
I made a post about it, hope you can view it.
Thanks.
