It's great to see that a demographic that is so often ignored in the television industry (despite controlling 70% of the country's disposable income) is getting special attention and recognition from PBS.

I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I needed to ask. Does building a well-established blog like yours require a lot of work? I'm brand new to running a blog but I do write in my diary on a daily basis. I'd like to start a blog so I will be able to share my own experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it! Hey there! I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I needed to ask.

]]> Comment on Labels and Kids…Don’t call girls TOMBOYS by Susan Adcox http://boomergrandparents.com/blog/labels-and-kids-dont-call-girls-tomboys/#comment-8816 Susan Adcox Sun, 15 Apr 2012 03:48:56 +0000 http://boomergrandparents.com/?p=1829#comment-8816 You make some good points, although when I was a kid, I was sort of proud of being a tomboy. And about that definition in the Urban Dictionary. . . you know that site is created by the users, so the definitions are far from, um, definitive. Personally, I am less inclined to get upset about the tomboy label and more likely to get upset that everything designed for girls has to be pink and in a princess theme.

I also wanted a "different" type of grandmother name so there would be no confusion, as she also has 2 grandmothers & 2 great-grandmothers. It was her Daddy, my son-in-law, who helped choose "Mimi", & I LOVE IT!! My 4 y.o. granddaughter calls me “Mimi”, too!!
