You may have noticed that at the time of this posting, I have two blogs, which are conceptualized as follows:
- In Clear Text - My professional blog on technology, training & communication strategies.
- Caution! May Contain Small Parts - My personal blog on parenting, which just happens to be by an IT professional.
Every once in a while these two worlds just happen to overlap. After all, I am the same person, and I can carry my experiences and what I learn from one realm over to the other. I do this in the real world probably far more than I actually express in the blog.
Today, however, I have a topic in my parenting blog that speaks to my philosophy of openness that bridges both worlds. As a teacher, programmer, an IT manager, a technology training coordinator and even a parent, I have always believed you should attempt to answer every question you are asked. You just need to adapt it to your audience.
Please note that as you enter my personal realm, the opinions I may express to my daughter are not those of my professional realm (i.e. What I say to my kid does not reflect an official opinion by my employer or my colleagues). I'm merely giving you a cute example of my philosophy of Explaining Things on Their Level.
