Take this as an opertunity to de-clutter. Everything you don’t actually use (and be honest with yourself about that) gets tossed in the trash/good will. The jacket in your closet, the extra-extra blankets, the pants 4 sizes too small, dump all of it.

Alternately, the mother who does do all those things and basically treats being a mother like her “job” is mocked as being a “helicopter parent” because GOD, it’s just raising a child, it’s not rocket science!

Shocker - a mom who makes lists, does Internet research, befriends and observes other mothers, and then applies what she’s learned on a daily basis is generally seen as a good mother. Just like you learn and excel at any other job.

How does someone get to the point where they think it’s acceptable to offer to buy shit off someone in order to stop their kid from crying? Take your damn kid aside and have a “not everything can be for you, honey” and if she continues to wail, take her the hell home. WHY IS THIS HARD???

You know what’s awkward? Having an acquaintances 6 year old grab at my charm bracelet and then relentlessly beg me for two of the charms off of it.

This is pent-up backlash from bigots who are furious that for 30 years, they actually had to look over their shoulder before telling a joke.

How to start your day like Mocena:

I don’t know why, but the condescention of this comment just makes me barf.

It’s been a long time coming, but I’m gonna go ahead and come out with it: I actually kind of love Kim Kardashian.

Why do people who don’t have allergies/dietary restrictions feel the need to play the “what would happen if you ate this” game? i have had two colon resection and there’s a bunch of shit I’m not supposed to eat. I probably won’t die if someone slips a little flour or dairy in my food but too much can be very painful…
