Mom Guilt

in parenting •  9 years ago 

It's all too often said that moms are some of the most selfless people on the planet. We balance, manage and weigh everything right on our shoulders while at the same time being shamed on social media by moms who are living the mirror image life.
Mom shaming has become the new norm and is just as big if not bigger than the guilt that we carry daily. Women hop on social media to get the high of making other women feel horrible.
Is 1 kid enough? Is 5 too many? Work, stay home, work from home? The opinions are endless and so is the guilt.
Hang it up ladies!! The guilt you have shouldn't turn into the shaming of other people who are just trying to survive the same way you are.

You are operating under the impression I assume mothers are selfless. Perhaps you aren't talking to me, but I believe being a mom is a full time job. Having a child is not a selfless act, let alone raising one. Everyone has an emotional response to mothers because we all have one.

I don't understand why you would let people on social media shame you. Don't let people on the internet dictate how you feel. You are your own person. You aren't dictated by a person's perception of you through pixels, and you aren't judged through electronics

Well written
