Moms! Wives! Women! Listen up! This post is for and about you.

If you’re tired of constantly meeting certain expectations, having to put your best foot forward, or fitting into a certain frame, remember that moms, wives, and women, too, can behave badly; if even just a little bit. This daily reminder comes from the ‘Moms Behaving Badly’ Instagram account, which, in their own words, is “saying what you are thinking.” Scroll down to find some of its best posts on the list below and take comfort in the fact that whatever daily aggravations you’re dealing with, you’re likely not alone.

Below you will also find Bored Panda’s interview with a licensed clinical psychologist and the Program Coordinator for the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at West Chester University, Dr. Lynn Zubernis, who was kind enough to answer a few of our questions about the power of online communities.

    That's a little rude...you could just leave. Also rude, but it's usually quieter. I just nope out if it's something I don't have to be doing, not like a boring meeting at work. Haven't worked up to noping out of work meetings yet. Yet.
