“Millennial Mom” Gets Honest About What Parenting Is Like, Here Are 50 Of Her Best Posts (New Posts)

This statement should have way more upvotes!

Plus, nobody actually knows how exhausted you can be until you are in that place. That goes for me not expecting to have twins and not sleeping more than 6 hours a night for over 18 months and counting, that goes for my husband before his sleep apnoea was diagnosed and treated, that goes for my sister who's busting her b*tt as a primary school teacher and almost had a burnout in her first year, and also for my best friend who keeps having one health issue after another. We all have a right to our exhaustion, and we all have a right to get support, not disrespect, for it. And... no one told us life was gonna be this way.

Works for dads too.

Replace the word mom with parents

No offense, but moms (and dads) chose to bring children into a severely overpopulated world, with apparently no thought about their children's futures in regards to climate change and overpopulation, while there are already MANY MANY children in this world that need families and homes. At this point, having your own children seems incredibly thoughtless, ignorant, and selfish. I extend my sympathy to your children, but not to you.

Amazing idea

This should be a thing 😃

Some people only want to see the world burn. Even if is as a ghost.

I like that idea.

I saw that Tshirt, too

Exactly. It's not 'babysitting' when you watch your own kids, it's simple parenting.

I hate when people say he "watched" the kids wtf? It's not watching them when a mom is home with them 22 hours out of the day.

watching your own kid is parenting.

my wife and I work at the same company but different shifts and when she returned to work a co worker asked her "who watches the baby when you are at work"? She replies in a confused voice "his father" like wtf why would you think anyone else would, mind you I work there and they know we are married and she still wondered who's watching the baby.

This is the kind of field-testing I want done on all my clothes

Can we appreciate how many people found it helpful???

That's amazing. I want a pair now too.

true story!

It's a law.

Omg... everytime

Me too.

I laughed out loud. If she could clean the coffee from my monitor too, that would be perfect.

Well my husband does the cooking and cleaning, so...

I think it's better to replace "she" with "they"...

Yay for me…

I had a sticker book lol

**triggered**

The only place I trusted to put my stickers were on my saxophone case. Good choice because I still have it!

My mom made sure I knew that if I put a sticker on something, that was the end of the sticker. It would never work anywhere else (at least not for long), so if I wanted to stick a sticker I had to BE ABSOLUTELY SURE that's where I wanted that sticker to be for the rest of my life. That anxiety kept me from putting stickers anywhere in her house forever.

Without complaining? I never had heartburn before my twin foetuses used to share my meals!

my 19 weeks old baby fetus has strong food preferences - chicken is everything ( I was vegetarian before pregnancy), fish is a big NO, and weirdly kiwis and cherries are amazing. Also NO to mushrooms.

Ah yes, those where the days.

To be fair, it's no different in grown ups, no matter the age...

What's worse is when they become adults this will somehow almost completely invert.

Actually I’m the one who could be home alone, and my older sister is the one who isn’t allowed to hold the umbrella. Yes, I said OLDER sister.

Lucky you, you'll find exotic creatures there.

That's absolutely hilarious! Watch out for the local dust bunnies! I hear they can be quite wild :)

🤣🤣😋

We could afford, with a few months of careful planning and a strict buget, to do this holiday as well.

Most likely safer than most other options.
