The Wildest Parenting Posts of the Week (March 18, 2024)

There is this weird parenting trend that I’ve been so baffled by when I’ve seen it on TikTok. I’m sure you’ve heard of parents deciding to never say «no» to their children but rather redirecting them towards the results that they (the parents) want. For example, when your child says, «Can I stick this fork …

25+ Fake Deep Posts Because We Live in a Society

The «fake deep» phase we all go through when we’re in middle school is a necessary phase of development.

When I was growing up, there were always a couple of kids whose parents went a little too far with shielding them from the world. They were the kids who didn’t watch SpongeBob, not because they didn’t have cable but because their mom thought he was an inappropriate influence. I have rewatched SpongeBob episodes at …

The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (February 6, 2024)

Do you think being a parent is selfless or selfish? That is one of those questions that I can’t quite answer in a straightforward way. On one hand, it is incredibly giving to put the well being of another person above your own dreams and desires. On the other hand, people do not have kids …

The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (January 30, 2024)

Parents and kids can agree on one thing: they never want the other to know every bad thing they’ve said about them when they’re not around. There are things I wrote about my mom in my diary as a kid that I pray to God nobody ever reads, her especially. I’m sure she’s said things …

I feel like one of the most significant contributing factors to the proliferation of wacky Facebook-driven conspiracy theories is boredom. People, especially parents whose kids are at school, get bored if they hang around the house all day, and their minds can wander in the most detrimental ways. If I had to clean a house …

Within every individual lies the desire to know juicy gossip. You might be somebody who claims they’re not about the drama. Still, I know that when it comes down to it, you aren’t going to ignore incredibly compelling and damning stories about your acquaintances you feel negatively towards. It’s in our human nature to seek …

‘Happy New Year, the misery never ends’: The cringiest cringe pics of the week (January 3, 2024)

The act of cringing might only last a moment, but cringe itself lasts a lifetime. As much as we’d like to deny it, we’re still thinking about a few select moments from our younger years that we can’t help but cringe about. For me, it’s throwing up on the school bus leaving my 8th-grade field …
