The Wildest Parenting Posts of the Week (April 22, 2024)

I do not envy mothers who post their experiences online just to be judged for every move they make. I know I am part of this problem (don’t shoot the messenger), but I am constantly amazed at how many moms get eviscerated online for doing totally innocuous things I would never bat an eye at. …

The Wildest Parenting Posts of the Week (April 15, 2024)

I’m kind of obsessed with the intersection of moms who are super trad and moms who post their family’s entire life on social media for all to see. If you want to live on a homestead, homeschool your children, and make sure that they never eat any Red Dye 40 for as long as they …

‘The time of jacked nerd is here’: Fitness bros clown Mark Zuckerberg for video doing leg presses

Perhaps the most widely made fun of person on the internet is Mark Zuckerberg. It’s only right, seeing as he helped pioneer the cruel internet as we know it today. You can’t make a website asking people to rank college girls and not expect to get made fun of in turn. What goes around, comes …

The Wildest Parenting Posts of the Week (April 8, 2024)

I learn so many new things about parenting by looking at parenting fails. While some aspects of parenting are intuitive, there are about a million things that you need to learn about child-rearing before you actually have a baby.

Wholesome boomer husbands paint their wives, get applauded by the internet: ‘Wife guys have been the backbone of the art world for centuries’

Not too long ago, there was a trend on TikTok where couples would have a date night where they sit down and paint one another, then reveal the results to their partner.

Boneheaded dude claims all women look bad in baggy jeans, uses cousin as an example: ‘And tagged them in the post’

There’s nothing women love more than random men on the internet telling them they disapprove of what they’re doing. Especially what they’re wearing. It’s a long-held truth that the unprompted opinions of loser-y guys on Facebook dictate trends in women’s fashion. It’s how Coco Chanel invented the little black dress. Some guy wrote a column …

Happy April Fools Day, parents and non-parents alike! I’ve got to say, I feel like April Fools Day is an underrated holiday that’s way more fun when you have kids. Some kids might be on high alert all day, making sure that they don’t get pranked. For others, it’s extremely easy to tell them that …

‘We think our baby is a genius’: Moms share the Mommy Facebook Group posts that live in their heads rent free

Mommy Facebook Groups aren’t easy to forget. If you’ve lived in any community with a high concentration of families over the past ten years, you’ve probably been a part of one or at least seen some of the nonsense that they produce on social media. In my hometown, our Mom Facebook Group was legendary as …

The Most Entertaining Parenting Posts of the Week (March 25, 2024)

Boy moms are such an interesting group. I’m not talking about normal mothers who happen to have only given birth to members of the male gender; I’m more referring to moms who wrap up a large part of their identity in being the mother of a boy, which is just so different than mothering girls. …

‘Sigurd Felix Wolfgang Atreides goes hard’: Mom shares the craziest baby names from her pregnancy Facebook group

It is a truth universally acknowledged that many weird baby names are circulating right now. I know that it can be old hat to make fun of baby names that are spelled strangely or are just nouns, but I can’t help it. I genuinely do not see the point of naming your kid something absurdly …
