I feel like one of the things that ages me most is that I remember a time when Facebook was cool. Like, people other than your elderly relatives and your former classmate who is part of an MLM used to post on there on a regular basis. The highs, the lows, the house parties that …

On some levels, I understand the appeal of a Mom Facebook group. It’s a good way to find community when you’re moving to a new city and want to connect with local parents. When you’re a first-time mom, it can feel better to get advice from those who understand what you’re going through instead of …

We should all know less about each other. This mantra has popped up on Twitter recently, often in response to people sharing graphic personal details online that nobody asked for. With the advent of social media, we have become conditioned to share so much of our lives with strangers. We’re not just showing the shiny …

I understand the impulse to complain about your kids. In fact, I think it’s a necessary thing to do when you’re an overwhelmed parent whose frustrations are falling on deaf ears. However, I think there’s a time and a place to do so. Talking to a therapist about your kids? That’s an A+ venue. Confiding …

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 …

Helicopter parents are such an interesting breed and far more common than you’d think! I’m not talking about parents who want their kids to call them every day or share their location, although those are admittedly some markers of helicopter parents. I’m talking about the moms who have to call their adult sons every morning …

Boy Moms are some of the most notorious posters in the world. I don’t know what makes them so much weirder than girl dads, but they take their affection for their sons to a whole other level. Far too often, moms of boys act like they are doing something far more important than parents who …

‘No one wants to work’: Boomer small businessowner complains that they can’t find employees, pays $15 an hour with no benefits
You should always be suspicious of someone who says, «Nobody wants to work anymore.» If you’ve been around ambitious, motivated young professionals, you know that this is certainly not the case. Many people value working hard, and someone rarely wants to be unemployed for an indefinite amount of time out of laziness. Even people who …

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 …

If you’re in your local mom Facebook group, you’re probably not there for the community. You might’ve joined those groups thinking it would be a helpful forum to discuss relevant matters, but as time marches on, you know that that couldn’t be further from the truth. I’m in my hometown’s mom Facebook group for one …
